Their reputation has grown as they have put on a series of genuinely thrilling live shows across the country. Their rapid rise has been picked up on by the MBBTYB blog and a host of other sites and fanzines and has led to them being asked to support such luminaries as: The Fall, Dutch Uncles, Wire, Dinosaur Pile-up, The Duke Spirit, Band of Skulls, Funeral Suits, John Cooper Clarke and more.
Spending the majority of the summer under the radar, recording their debut single, bringing in a new guitarist and writing new material for their imminent debut album, it has seen The Temps take their sound further – mixing dark riffs, cavernous drum and bass and cynical, sharp lyrics with melodic hooks.
Hard to pigeon-hole and bordering on impossible to ignore, The Temps are rapidly becoming a band not to be missed.
‘This young outfit, if they stay on the right track, have the potential to become huge. Easily the most exciting live band I’ve happened come across in a long while’ – Kevin McManus – Artrocker.
