Johns, who has rarely spoken publicly since Silverchair went on an indefinite hiatus in 2011, says he wrote the song in collaboration with Joel Little, who has worked with Lorde.
‘‘It’s taken so long to release new music because when we decided to take a break from Silverchair I took time to step away from the spotlight and just craft a little bit,’’ Johns said on the Nine Network’s Today breakfast show.
‘‘The video is me on my own personal journey through a desert which is metaphor for loneliness and discovering a world of sexual being and a world of uninhibited love.’’
The Novocastrian said his art is his music and he hopes it has an impact with listeners.
‘‘I’m not a painter, I’m not much of a writer, I but I understand sound and I understand melody and its just my own way of putting my imprint into the world.’’
Aerial Love will be available on an EP on March 13.
