Caligula’s Horse have announced their fifth studio album “Rise Radiant” for release on the May 22, 2020. Based in Brisbane, Australia, the album has been produced by the group’s Sam Vallen and mixed by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Devin Townsend Project, Leprous). The band have also launched the first single from the album, opening track “The Tempest.”
Lead guitarist Sam Vallen comments: “‘Rise Radiant’ is the album we’ve been working towards for almost a decade. It represents everything we love about Caligula’s Horse – the colour, the ferocity, the introspection, the extremes – all tied up together in a way we could never have managed until now. As a band, we’ve never felt tighter, more inspired, or more driven than in the creation of this record. We’re tremendously proud of ‘Rise Radiant’, and we can’t wait for you to hear it!”
“Rise Radiant” explores the themes of legacy and provides a rallying cry for survival. Comprised of 8 tracks, the release will be available as a limited CD Digipak, Gatefold 2LP + CD & as digital download. The formats also include 2 bonus tracks, covers of the Split Enz track “Message To My Girl” & Peter Gabriel’s “Don’t Give Up,” which also features a guest appearance by Lynsey Ward of Exploring Birdsong.
