Cast your minds back to 2007: Gordon Brown became Prime Minister and Nancy Pelosi was elected the first woman to serve as Speaker of the House, meanwhile, we were sporting band t-shirts and button-down cardigans from New Look, and begging our mum to play our A Guide To Love, Loss & Desperation CD in the car.

The Wombats — made up of vocalist and guitarist Matthew "Murph" Murphy, percussionist Dan Haggis, and bass guitarist Tord Øverland Knudsen — are one of the UK's most popular indie rock acts.

The band's debut studio album A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation hit the shelves in 2007, and peaked at number 11 on the UK albums chart. The album blessed us with four top 40 singles, such as Kill the Director and Moving to New York.

The Wombats' second album – which we distinctly remember borrowing from our friend before a Duke of Edinburgh camping trip – came out in 2011, and it was titled The Wombats Proudly Present This Modern Glitch. This sophomore album landed at number three on the UK charts, and spawned the hits Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves), Jump Into the Fog and Anti-D.

Despite having formed in the early 2000s, there's certainly still the appetite for The Wombats in 2025 as the Tokyo singers have announced their second tour for 2025, with tickets on sale this morning.
