You Are Going To Love This Band
I received an email from somewhere a little while ago urging me to check out a band called Empire of the Sun, because "you are going to love this band". Yeah, right, I thought.
I guess someone knows me pretty well, because the first track I previewed, "Walking On A Dream" is awesome. Aside from the excellent Star Wars inspired artwork, the sound is very reminiscent of what I imagine a collaboration between Prince and Fischerspooner might be like. In other words, bloody marvelous. The video, set in Shanghai, is cool as well.

By the way, hope you like the new look. There's going to be some changes around here!

I *love* the new look and yes, I love the band, too. I have to admit, though, I saw "Empire of the Sun" and immediately thought "Bill Nelson."
All the best,
