Heavy Temple Touring to Muddy Roots Music Festival

These dates? Old news. I’ve been should-I-or-shouldn’t-I-post-them for the last week, looking at rising case numbers every day particularly in the Southeast and in the Midwest where ‘owning the libs’ is apparently worth potentially setting your lungs on fire. Enjoy that. Every time I post tour dates at this point I feel compelled to offer some sort of Covid disclaimer. “Hey this shit might not happen.” “Please check with your local service provider to confirm participation.”

Well, fine. If that’s what life has to be from here on out, okay. Heavy Temple currently hold place as my top debut of 2021 with June’s Lupi Amoris (review here) — don’t tell them I said so — so the way I’ve ultimately come down on the issue of whether or not to post the following tour dates is this: If it’s an excuse to tag the band in another social media blech, a chance to put up the Bandcamp streamer again and maybe catch an ear that hasn’t yet heard the album, then it’s worth it. I wasn’t gonna see these shows anyway. But maybe you hear the record and you live somewhere they’re hitting this time around. That’d be neat. Wear a mask. Get your shot. All that shit.

And listen to the record either way.

HEAVY TEMPLE announce US tour dates 2021

Pennsylvania’s psychedelic doomsters HEAVY TEMPLE have announced the first 2021 US tour dates in support of their acclaimed debut album “Lupi Amoris”. Please see below for a complete list of shows.

HEAVY TEMPLE comment: “We were fortunate enough to be able to put out an album during a time of much uncertainty, especially regarding live shows, so needless to say we’re excited to get back in the van”, writes frontwoman High Priestess Nighthawk. “Music, especially for us metalheads, is such a huge part of our lives. The last year and a half has been rough, to say the least, without any shows. We’ve been practicing the songs from ‘Lupi Amoris’ this whole time, and we’re ready for people to hear them the way we always intended, live and in person, even if we all have to take a few extra precautions to keep ourselves and our fans safe when we get there.”

“Lupi Amoris” was released on Friday June 18, 2021. Cover art, tracklist, and further details of “Lupi Amoris” may be viewed below.

    Heh, I thought ‘owning the libs’ described winning an argument about vinyl with a long-time forum poster…
