About this album
Aliens is one of Horslips’ most ambitious and adventurous albums, uniting Celtic folk sources with progressive rock drive. Released in 1977, it finds the Irish band stretching their sound into a conceptually charged, cosmopolitan world where traditional motifs meet electric momentum. Built on the group’s own songwriting and arrangements, the album reflects Horslips’ role as pioneers of Irish rock, helping prove that folk-rooted music could be expansive, modern and ambitious without losing its identity. For listeners drawn to inventive seventies rock with a strong sense of place, Aliens stands as a key Horslips statement.
