Stargazery - Carnival Puppeteers - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

HEAVY TEMPLE are back from extensively touring across the United States and for the first time also Europe. They are also back from the rehearsal room where the making of new songs became far more of a group effort than on the debut album. And finally back from Animal Farm studio where John Forrestal gave the new album InchGarden of HeathensInch a rich and warm organic sound that is also crisp and crystalline. Where the debut full-length InchLupi AmorisInch charged forward like a roaring mastodon, InchGarden of HeathensInch comes across more diverse and sophisticated without losing punch or heaviness. And while the powerful vocals of frontwoman High Priestess Nighthawk provide a strong gravitational pull, HEAVY TEMPLE always remain a riff-first kind of band. Even so, the heavy-touring Philadelphia, PA trio have expanded their range to encompass an even wider breadth of rock and metal road stops, from BARONESS to THE BEATLES and BLACK SABBATH to FU MANCHU - with many crossroads in between.

Import Hybrid-SACD pressing.

A masterpiece of blackish/death metal, coming from Greece!Debut album, but mature and high-class!
