Available with Vinyl records London. Pink Vinyl Vinyl Records Double Vinyl Temples Produced by Sean Ono Lennon, Temples’ fourth full length album takes place in a mystical setting, an impossibly utopic island dreamed up by singer guitarist James Bagshaw, bassist Tom Walmsley, keyboardist guitarist Adam Smith, and drummer Rens Ottink.With its resplendent collage of psychedelia and Krautrock and timebending dream pop, ‘Exotico’ brings that world to life in crystalline detail, all while exploring an entire spectrum of existential themes impermanence, mortality, our connection with nature and the wild immensity of the mind. Equal parts cerebral and celestial, the result is a truly immersive body of work, fully affirming Ketteringbred Temples as one of today’s most forwardthinking and endlessly inventive rock bands.Mixed by Dave Fridmann Beach House, Spoon, The Flaming Lips and mainly recorded at Lennon’s studio in upstate New York, ‘Exotico’ continues the collaboration begun on Temples’ Lennonproduced 2020 single ‘Paraphernalia’.Although Temples created portions of ‘Exotico’ at their home studio back in England, their 1-2 days of sessions at Lennon’s studio marked a significant departure from the selfcontained approach they’d adhered to since their debut album ‘Sun Structures’ a 2014 release The Quietus likened to a series of “woozy daydreams that will embed themselves further in with each listen”.Available to independent retailers on pink opaque double vinyl in 300gsm gatefold sleeve with matt machine varnish.
