HEAVY TEMPLE (USA) & HOWLING GIANT (USA)

Philadelphia’s Heavy Temple formed in 2012 during a brutal mid-Atlantic winter, and quickly released a pair of critically acclaimed EPs that presented a mature blend of fuzzy grooves, doom, and heavy psychedelia with occult motifs and a tongue-in-cheek sense of humor.

Since its inception, the band has made waves throughout the heavy rock underground, galvanizing their brain-melting attack over the course of tours with Corrosion of Conformity, Ruby the Hatchet, Ecstatic Vision, and Royal Thunder, and appearances at fests including Psycho Las Vegas, Desert Fest New York, The Obelisk All-Dayer, Muddy Roots and Decibel Metal and Beer.

Fusing their strongest lineup into place just ahead of the pandemic, Heavy Temple took advantage of the forced layoff from touring to finish and release their first official full-length, Lupi Amoris, which arrived in June 2021 on Magnetic Eye Records. In addition, they honed their cosmic heaviness and have been crafting yet another collection of blistering, riff-laden incantations.

Ready for a world that allows this well-oiled riff machine back onstage, the band proudly presents a heavy psychedelic expedition that seamlessly weaves from boogie van grooves to Candlemassian gravitas.
