Sex With Strangers Music Waste Performance

After an incredibly fun evening performing as part of this year's Music Waste festival, we wanted to repost a few photos taken by the one and only Lindseysdiet photography. The night was a blast, the event organizers were great, the bands all played well and Sex With Strangers had a brilliant show! Sure the sound could have been a bit better but for a makeshift venue it had excellent atmosphere and a great crowd. Cheers to Petroleum Byproducts and Adjective for making the evening complete!

Here's a couple photos taken by Vancouver's own Lindseysdiet, you can see more at her page: lindseysdiet.com.

Once again, extra special thanks to Lindsey of Lindseysdiet.com for the photography, and kudos to the people of the Music Waste festival. An extremely fun night!

Stay tuned for information regarding our first Boutique Empire anniversary party coming up in August,

Sex With Strangers review in Exclaim!


Wednesday Jan 28th-2009:

Canada's Exclaim! magazine has just reviewed Sex With Strangers The Modern Seduction album: proud to say it seems a very favourable article!

It reads:

RECENTLY REVIEWED

Sex With Strangers
The Modern Seduction
by Romina Wendell

A full-length follow-up to their debut EP, A Future Tragedy, The Modern Seduction is another dose of Sex With Strangers' raw new wave sound. Their effects-soaked kick drums and vocals further their tale of a dystopian future where partiers are forced underground by a totalitarian regime. Lead vocalist and keyboardist Hatch Benedict and bassist Magus Magnum are joined by guitarist Cory Price and vocalist Isabelle Dunlop, and the anthemic push of most of their tracks and Benedict's punk-edged delivery set the mark for a vigorous live show. Impressively, their lyric-less electronica numbers, such as "The Turning Point," offer the same rhythmic push as the group's thrashier rock outs, illuminating a wider breadth of potential beyond the robot rock niche the group have currently carved out for themselves.
