Wormholedeath is thrilled to announce the signing of Italian heavy metal juggernaut Thunder Rising for the CD release of their highly anticipated new album, “Horizon Line”. The digital edition of the album will be distributed by Mediaset RTI, bringing the band’s explosive sound to streaming platforms worldwide.
Fusing classic hard rock roots with cutting-edge production, “Horizon Line” is a masterclass in modern vintage. Thunder Rising’s self-coined style—“Real Vintage”—melds raw analog soul with a contemporary sonic edge. Think Deep Purple and Rainbow riffage, the melodic finesse of Journey and Boston, and the unmistakable warmth of Hammond organs, Fender guitars, and Marshall amps, all dialed in with 21st-century precision.
The album is more than a tribute to the golden era of rock—it’s an emotional and musical road trip. With every track, Thunder Rising invites listeners on a ride across time and memory, blending seasoned musicianship with a visceral, lived-in energy.

Formed in 2012 by longtime collaborators Frank Caruso (Arachnes, Firehouse) and Corrado “Nail” Ciceri (Wine Spirit), Thunder Rising is a supergroup of elite musicians. Their chemistry is built on decades of experience and shared passion, creating music that’s as authentic as it is electrifying.
“Horizon Line isn’t just a record—it’s a journey into sound, into the past and the future of rock. It’s the roar of a vintage motorcycle rolling into tomorrow,” shares the band.
Joining Caruso and Ciceri are powerhouse vocalist Alessio Spini, low-end wizard Gabriele Baroni, and keyboardist/composer Enzo Caruso. Together, they craft an album that pulses with life, emotion, and hard rock grit.
