The Wombats Announce New EP 'Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This?' Out November 18, 2022

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Fresh from topping the charts with their first UK number one album, Fix Yourself, Not The World, playing their biggest ever global headline tour which included sold-out shows in NYC and Los Angeles, and a slot at Chicago's Lollapalooza last month, today continue their remarkable return with the announcement of their new EP Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This? The six track collection will be released on November 18 digitally and on vinyl.

Recorded shortly after completing their acclaimed fifth studio album, Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This? is The Wombats rawest material yet, trading polished synths for spiky guitar riffs and heavy choruses. Bassist Tord Øverland Knudsen took the files back to his homeland of Norway, producing and mixing much of the EP himself in his home studio.

The announcement comes accompanied by a new single in the form of the eponymous "Is This What It Feels Like To Feel Like This?," available now here. Blending The Wombats' trademark infectious energy with an earworm of a riff, frontman Matthew "Murph" Murphy explains how the single came about: "I remember driving past an extremely rundown hotel and wondering what the hell could be going on in there, and that's where this song was born. It's about catching someone in a compromising situation that's very unusual for their specific character and is far more fitting for your own."
