Empire of the Sun's Live at Parklife Festival Sydney album is a testament to the band's ability to put on a stunning live performance. Recorded during their set at the 2013 Parklife Festival in Sydney, the album captures the band's electric energy and unique sound.

From the opening notes of "Lux," the album's first track, to the final moments of "Alive," the band's biggest hit, Live at Parklife Festival Sydney is a non-stop barrage of catchy hooks, soaring vocals, and infectious beats. The album features many of the band's most popular songs, including "Walking on a Dream," "We Are the People," and "Half Mast," all of which are given new life in their live performances.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Swordfish Hotkiss Night," which features an extended instrumental section that showcases the band's impressive musicianship. The track builds to a frenzied climax before transitioning seamlessly into "DNA," another fan favorite.

Throughout the album, Empire of the Sun's performance is backed by a dazzling light show that adds to the otherworldly atmosphere of their music. The band's costumes and stage presence also contribute to the spectacle, making for a truly unforgettable experience.
