Get your grooving psych-ears locked, Temples have delivered yet another sweet slice in the form of new track ‘Strange Or Be Forgotten’.
Taking the classic songwriting edge that has taken them around the world and twisting it into a shimmering package of instant-bliss, ‘Strange Or Be Forgotten’ is the latest blender to emerge from the band’s incoming second album ‘Volcano’ – set to erupt (see what we did there…) on March 3rd.
Talking about the track to Noisey, bassist Tom Warmsley delved into the track, detailing that “we’re continually inundated with pressure in modern life to have to make something of ourselves and leave behind a legacy in this world. ‘Strange Or Be Forgotten’ is our way of questioning the necessity of having to be all so individual and unique—when really it’s our true selves that should be celebrated.”
The Kettering-weavers will mark the release of ‘Volcano’ with a newly announced headline run around the UK at the end of March – kicking off in Newcastle on March 26th and hitting up venues all over the place before finishing up in Birmingham on April 2nd.
