Caligula

Caligula Return With First Full-Length Album in 25 Years Bloodlines

After a 25-year wait, ARIA-nominated electro-rock outfit Caligula return with their long-awaited new album Bloodlines, a powerful and deeply atmospheric record that reaffirms the band’s place as one of Australia’s most distinctive gothic-tinged rock acts.

Blending their signature goth groove, brooding electronics and driving rock energy, Bloodlines explores themes of love, loss, fear and redemption. The album captures the emotional depth and dark romanticism that defined Caligula’s rise in the 1990s while pushing their sound into bold new territory.

Fronted by Ash Rothschild, the band delivers a collection of songs that feel both deeply personal and universally resonant, an album shaped by time, reflection, and the unbreakable creative bond that has always driven the band forward.

To celebrate the release, Caligula will perform two exclusive album launch shows only, giving fans a rare chance to experience the new material live alongside classic tracks from the band’s celebrated catalogue.

BLOODLINES – Album Launch Shows

Saturday, 23rd May

Old Bar – Melbourne

Saturday, 6th June

Waywards – Sydney

Each night will feature special guest artists, making these performances a must-see event for fans of alternative and gothic-influenced rock.

With Bloodlines, Caligula return not simply as a nostalgic act, but as a band reborn — powerful, relevant and unapologetically themselves.
