Of course, all real music lovers not Down Under acquainted to either something called the internet or something commonly referred to as import CDs have already welcomed this album with open arms. Aussies Luke Steele of The Sleepy Jackson and Nick Littlemore of PNAU and Teenager, formed Empire Of The Sun in 2008 and released the debut Walking On A Dream in Australia only and quickly became every blogger’s darling. The outstanding title track was a victory in both style and content and displayed the band’s experienced songcrafting skills while creating pop songs of magical adventures in polished futuristic Star Wars meets exotic steampunk Indiana Jones settings. A long number of countries are experiencing the release of this album right now and below is a complete release history taken from Wikipedia, so you’ll know when and where you will be able to catch this highly recommended universal pop dream. Empire Of The Sun are expanding their territory and I’m thrilled! :)
