Australian band Empire of the Sun return in fine form – as The Guardian described it “Eight years on from their last album, the Australian duo’s fabulist nostalgia-pop is a triumph of feeling over artifice”. In this album they revel in the simple melodic joy of their first two classics “Walking on a Dream” and “Ice on the Dune”, “resurrecting the technicolour quirkiness of their debut and the chilly intensity of Ice on the Dune“ in the words of AllMusic.
