This Acoustic Glitch was a 2011 freebie from Liverpool's the Wombats, an EP handed out as a download on the band's website alongside their second album, This Modern Glitch. The idea is simple: take a pair of songs from that record, strip away the studio gloss, and see what's left standing.
Quite a lot, it turns out. Unplugged, Matthew Murphy's knack for wry, anxious hooks moves right to the front, with Tord Øverland Knudsen and Dan Haggis, the trio that had been together since the band formed in 2003, keeping things loose and intimate behind him. It's a small, unpretentious thing, and it proves the songs were sturdy enough to survive without the electricity.
