Music News - New Album for Temples On Mars
02 March 2018 - 0 Comments
Temples on Mars recently released the brand new video for So In Love With Your Own Drug. Tackling the very real issues of our reliance on modern technology and social media, the song catapults Temples on Mars into the forefront of the Progressive Rock universe.
Temples on Mars’ frontman James Donaldson states :
"We are extremely excited to be releasing the first Temples on Mars single and accompanying video. The song itself alludes to the status of modern society. People are just so absorbed in themselves, the media, getting likes and comments, that they are forgetting how to live, how to interact with each other, and forgetting the basics of what being human is all about. Like drugged up zombies sleep walking into extinction. You won't even notice."
The name Temples on Mars was inspired by advanced ancient hieroglyphs, which were supposedly created with the assistance of extraterrestrial beings, who helped to develop ancient Earth civilisations. These same beings are theoretically linked with the creation of structures and temples on the surface of Mars.
The band’s former projects from the outer edges of Planet Earth (New Zealand, South Africa, UK) have collated a formidable track record of achievements between them, having performed at the likes of Download Festival, HRH Ibiza, HRH Prog and Hammerfest, plus sharing the stage with Skindred, Ill Nino, Voyager, Devil Sold His Soul and more. Media such as Metal Hammer, Prog, the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show and more have supported the band members’ past endeavours and Temples on Mars hopes to continue making their mark with the aforementioned tastemakers of the rock scene.
"Agent are dead. Long live Temples on Mars." - Prog Magazine
"A progressive dance of irresistible hooks, grooving metalcore and soothing harmonies" - Metal Hammer
There is life on Mars. Temples on Mars will release a brand new album on April 6th 2018 via Primordial Records. Their self-titled debut was recorded by award winning producer Paul Matthews (I Am Giant) and mastered at Mix Berlin in Germany.
The band have just unleashed their other-worldly artwork for the album, plus track list and pre-order links.
James Donaldson, frontman and guitarist, says this about the artwork.
"We wanted to complement our new album with some visually stimulating, thought provoking artwork that represented the best version of Temples on Mars' music. We needed an artist who understood our vision and could deliver something unique to round out the whole package - enter Shaun-Dean Thomas of South East design studios, a long time friend of our bass player Daz Carikas. We gave Shaun the album and a the brief of the origins of the band name and he came up with the whole package - the band logo, the icon, the single artwork, and the album. Shaun has blown us out of the water on every level with his ability and professionalism. We are over the moon with what he has delivered and can't recommend him enough. He has brought Temples on Mars down to Earth."
