"New Moon Rising" was the first single from Cosmic Egg, the second studio album by Australian hard rockers Wolfmother, arriving on 25 August 2009 and sharing its name with the tour the band had announced that July. Andrew Stockdale wrote it on his own and sings it, trading guitar with Aidan Nemeth, while Ian Peres doubles on bass and keyboards and Dave Atkins drums. It's hard rock with its hair flying.

Alan Moulder produced it and mixed it with Darren Lawson, and Joe Barresi engineered. The song first surfaced on the album's track list after a listening party in the US in late July, and ARIA's figures for 2009 had it at 49 among the year's best-selling singles by Australian acts at home.
