Music Monday - The Wombats | The story of a girl who lives above her means

The Wombats

I thought it was only fitting that The Wombats featured on Music Monday beens I am off to see them tonight at Hammersmith Apollo. I have seen them once before quite a few years ago at Koko just after "Lets dance to Joy Division" was released. That is still one of my favourites, it never fails to get me dancing!

I love The Wombats because they make fun music. Its fast and furious and always makes you want to shake your little bum. A favourite for me to listen too while I'm getting ready for a night out. Really does get you in the mood for dancing! They are amazing live and really know how to get the crowd going.

I am ashamed to say that I have not heard much of their new album, only the singles released on XFM. I am too scared to illegally download and not had the money to invest in any new music. But I am sure it will be amazing just like the rest of their material. I am looking forward to hearing some new songs tonight but also hoping that they play some of the oldies!

I leave you with my favourite, "Lets dance to Joy Division". Give them a listen!
