Divine Schism: Wombo
Advertisement
Wombo are back! The Kentucky post punk trio have a a new album - Danger in Fives - and we're thrilled to be bringing them back to Oxford for a show in the Bullingdon’s front bar Little Bully for another mesmerising set full of taught and beautiful post punk with some of the best guitar work you're likely to see.
Wombo’s third album, Danger in Fives, isn’t a reintroduction; it’s a reminder. Throughout Danger in Fives, Wombo — the Louisville-bred three-piece of Sydney Chadwick (bass/vocals), Cameron Lowe (guitar), and Joel Taylor (drums) — not only enhance their formula, but routinely perfect it. The 11 tracks on Danger in Fives fine tune Wombo’s enchanting alchemy while firmly pushing the band into new territory. Maintaining the confidence of Wombo’s last full-length, 2022’s Fairy Rust, Danger in Fives reconnects with the intuition that led their wild experiments on the 2020 debut LP Blossomlooksdownuponus. Wombo’s gauzy take on post-punk — characterized by a looming darkness which Chadwick jokes is “inevitable” in their music — floats between unexpected riffs and lived-in melodies.
This show will be in the front bar of the Bullingdon, which is wheelchair accessible, and is all ages - with under 14s accompanied by an adult.
