Temptress "See" LP

"Bombastic yet delicate, crushing yet ethereal, driving yet dark, Temptress are a jigsaw of sonic touchstones with no audible seams. Fusing drone, doom, post-rock, grunge and hardcore, the trio produce a molten blend that flows and obliterates like a liquid metal assassin.

With 200+ shows in their relatively short tenure, Temptress’ endless ideas and nuances slip perfectly into place thanks to its members' vast live experience, and their new album hear churns with searing hooks and dissonant grooves in an irresistible confluence.

Fans of Heavy Temple, The Well, Sasquatch and Hippie Death Cult, prepare to be lured by what Temptress has in store with See."

The debut album for Texas three-piece Temptress, garnering attention with some live show action with artists like Black Tusk, Royal Thunder, and Heavy Temple to name a few. This power trio lineup combines elements of doom, sludge, and stoner styles over the course of these six tracks – providing not only a great mix of diversity as far as sound, but also exploring compact as well as epic arrangements.

Groove/hook combinations serve as the foundation that allows guitarist Kelsey Wilson’s voice to slither in, around, and over the wall of crunch or fuzzy tones – given a boost with background harmonies from bassist Christian Wright and drummer Andi Cuba. 

The colorful cover art beyond the seasoned production values Wo Fat guitarist Kent Stump pushes See into solid ground for Temptress as their first full-length. You can feel the smokey vibes, as these musicians lock onto slow riffs that build into adequate payoffs – all that anyone could ever desire as a band building an underground following.
