Midnight Oil's "Golden Age"

Having just completed an incredibly successful tour of North America (not to
mention being honoured by a recent tribute album) Midnight Oil are preparing
for the release of their first new studio album 'Capricornia.'

The band's new track, 'Golden Age' is the first song to be lifted from the
forthcoming album, which will be released on the 25th of February.

'Golden Age' will made its public debut on Triple M at 8am on Monday
morning, but on-line fans will be able to get a sneak preview of the track
with the launch of the new Midnight Oil website http://www.midnightoil.tv.
Roll along to be among the first to sample the latest offering from one of
this nation's most enduring acts.

'Golden Age' finds Midnight Oil as fresh and inspired as they've been in a
long time, reinvigorated by a good couple of years both as a band and as
individuals outside of the group.

Their recent tour of the States garnered the Oils a number of rave reviews,
impressing many US critics who may have thought the band's best years were
behind them. The guys have planned to return to the US later this year to
promote CAPRICORNIA following the excellent response of their last trip,
before heading to Europe for a round of shows there.
