Heavy Temple Announce July Tour With The Obsessed
Before they embark on this tour supporting the recently-unveiled four-piece incarnation of The Obsessed, Philadelphia troublemaker trio Heavy Temple will play at the Maryland Doom Fest at the end of this month, having already completed a stopover in Pittsburgh for Descendants of Crom IV this past weekend. Not too shabby as they continue to support their debut album, 2021’s Lupi Amoris (review here), which turns one in about a week.
They’re usually to be found kicking around Muddy Roots Music Festival in September, but I can’t seem to find their name on the bill this time. Maybe they were just going to go hang out or some such, I don’t know but I think they’re pretty tight with the fest, so it’d make a kind of sense. In any case, my hope is that this tour leads to more getting out. Heavy Temple are coming on due for a trip abroad, hitting European festivals and club shows as well, and the more they do domestically, the likelier they are to get that kind of attention.
So I suppose the depth of my professional insight here is it’s a good thing that the band looking to promote their album is going on tour to promote their album. Stay tuned to The Obelisk for more cutting edge expertise on the secret workings of the heavy underground.
