Where the Angels Fall is the ninth studio album by Australian band the Cat Empire, released on 25 August 2023 through Two Shoes Records. It was co-produced by Felix Riebl, Ollie McGill, Ross Irwin, and Andy Baldwin, who had previously worked on their self-titled debut in 2003. Recording took place from October to November 2022 at the Merri-bek City Band Room, a community music space in Brunswick, Victoria. It is the first album released by the band following the departure of original members Ryan Monro, Harry James Angus, Will Hull-Brown and Jamshid Khadiwala, and the first with new members Grace Barbé, Daniel Farrugia, Neda Rahmani and Lazaro Numa.[1]

Musically, Where the Angels Fall contains elements of Latin music and Afro-Cuban jazz, as well as other genres. The album peaked at No. 5 on the ARIA Australian Artist Albums Chart, and produced four singles; "Thunder Rumbles", "Rock 'n' Roll", "Money Coming My Way" and "Owl". To promote the album, the band made several television appearances and a tour of Australia and North America. It was distributed digitally by Ditto Music, and on vinyl by Diggers Factory.[2] Where the Angels Fall was released four and a half years after their previous album, Stolen Diamonds (2019).
