Australian progressive rockers Anubis are a band who sit firmly within that region of emotive music which crosses the line between the plaintive sound of Pink Floyd and the bluster of cinematic indie. Now on their fourth album, The Second Hand, they return to the age old trope of the concept album with a narrative, which feeds into the at times explosive music.

Australian progressive rock band Anubis is excited to announce the upcoming release of its sixth studio album, "Homeless". "Homeless" is written from an individual's perception of the world as it exists in 2020: from the ever-increasing reliance on technology to the increase in inequality and poverty. From rampant populism to the crumbling environment in which we live, from the vacuous thoughts and prayers from the leaders elected to enact change in people's lives to the individual's never ending quest for enlightenment, empathy and heart. Eschewing the narrative approach of its predecessor, "The Second Hand", "Homeless" finds the band in new musical territory whilst taking cues from the group's emotive third album, "Hitchhiking To Byzantium".
Anubis is a Progressive Rock band from Sydney, Australia. The band formed around the nucleus of songwriters Robert James Moulding (Vocals) and David Eaton (Keyboards), and features Steven Eaton on drums, Douglas Skene (Hemina) and Dean Bennison on guitars, and Nick Antoinette on bass. This combo recorded the critically acclaimed debut studio LP, '230503' in 2009, which was produced by guitarist Dean Bennison. The album has since gained a modest yet keen following and positive reputation worldwide, ranking high on 2009's 'progarchives' chart; voted 'album of the week' during June 2010 by 'musicwaves' in France; and included in the top 10 releases for 2010 by a number of online and print progressive rock media - one memorably claiming that '"albums like this make you believe in the future of prog-rock"…
