Temperance announce new album ‘Arcani’

TEMPERANCE have announced a brand new album!

Titled Arcani, the upcoming release from the Italian symphonic power metal band is set for release on October 16th, 2026 via Napalm Records. The band’s seventh studio album follows 2023’s Hermitage – Daruma’s Eyes Pt 2  and is structured around the Tarot’s Major Arcana, with each track inspired by a different card from the deck. Continuing to build upon their signature blend of symphonic grandeur, melodic hooks and multi-vocalist interplay, the record is described as the band’s most personal work to date.

Speaking about the album, guitarist and vocalist Marco Pastorino shares, “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.”

Alongside the announcement, the band have released the first single, The Devil: Sin, Sin, Sin. Speaking about the track, Pastorino says, “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?”
