‘Australia is blessed with a number of electro pop male duos and another has arisen in the form of sounditout. Their self-titled EP is a fantasy of shifting moods and rhythms.’ (BMA Mag)
‘Overblown, glammed-up electro-rock to challenge The Presets’ (Inpress Magazine)
“These boys are a serious force to be reckoned with.” (3D World)

Ground breaking! sounditout are in one word brilliant. Their EP is cool and unconventional and their sound is something we've never heard before. (www.mediasearch.com.au)
Dance release of the month for sure - amazingly high in quality and production. This is the album you will put on and impress all your mates. (The Place, July 2009)
A Sydney duo made of equal parts cloak and daggers, smoke and mirrors, menace and mystery, sounditout make magic out of mushrooms and conjure dance from the dead with an inspired take on modern machine music.

Jason King and Jeremy Green have been carving the sounditout sonic niche for around two years and have distilled that niche into the form of an electric 6 track self-titled EP, OUT NOW on Undercover Music’s Yep! Records through MGM.

First single ‘Die Young Tonight’ opens the EP, taking proto-industrial textures and welding them to a galley of future-pop vocal hooks, while Distraction takes a shifting rhythm, throbbing bassline and tense build into a breakdown of titanic proportions before blowing wide open into an exhilarating, jacking, techno pop chorus.

‘Control’ is a queasy futuristic-lullaby made from haunting atmospherics and a power struggle, while ‘Circumstance’ does nothing to subvert the anxious, foreboding air over the entire EP, with Green’s regal, compelling vocal darting around King’s bold, dark synth lines and cold atmospherics. Latest single ‘The Russian’ closes out the EP and weaves a tale of gallant curiosity atop a bed of robo-refrains and paranoid spacedance. Look out for the video directed by Jesse Allan.

Staking out the ghosts in the machines and exorcising their fiendish hum, sounditout have crafted a sound that’s distinct, melodic and twisted, but undoubtedly their own. But ultimately, sounditout are here to make you dance, and that they will, even if you do it with one eye over your shoulder.

With two tracks (‘Control’ and ‘Distraction’) from their self titled debut EP featured on Australian Surfing Life’s milestone surf movie Sumbawan Supertrip plus remixes for The Presets (‘Kicking And Screaming’) , Infusion (‘2 Game Player’) & Zoot Woman (“We Wont Break”), Sydney’s Northern Beaches electro rockers sounditout are about to make a big splash on the local electronic scene.

sounditout launched their EP to a sell-out crowd at the Oxford Art Factory in Sydney on Saturday July 11th and have been booked for shows at Candy’s Apartment (Friday August 28th) not to mention supporting the inimitable Peaches (in DJ mode [their recent ‘influences mix’ for 3D World received rave reviews]) on Friday September 18th 2009 at Home.
