Temperance – Arcani
Italian symphonic power metallers TEMPERANCE reshuffle the pack with their seventh album, Arcani, coming October 16 via Napalm Records.
Structured around the divinatory practice of Tarot, each of the new songs follows a different card of the Major Arcana deck. Pouring their passion into 13 spellbinding songs with even catchier symphonic melodies than before, TEMPERANCE’s bright future takes shape on Arcani.
Along with the announcement, TEMPERANCE release the first single from the upcoming album. “The Devil: Sin, Sin, Sin” showcases dramatic instrumentation.
Focusing on the sinister Devil card, the fifteenth trump of the Major Arcana, it features a dark undertone, in which the catchy chorus and the full vocal power of the melodic metal masters’ multiple singers truly shine.
Marco Pastorino about “The Devil: Sin, Sin, Sin”:
“We’ve decided to begin our journey into the world of Arcani with a brand-new metal anthem for our upcoming setlists. ‘Sin, Sin, Sin’ embodies The Devil card, opening the gates to the world of Tarot within the context of TEMPERANCE. Are you ready to fall into sin?”
Though not a direct concept album, TEMPERANCE position themselves as masters of narrative with their Tarot-themed album, Arcani. Their symphonic grandeur rising to new heights on their memorable seventh album, the Italian five-piece knows how to make their trademark alternating vocalists stand out. With the most personal lyrics of their career, the lines recorded in group sessions binding the band together even more, TEMPERANCE present a strong melodic piece of work, filled with power, passion, and perspective.
Marco Pastorino about Arcani:
“We are finally here to announce our new album Arcani! 13 incredible new songs that we have worked tirelessly on over the past year, and we are confident they will become an essential part of our live show. Epic symphonic arrangements, harmonies woven through our three distinctive voices, huge metal guitar solos, and a fantastic production! After our adventures around the globe supporting the magical world of Hermitage, we have returned with something magical once again. Welcome to the world of Arcani.”
