September 19th saw The Wombats play to a seriously raucous crowd at Chicago’s Park West venue. Supporting their latest successful US release Jump into the Fog the guys played to their largest Chicago crowd yet.

Cooling their heels on their successful UK career, The Wombats are now gathering pace in the US, picking up new fans with every show - which are getting bigger and bigger. Currently promoting their second album, This Modern Glitch, which was released in the UK in 2011, the band's set included tracks from this, and 2007 debut, A Guide To Love, Loss & Desperation - such as 'Let's Dance To Joy Division' and 'Backfire At The Disco'.
