Wombo (2024)

Louisville, KY

Post-punk wunderkinds Wombo have been masterminding psychedelic fairy tales since 2016. Their sophomore album Fairy Rust garnered praise from Pitchfork and UPROXX with a spellbinding fusion of folkloric lyricism and artful distortion. The title track of the band’s latest EP Slab evokes a moody dance floor scored by a funky bass line and scratchy string blasts.
