A debut album Limbo, Panto was released in the UK on June 16 2008 with strong critical endorsement. Their second album is due out in September 2009.

The four boys of Wild Beasts aren’t concerned with being of the modern, or being of the renaissance, being baggy pantsed or being tight pantsed, being in a scene or being in a place. Wild Beasts’ music just is.

They write beautiful, intriguing, slightly offbeat but incredibly catchy pop music.
