Liverpool indie rockers The Wombats have dropped their new single “Blood On The Hospital Floor“ and its accompanying video.
The track is taken from their sixth studio album, Oh! The Ocean, which will be released on February 21, 2025. Pre-order your copy here.
According to the press, Oh! The Ocean grooves with social anxiety, internal strife and the tribulations of LA life, where Murph lives. Once again they provide escapism from the mundane with songwriting that has profound meaning to audiences in turbulent times, packaged in the band’s deceptively cuddly and playful façade.
The record marks a new era for the band, moving away from previous synthetic sounds to embrace a warmer-blooded approach. Alongside familiar sounds they explore new genres from glistening tech rock to sci-fi pop, futuristic fuzz rock to bluesy rock’n’roll, with touches of disco and hip-hop-inflections.
Watch the James Slater-directed video below.
