TEMPEL - Moon Lit Our Path (CD)

The Phoenix, Arizona-based act Tempel was originally formed as a full ensemble before pairing down in 2006 to it's two present members, guitarist/keyboardist Ryan Wenzel and drummer Rich Corle. The streamlined duo then began experimenting at Wenzel's self-run recording studio, Arrowhead Studio, where they fused together their distinctive sound - thunderous instrumental that mixes progressive, black death and post metal into one Mammoth sonic cocktail. Their self-released debut, "on the steps of the temple" caught the attention of Prosthetic Records, who re-released the stunning album in 2014 to significant acclaim from critics and fans alike. Tempel have spent the past two years pushing musical boundaries to create "The Moon Lit Our Path" which features five impassioned tracks that command the listener's full attention.
