Colourblind Returns with Explosive New Single “Jekyll & Hyde” — A Bold New Chapter Begins
After a decade-long silence, Maltese progressive rock pioneers Colourblind have returned with a powerful new single, “Jekyll & Hyde,” released today, May 24, 2025. The track marks a major milestone for the band — their first release since Timbru in 2015 — and signals the beginning of an exciting new era.
“Get ready... this is raw and real and it's coming your way... and it is just the beginning,” the band announced, igniting anticipation among fans both locally and internationally.
Formed in 1998 by brothers Alistair Galea (lead guitar) and Shaun Galea (drums), Colourblind quickly carved out a space in Malta’s music scene with their distinct progressive sound. Joined early on by Paul Cassar, Etienne, and Adriano, the band established a loyal following through their emotionally driven compositions and intricate arrangements.
The years following the pandemic brought about a transformative period for the band. Vocalist Elisa Ellul stepped in to front the group, bringing a new energy and creative direction. In 2023, Nenad Kopanja joined on bass and backing vocals, rounding out a dynamic lineup together with Claude Abela (rhythm guitar), who first joined the band in 1998 till 1999 and again in 2016 when Luciano Schembri (keyboards) joined as well.
“Jekyll & Hyde” showcases a mature and revitalized Colourblind — balancing intensity and melody, chaos and control. With Ellul’s hauntingly powerful vocals, the track explores the duality of human nature in a raw and evocative style. Fittingly, the artwork for the single was also created by Ellul, further reflecting the band's hands-on approach to their artistic vision.
This release is more than just a comeback — it’s a declaration. “Jekyll & Hyde” represents years of evolution, reinvention, and resilience.
Fans can experience the song now via Colourblind’s official YouTube channel.
