Volcano
Limited indies-only LP is neon orange vinyl
The second studio album by English psychedelic rock band, Temples. Following on from their debut album, Sun Structures, it sounds like the band has been pushing themselves sonically from the extremely catchy lead single, Certainty.
It doesn’t take too long with Volcano to realise that, while all the things that made the band special the first time around remain intact, a noticeable evolution has taken place. It’s there from the outset: the beefed-up beats of Certainty reveal an expanded sonic firmament, one in which bright synth hooks and insistent choruses circle around each other over chord sequences that strike just the right balance between nice and queasy. “If there’s a sense of scale,” says lead singer James Bagshaw, “It was really just a result of implementing a load of things that we didn’t know about the first time around.” Co-founding member and bassist Thomas Walmsley describes a record in which “we discovered a lot as we went along, and the excitement at having done so radiates

at The Fighting Cocks, 7:00pm (18+)
Admission will be via e-ticket. Your e-ticket will be delivered to your email address in time for the show (typically the day before the event).To celebrate the release of the new album, Temples visits Kingston to play a remix performance at The Fighting Cocks."This will not be an acoustic performance, it will also not be a full band performance. It'll be a mix of like... tracks, live singing, and maybe some instrumentation."Temples’ name has become synonymous with a band with an adventurous spirit; constantly exploring new ideas.On their fifth album, BLISS, they shake up the perception of the Kettering-formed four-piece with a record that ventures into electronic territory while staying true to their core DNA. Euphoric and melancholic melodies of late ‘90s dance music blend with psych-tinged riffs and loops to create something fresh.Though the band missed the late ‘90s rave culture firsthand, Bliss channels that era’s bittersweet euphoria, drawing inspiration from Faithless, Underworld, Prodigy, Air, Röyksopp, Moby, Massive Attack, Orbital, Portishead, and more. Psych and dance share a natural lineage, with repetition, loops, and trance-like states forming the album’s foundation.- Times TBC but we expect doors at 7:00pm with Temples on stage at 8:00pmThe Fighting Cocks is an 18+ venue. Please bring photo ID.The Fighting Cocks is at 56 Old London Road, Kingston, KT2 6QA

Tuesday 18th April
at The Disco Room, Pryzm, 7:00pm (14+)
Admission will be via e-ticket. Your e-ticket will be delivered to your email address in time for the show (typically the day before the event).To celebrate the release of their new album titled 'Exotico' , Temples return to Kingston to play in The Disco Room at PryzmProduced by Sean Ono Lennon, Temples' fourth full-length album takes place in a mystical setting, an impossibly utopic island dreamed up by singer/guitarist James Bagshaw, bassist Tom Walmsley, keyboardist/guitarist Adam Smith, and drummer Rens Ottink. With its resplendent collage of psychedelia and krautrock and time-bending dream-pop, Exotico brings that world to life in crystalline detail, all while exploring an entire spectrum of existential themes: impermanence, mortality, our connection with nature and the wild immensity of the mind. Equal parts cerebral and celestial, the result is a truly immersive body of work, fully affirming Kettering-bred Temples as one of today's most forward-thinking and endlessly inventive rock bands.-Times TBC but we expect doors at 7pm with Temples on stage at 8pm.-Pryzm is 14+ for this show. No under 8s, sorry. 8 to 13 year olds must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult (18+). Those aged 14+ can attend unaccompanied.
