Messrs Steele and Littlemore burst onto the scene with their most unlikely of collaborations back in 2008, flooring us all with their experimental, global-quality pop magnificence, delivering the smash single ‘Walking On A Dream’, ‘We Are The People’, ‘Standing On The Shore’ etc.
The album ‘Walking On A Dream’ was huge, selling more than a million copies globally and garnering many industry accolades including eight ARIA Awards.
News from EMI HQ today is that the band is back in June this year with their brand new album ‘Ice On The Dune’. And here’s how the new album has been introduced to a global audience…
“Once, the world was pure. It was the Emperor and the Prophet who kept it thus. Each day, they charted the sun’s course across the sky, guided rivers down from mountain peaks, brought rains to quench raging fires.
With the aid of their four priests, who possessed spirits of wild animals, they travelled the world tirelessly, maintaining nature’s delicate balance, allowing all things to grow and flourish — always with the aid of the sacred jewel held atop the Emperor’s crown…
But one night, as the Emperor slumbered, recovering from his labors, true darkness appeared. The King of Shadows, ever the bitter foe of the Empire, and all it had achieved, crept into their temple. Craving the Emperor’s power, he stole the jewel from his crown– and in an instant the world was changed.
Robbed of the bulk of his power, the Emperor and the Prophet watched helplessly as their temple was torn asunder, and their priests cast far out into the world.
But even in that moment, when all appeared lost, there was one thing that the King of Shadows’ black heart simply could not have imagined… The Emperor and the Prophet had never abandoned hope.”
Luke and Nick are teasing their global fandom with this brand new video, simply entitled ‘Discovery’.
Colour us excited.
