About Me

With an eccentric take on modern rock music and a progressively epic sound, an Essex based band – Caligula, have began infiltrating the local scene through hard work, patience and a lot of beer. The band has 5 members, Alex – guitar, James - guitar, Craig – drums, Jess - keyboard and Tom - bass (The line-up currently has no vocalist.).Together they have found themselves writing and performing music that is somewhere between Pink Floyd and Isis. Each member always strives to bring something to the table that not only benefits the sound of Caligula but also pleasantly surprises each member of the band. Caligula are a band that, for the past hibernating months, have written for themselves, now they invite you to join in and hope you enjoy what you hear!

Sounds Like: REVIEW "Its good to see an instrumental band for once, and there's more coming into the limelight like Pelican and Red Sparrowes. This band, though, are looking for a singer, but they do great as they are, as this is slightly technical metal that's progressive but no songs outstay their welcome and a lot is crammed in. There's plenty of headbanging, jumping around and fun loving for a band that sound like Tool and Pink Floyd, but quite often they are fast, riffy and loud, and crisp and tight, its surprisingly accessible as its fun and rocks hard but has brains. Melodic, heavy, sweeping, groovy, they tick all the right boxes so I say they stay as they are. But add a dimension given by a vocalist? That'd be interesting..." Tech metal - 21/11/06
