T-SHIRTS AND RECORDS FOR SALE!

about the album

Sam/ Feel It Records.

"A Sydney-borne future classic in the making.

Downer synth-pop stylings that have New Order as a clear point of reference, but infuse the stuttering drum machines and shimmery guitars with a very Australian sense of anti-romantic fatalism. Some smart production brings these well-crafted poppers into the hi-fi field they belong in.
Featuring members of Aloha Units, Natalia And Her Naptime and Houseband. Originally released on Paradise Daily Records.

Incredible ten track 12" from Australian synth punks SEX TOURISTS. I'd place this somewhere between the excellent, postpunk leanings of fellow Aussies ORION and the fine tuned, pop-inflected hits of TOTAL CONTROL. A serious contender and one of the best Aussie releases that I've heard in recent memory. Trust me, if this is your thing, you'll get plenty of spins outta this one."


Max Easton - Difficult Fun, 2018.

"Live performances fell into disarray as messes of cables and sequencers failed to communicate. Finley would stare deflated as sections of songs would repeat out-of-control, waiting patiently for something human to reign in the beats. When Sex Tourists would land on a track, even just for a chorus before it all derailed again, there was an indescribable power that I hadn’t been as affected by since bands like Orion or Royal Headache (Sydney bands who somehow united members of vastly opposed musical ideologies, suggesting something universal). It was ‘Guts’ that stuck out the most, a club hit soaked in pity, with Finley gazing in confusion at the happiness that surrounded him and asking, “Who has the guts? / Who wins the prize, smiles, and laughs?” - Max Easton, Difficult Fun 2018.
