Melbourne-based post-punk/alt-rock provocateurs Sex Mask release their debut EP, No Love. Alongside the EP release, the band releases their new single of the same name, ‘No Love’, which comes out as a double A-side with a re-release of ‘TV Movie’.
On the ‘No Love’ single, the eclectic trio Sex Mask delivers a tumultuous and raw track, landing at the cross-section of industrial rock, breakbeat, punk, nu-metal and spoken word.
Speaking about the ‘No Love’ single, Wry Gray (frontman) said:
“When your girl doesn’t text you back, just like all those jobs and people who aren’t here now, what do you do? You cross the abyss my boy, you make money in the dark lands of the early morning.
It’s a reflective journey nonetheless fraught with ignorance but you grow, you mutate.
Disenchanted exhalations of hungry ghosts, the unsatisfied and a young man.
Time to time and lastly constantly
Know, I will want to see.”
Also announced today is a third in the series of double A-Side 7” vinyls, ‘TV Movie / No Love’. This physical release will be out exclusively to Rough Trade.
In May 2025, Sex Mask embarked on their first UK and European tour, including an emphatic headline London show at The Lower Third.
