Temperance announce new album ‘Diamanti’
TEMPERANCE have announced a new album!
Titled Diamanti, the upcoming album from the Italian power metal band is the follow-up to 2020’s Viridian and is scheduled to be released in November this year, via Napalm Records.
The upcoming album was mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen [VOLBEAT, EPICA, AMARANTHE], with the cover artwork once again created by Yann Souetre [AYREON].
Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist/guitarist Marco Pastorino says, “with Diamanti, we managed to combine our best qualities and selected the best TEMPERANCE songs so far. It’s not our heaviest album, it’s not our fastest work, but surely it’s our favourite one so far! We weren’t necessarily supposed to record a new album only one year after Viridian, but luckily we made it! In this album you will find our trademarks: the vocal harmonies, the catchy melodies, but also epic stuff, strong arrangements, and long tracks – I am very proud of Diamanti and I am convinced we have written a bombastic album!”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song to be lifted from the upcoming album; Pure Life Unfolds.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist/pianist Michele Guaitoli says, “this song is proof that when we work as a team, we are limitless. I wrote this track two years ago, and it was a long suite with over seven minutes of music. When Marco heard it, he saw a completely different potential in it and we started editing and working together. Basically, the intro and the chorus are the only elements that didn’t change if not for some little adjustments, the verses and the overall structure has been re-arranged during our songwriting sessions and the final result is just magic. This track leaves you breathless and makes your heart beating fast from the beginning to the end.”
