Illuminatus is a truly continental band, with members hailing from Spain, Germany, Italy and England. Dealing in expansive soundscapes, razor sharp dynamics and no-nonsense melodic song-writing, the band is blissfully ignorant of what’s hot and what’s not in the music world which is very refreshing!

Every song on ‘The Rising Tide EP’ carries an air of mystery about it; with instrumentals a-plenty along with powerful mind-blowing vocals of the screaming and singing varieties, Illuminatus is not a band to take lightly. Bonus track ‘Wargasm’ in particular is outstanding - this is an atmospheric acoustic number with intriguing lyrics that will have you mesmerised from start to finish.

Are you looking for something new to add to your CD collection? Something that’s unlike anything you will have ever heard before? Something that’s powerful, thought-provoking and very, very special? Then this is the band for you... what better way to introduce yourself to their magic than with ‘The Rising Tide’ EP..! This is definitely not one to be missed.

Illuminatus is vocalist and guitarist Julio Taylor, drummer Felix Rullhusen, guitarist Jonathan Martin and bassist Leo Giovazzini.
