The Wombats Tickets

The Wombats rolled out and into the UK's musical scene at the start of 2003. The band's angsty lyrics and poppy melodies were the perfect combination for young teens across England, making them a sensation within five years. The band's music is surprisingly upbeat and creates an almost ironic background to the otherwise sardonic content of its songs. The band's second album,

This Modern Glitch

, was released seven years after the band's debut, and it has since solidified them as a band with substantial fan backing. In spite of its commercial success, The Wombats have been known to frequent smaller venues and clubs around the world in addition to performing at renowned festivals like the

Austin City Limits

in Austin, Texas.
