CALIGULA’S HORSE // Release Their First Two Albums On Vinyl


Australia’s foremost authority on progressive rock, Caligula’s Horse, recently announced a European tour for October–November 2018.

To coincide with this, InsideOutMusic will issue the band’s first two albums, Moments from Ephemeral City and The Tide, the Thief & River’s End, on vinyl for the very first time on September 21 2018.

MORE: HALLOWEEN HYSTERIA 2018: A Celebration Of All Things Loud // DEAD OF WINTER 2018: A Real Live Dead One // KICK OUT THE JAMS: POLARIS // Hailing Jams With Jamie Hails REVIEWS: IMMORTAL: Northern Chaos Gods // PAGAN: Black Wash

Both will come as gatefold 180g black 2LP including the album on CD.

Vocalist Jim Grey comments: “People have been asking after vinyl versions of our first two albums for years now, so we’re excited that it’s finally happening right in time for our headline tour of Europe. It’ll be a little blast from the past for us personally – can’t wait to crack open one of these babies!”

Joining them on the EU tour will be fellow countrymen & progressive metal powerhouse Circles on their momentous return to Europe as main support, and instrumental guitar prodigy I Built The Sky (for their first European appearances).

The run is their most expansive and ambitious yet with 27 dates across October and November will see Caligula’s Horse make appearances at four festivals including
Euroblast, ProgPower, Very Prog Festival, Damnation Festival and AMFest.


Before Caligula’s Horse jet off to Europe they will play three shows on Australia’s east coast in August. These will be the LAST CHANCE fans will get to see the band in 2018.
The band will be playing their latest album, 2017’s Top 50 Aria Charting In Contact IN FULL! In addition to experiencing this fantastic album from start to finish, Caligula’s Horse will also be playing a selection of fan requests!
Joining the band as special guest are two acts who are no strangers to Caligula’s Horse fans.
James Norbert Ivanyi: One of the most original, commanding and versatile young guitarists on the scene today. James’ unique style of technical modern metal fused with the classic sounds of 1960’s and 1970’s progressive rock music have seen his fan base transcend generations and genres. His recent appearance at this year’s Progfest won him unanimous praise and he has become one of the most in demand online guitar teachers in the country!
Featuring former Caligula’s Horse guitarist, Zac Greensill, Opus Of A Machine are pushing the creative boundaries of alternative, progressive rock by combining the experimental nature of the genre’s foundation with an electro, pop edge. Technical wizardry meets emotional introspection. Pumping synths and skycraping melodies pinned down by a rock solid groove, this band was made to be seen live!
Playing smaller, more intimate venues, these shows are on track to SELL OUT!
Get in quick and secure your tickets now or you’ll be sure to miss one of the most potent progressive music shows of the year!
