biography
Taking their name from the J.G. Ballard novel that became a 1987 Steven Spielberg film, Australia's larger-than-life electro-glam-pop duo Empire of the Sun feature the Sleepy Jackson's Luke Steele and Pnau's Nick Littlemore. Steele had previously worked with Pnau on "With You Forever," a track from the band's 2007 self-titled third album, and the pair enjoyed collaborating so much that they started their own project, drawing inspiration from the likes of Phoenix and Daft Punk. In fall 2008, Empire of the Sun released the debut album Walking on a Dream, which the musicians described as "a spiritual road movie." Featuring songs co-written by Pnau's other half, Peter Mayes, the album went platinum in Australia. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide

- Empire of the Sun have just released the ultimate summer soundtrack. Once their album gets increased recognition here in the US, I personally feel their popularity is going to skyrocket.
Going off the quality of first singles "Walking On A Dream" and "We Are The People", they've got potential to truly shatter indie / alternative charts. Think MGMT 2.0.
Only time will tell, however. We'll see how things play out! - 2 out of 2 people
