The Wombats will be back next year with a new album and European tour.

On April 6th, ‘Glitterbug‘ is released after recording sessions in London and inspiration in Los Angeles, and will be complimented with European dates starting with a UK run a day before the LP’s release.

“That became the main inspiration for most of the songs, this false world that I’d created for myself,” frontman Matthew Murphy reveals. “As time progressed, I’d go to L.A. more and more, and the idea kept on building. The album’s about the envy and the struggle and the pretence and the worry and the fear that L.A. – and every major city in the world – encompasses.”
