Classic Rock band Magnum will be releasing their new album Here Comes The Rain, via Steamhammer/SPV on January 12, 2024 on CD + DVD, double vinyl LP, as a box set, and also for digital download. The band surrounding frontman Bob Catley and guitarist/songwriter Tony Clarkin are also set to release two lead singles on November 22, 2023 (“Blue Tango”) and January 3, 2024 (“The Seventh Darkness”) and a tour has been scheduled to kick off in early April 2024.
The album‘s artwork has again been designed by the great Rodney Matthews, who has already created a number of Magnum sleeves to support the band‘s music.
Tony Clarkin comments:
The back of the cover features a kind of avian battalion in attack mode, which I think is a great allegory!
Here Comes The Rain sees the Magnum line-up consisting of Catley, Clarkin, keyboardist Rick Benton, bassist Dennis Ward, and drummer Lee Morris. They also have big tour plans coming up for 2024.
