The indie alternative rock is now one of the most important musical styles around the world, but if there is a place where this movement is more important not only because there are so many people that follow it but also because there are many bands that are born it is in England. One of the most important representatives of this style is, undoubtedly, The Wombats.
This group was founded in 2003 in Liverpool (home of no others than The Beatles) and is composed by Matthew Murphy, Dan Haggis and Tord Øverland-Knudsen. The three members met at the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts and soon became friends and started to jam together. Obviously the results were much better than what they had imagined, and in 2006 they already released their first single, called “Girls, Boys, and Marsupials” which ended becoming an LP that was released only in Japan.
This production began to attract attention but the top of his career was not until they released the single “Let´s Dance To Joy Division”. This song became famous around the world and started playing on the radio and clubs and was remixed by many artists. This song catapulted them into the mainstream and they were able to do a European tour which ended in a show at the Liverpool Academy, one of the places where most recognized bands in the world are presented.
But as if this were not enough, they also managed to win the prize NME Best Dancefloor Filler with the song “Let´s Dance To Joy Division”. With this award under their possession, everybody started talking of them and they ended up becoming one of the representative groups the indie alternative rock.
