The Wombats’ much-celebrated debut LP, ‘A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation’, is set to receive a digital and vinyl reissue for its 15th anniversary.
Featuring key staples of the Liverpudlian indie-rockers discography, including ‘Moving To New York, ‘Kill The Director’, and ‘Let’s Dance To Joy Division’, the rerelease will land on a new eco-friendly digital format on November 8th, including five bonus tracks, new artwork, and audio recordings from the band. A vinyl pressing will be shared on April 28th next year.
The record kicked off a huge career for The Wombats, and their momentum hasn’t stalled since – the trio performed their biggest-ever headline show this summer, with Dork’s review lauding the show as, “the most fun you’re likely to have at London’s O2 this year”. The group’s new EP, ‘Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This?’, will also arrive later this month (November 18th).
