Empire of the Sun are one of the most eccentric pop acts to come along in years. Their costume theatrics are reminiscent of Ziggy Stardust era David Bowie and most sci-fi movies. With no relation to the 80's movie of the same title, their music is dreamy psychedelic dance pop, that brings near constant comparisons to MGMT. The debut album from this pair of Aussies, Walking on a Dream, drops in US Markets today and has already gone platinum in their home country.
