Empire Of The Sun released a new single last month titled Alive. I had no idea about it until today so it managed to stay under my radar for quite a while! A second single called Discovery is coming up shortly followed by a new album early next month, Ice on the dune.
The new single's sound is a little more modern than the last album but is none the less lovely. Heavy, dancey drum beats, lofty, echoing, vocals and that wonderful just-so-slightly-pouty sounding voice in the recurring phrase "Loving every moment cause you make me feel so alive...alive." The whole song feels ecstatic and full of joie de vivre. A summer anthem, for sure!
As a side note, I friggin love the costumes these guys wear. That head piece is nuts!
Soundtrack to: Running hand in hand, laughing like children.
