The Wombats
Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life
Kobalt
ADDS 2/27/18
DIGITAL ONLY

 
“...packed with anthemic hooks” – Pitchfork

 “Grade A purveyors of electric live sets...blending pop, electro and rock sensibilities” – Entertainment Weekly
 
The Wombats have been in the game since 2007, but perform with the verve and joy of a band just starting out...”– SPIN

“A unique combination of electropop and post-punk styles” – Boston Globe
  
"Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life is still very much The Wombats alt-rock, but also bordering on post-punk, just with intermittent pauses for melodramatic pop-rock. The highs of the drums in “Ice Cream”, “White Eyes”, “Lethal Combination”, or “Turn” are worth every second of the muddiness, though." - QRO

"this album is all about massive bangers. Opener ‘Cheetah Tongue’ is a psych-rock belter that will feel right at home at your nearest festival main stage. Meanwhile Strokes-esque swagger throws its weight around on ‘I Only Wear Black’, and ‘Dip You In Honey’ revels in sunny Madchester vibes." - NME

"It's a sad album really, but it's played so triumphantly. You have to wonder what Murphy is feeling here. I guess having a rock band can have its perks. It's an outlet for the writer and the performer. Luckily for the listener, we get to siphon off some of this catharsis as well. Many of us have dealt with heartache, but it's never been this pleasant before." - PopMatters
