Empire Of The Sun - Ice On The Dune album flac

Empire of the Sun's follow up to their breakthrough 2008 debut Walking on a Dream was written and recorded during an endless arena-date treadmill. Now legitimately famous, the Australian duo are both more impressive and less distinctive. Their first album did its job, and now they are legitimately famous: They've have been touring internationally more or less nonstop since its release. Party music that translates to outdoor festival audiences worldwide is a demanding beast. Ice On The Dune, their king follow up, was written and recorded while running this endless arena-date treadmill, and you can instantly hear that music's homemade quirks have burned off like cellulite.

And unfortunately, ‘Ice On The Dune’ is a four-to-the-floor electro-pop album that has literally nothing to do with the cheesy fable invented to go with it. After a mood-building cinematic splurge of an intro called ‘Lux’, EOTS’s attempt at a theme to The Mummy, it’s straight into 11 repetitive bursts of whoomp-laden chart pop pitched firmly between Calvin Harris and Wiley’s ‘Heatwave’, every track crying out to be used on a Coke advert. Despite the Day-Glo Ming The Merciless visuals, on radio Empire Of The Sun want to blend right in, spouting all the usual meaningless, anodyne pop chorus lines – there’s even Auto-Tune on ‘Celebrate’, for fuck’s sake. They build an expectation of fantasy weirdness, blazing originality and cosmic sonics, but give us an album so Fearne Cotton-friendly they might as well have called it ‘Shopping With Willoughby’. And there’s the crux.

Ice on the Dune – almost too perfect a title for an Aussie band with a glacial Euro aesthetic – is a seamless suite of elegiac synthpop, with fairydust-flecked melodies, a perpetually peaking bass end, chord changes that reach into your heart, and fantasising falsetto vocals.

When I was young I found Imagine what I saw Secret underground Changed the way I see Lost that child inside He ran away from me. I've been reaching all out darling And I can operate now Someone for my love To turn 'round and change. Oh let's go running away We can always be together Oh let's go running away We can last forever Oh let's go meeting again Just like the ice on the dune Oh let's go running away Go run away.

Try and listen to ‘Ice on the Dune’ without thinking of the following: sun; summer; eating ice cream in the sun; happy, brightly dressed crowds at sunny festivals. Good luck, because the ties between Empire Of The Sun’s music and the blazing ball referenced in their name are impossible to ignore. As with their 2008 debut, ‘Walking on a Dream’, the Australian duo’s second album sizzles with unashamedly glittery and radiant synth-pop and falsetto vocals, generously dripping in sugar and smiles, and ready to soundtrack a thousand happy-go-lucky summers
