Caligula's Horse - A Gift to Afterthought

     Tonight's post is going to be what you always hope fast food will be: delivered to you as quickly as possible but still nice and tasty.

     I've written about Australian prog masters Caligula's Horse at least once before, featuring a song from the band's 2013 album The Tide, The Thief & River's End. There doesn't seem to be a new C-Horse record imminently on the horizon just yet, but the band has recently put out a video for another song from The Tide to keep us going until news of new material fills the progless hole in our collective soul.

     "A Gift to Afterthought" opens The Tide, The Thief & River's End with a bang, its crunchy riffs, big melodies, and catchy grooves setting the tone for the rest of the record. If, as looks to be the case based on the band's Facebook, there are at least some kind of recording plans for 2015, Caligula's Horse will definitely be an act to keep an eye on.
