Cosmic Egg is the second studio album by Australian rock band Wolfmother, released on 23 October 2009. It is the first album by the second lineup of the band,[3] featuring vocalist, songwriter and lead guitarist Andrew Stockdale, bassist and keyboardist Ian Peres, rhythm guitarist Aidan Nemeth and drummer Dave Atkins,[4] formed in 2009 after original members Chris Ross and Myles Heskett left in August 2008.[5][6] Upon its release, Cosmic Egg peaked at number three on the Australian ARIA Albums Chart, the same position as the band's first album.[7] The album was the only studio release by the band to feature Atkins, who left the band in April 2010 during the Cosmic Egg promotional tour cycle.[8]
The album was recorded between April and May 2009 at Sound City Studios[3] and Sunset Sound Studios[9] in Los Angeles, California. The title of the album comes from a position in yoga described by frontman Stockdale as "like the fetal pose".[3] The album's release was promoted throughout 2009 and 2010 by the New Moon Rising World Tour, beginning in September 2009 in Australia.[10][11][12] The first song released from the album was the promotional digital download single "Back Round" on 2 June 2009; "New Moon Rising" was the first full single release from Cosmic Egg, on 25 August 2009.
