Caligula presents: This Alchemy

Nice comeback to the sound of the 90's

Sydney electro rockers Caligula recently released the latest taste of their goth-flavoured groove with new single “This Alchemy” .

Emerging from a dark corner of early 90’s era Sydney, Caligula’s take on alt rock added more of an electronic sound to their walls of guitars. Their most excellent cover of Tears Of A Clown saw them nominated for a ‘Best New Talent’ ARIA Award, become a staple on Triple J and Triple M, and tour with the likes of Depeche Mode, Pop Will Eat Itself, Ned’s Atomic Dustbin and The Beastie Boys.

In 2018 Caligula kickstarted their engine again and knocked out a couple of tours with old mates Pop Will Eat Itself, The Mavis’s and Defryme. 2023 saw Caligula hit the road with DEF FX for a sold out national double headline tour.

Always a popular live act, the boys toured through 2024 with some huge festival appearances at the Spring Loaded Festival juggernaut as well as shows with The Machinations and Jesus Jones. The band have released 5 new singles forging forward with a new sheen to their unmistakable goth groove sound.

“Having first formed in the early ’90s, Caligula quickly found fame around their native Sydney, with a handful of EPs peppering their early years together, before finding mainstream radio play thanks to their cover of Smokey Robinson’s “Tears of A Clown”, which hit #25 on the ARIA charts.

In 1994, group unveiled their debut album Rubenesque, which not only reached #13 on the charts, but also saw their track “Before” beat out the likes of The Lemonheads and Alice in Chains in the inaugural Hottest 100 countdown.

In 2018, Caligula reformed to support grebo icons Pop Will Eat Itself on their Australian tour, and later joined the Spring Loaded festival lineup in 2021.”
