The Wombats have unveiled their latest single ‘X-Rated’, featured on the extended version of their sixth studio album, ‘Oh! The Ocean’, which is set for release via AWAL Recordings on 5th December.
Dan Haggis describes ‘X-Rated’ as “an upbeat summery pop tune about going through rough patches in a long-term relationship and trying to figure things out. Vampire Weekend meets Harry Styles on a cruise ship wearing really loud shirts with love hearts on.”
The extended version of ‘Oh! The Ocean’ will include the original tracks alongside new recordings by John Congleton. The band will return to the UK in December for an arena tour, visiting cities they missed earlier this year.
