The Wombats - This Modern Glitch

Review by Dannii Leivers

Taken in context it’s a fun, immediate sugar-rush of a listen. »

'this modern glitch' was recorded through 2010 over three sessions with separate producers, all in l.a. first, jacknife lee brought his precise technological nous, followed by eric valentine who helped the band put together 'tokyo (vampires and wolves)' and 'techno fan'. muse knob-twiddler rich costey joined forces with additional creative input from tv on the radio's dave sitek and john hill (santogold, m.i.a., devo) to complete a record that will shock, impress and spin opinion on this most uncompromising of 21st century pop bands. the album even finds rooms for a guest appearance courtesy of jane's addiction guitarist dave navarro on 'girls / fast cars'.
