“Kill The Director” by Wombats

"Kill the Director" first surfaced in 2007 on the Wombats' Go POP! POP! POP! EP, and the English indie rockers got two runs at the UK Singles Chart out of it: it reached number 35 on its first release, then came back in 2008 as a download and a seven-inch sold only through the band's website, entering at 93 on downloads alone before climbing to 48 once the physical copies arrived.

Matthew Murphy wrote the words and shares the music credit with Dan Haggis and Tord Øverland-Knudsen; Stephen Harris produced it with the band and Rich Costey mixed it. The reissue came dressed up with B-sides worth hunting down, covers of the La's' "There She Goes" and Leona Lewis's "Bleeding Love" plus "Sunday TV", while the first go-round had offered "Metro Song", a KUT FM acoustic session and a remix by CSS.
