In their latest album, Songs from Atlantis, Steve Kilbey & Gareth Koch re-imagine deities and figures from antiquity.  Their album creates an esoteric impression of an ancient mythical kingdom, when Poseidon ruled the undersea and the Augur interpreted the will of the gods.  The music on Songs from Atlantis is in turn mystical, powerful and reflective.  The textures range from glistening harmonics to diving liquid slides.  Some of the music is almost aqueous, with resonator guitars producing a type of whale song while lyres evoke an idea of Ancient Greece.   Atlantis, an island mentioned in Plato’s works, is described as an empire that ruled all parts of the world.  After falling out of favour with the deities the city is subsumed into the Atlantic Ocean.
