Tourist History is the debut studio album by Northern Irish indie rock band Two Door Cinema Club.
Their 2010 debut album, Tourist History, bursts at the seams with pensive confessions disguised as infectious club anthems, including indie hit “What You Know” and the aforementioned “Something Good Can Work.” The trio then went into overdrive, bringing their tight, dynamic live shows across the world and quickly dropping sophomore album Beacon in 2012. Taking cues from indie-pop darlings like Phoenix and Foals, the band soon found their sweet spot, spiking playful melodies with punchy post-punk rhythms and sing-along choruses. In 2007, they rebranded as Two Door Cinema Club (a name inspired by the local Tudor Cinema) and decided to skip university to polish up their fidgety dance-punk demos. The trio had been honing that sound since they were teens, when singer/guitarist/programmer Alex Trimble, lead guitarist Sam Halliday, and bassist Kevin Baird formed the band Life Without Rory in Bangor, Northern Ireland.

Love it so relaxing and the song lyrics are inspirational! Come on, this song has the perfect mixture of chill and amazing guitars. It is so catchy and every layer is thought out which just makes it extra special!” Give this song a chance and listen to it to the end you’ll see why! It truly has a deeper meaning you must fathom yourself! This song is one of the best songs that TDCC has ever written. Makes you feel so good and happy for no reason, so you just smile and sing along” Takes me to a very magical place ? Personally, I also think ‘Handshake’ and ‘Standing On Ghosts’ deserve to be on this list too. And the rhythm towards to end… Oh, this song is heavenly. Truly one of a kind and every layer is so well thought out.
