Westway (The Glitter & The Slums) is the debut studio album from Australian band Sticky Fingers, first released in 2013. The album introduced listeners to the group’s distinctive blend of indie rock, reggae, dub and laid-back psychedelic grooves, quickly establishing them as one of Australia’s most exciting emerging bands of the decade.

Recorded with producer Maguire, the album captures the band’s loose, sun-drenched sound and introspective songwriting. Frontman Dylan Frost delivers a mix of raw vulnerability and swaggering charisma across the record, while the band’s rhythm-heavy arrangements fuse rock guitars with reggae-influenced basslines and atmospheric keyboards.

Standout tracks such as “Gold Snafu,” “Australia Street,” and “These Girls” helped propel Sticky Fingers into the Australian indie spotlight, combining catchy hooks with a relaxed coastal vibe that resonated strongly with fans. The album’s mix of upbeat grooves and reflective moments captures the spirit of youthful freedom, late nights and urban storytelling.

Pressed on vinyl LP, Westway (The Glitter & The Slums) remains a defining early release from Sticky Fingers and an essential record for fans of Australian alternative and reggae-influenced indie rock.
