Mighty Horse Deliver Genre-Bending Epic With New Double Album ‘Road Movie Dream’

Melbourne’s boundary-pushing outfit Mighty Horse have officially released their ambitious and sonically rich double album, ‘Road Movie Dream’ — and it’s a wild, genre-hopping ride through the Australian musical landscape. Spanning 18 tracks and clocking in at just over 80 minutes, this expansive record captures the spirit of a band unafraid to throw the rulebook out the window.

From the gritty urgency of ‘33 Revolutions’ to the dreamy haze of ‘Crystal Green’ — which channels the golden days of Ratcat — Mighty Horse effortlessly shift between eras and genres. You’ll hear echoes of Midnight Oil in the politically tinged swagger of ‘Complicated’, but this isn’t just a nostalgia trip. There are moments, many of them, where Mighty Horse carve out a sound that’s wholly their own — dynamic, unpredictable and emotionally potent.

Recorded live in Northcote’s Soundpark Studios, and polished in their Castlemaine HQ, ‘Road Movie Dream’ sounds both raw and cinematic. The title track, a sprawling 9-minute closer, is a highlight — a slow-building, widescreen piece that feels like the end credits to a film you didn’t know you were watching.

Released on May 4, 2025, this double LP isn’t just a bold artistic statement — it’s a defiant middle finger to the age of short attention spans. Mighty Horse prove that when creativity flows, sometimes you let the river run.

‘Road Movie Dream’ is available now on double vinyl and digital services everywhere.
