Album Notes

Black Temple

The first Kung-Fu Metal band in the universe, Black Temple, is more like a solo project than a band, formed by Finnish / Thai composer, lyricist, singer and guitarist Tang.

The band started in the year 2005 with many line-up changes. In the lucky year 2008 they found Joel Attila as a producer introduced by the legendary German promotor Silke “Mutti” Yli-Sirniö (HIM, Nightwish, Lordi, Children Of Bodom etc.) and recorded their first single “Party Material” at Helsinki Underground Studios.

The line-up for this single is:
Tang: Vocals&Guitars
Vesa Mattila: Bass
Leonard: drums
Backing Vocals: Alexi Parviainen

In August this year when the album recording begins the new line up will be:
Tang: Vocal & lead guitar
Vesa Wahlroos (Ajattara): Rhythm guitar
Janne Parviainen (Ensiferum, Sinergy, Waltari, Notkea Rotta): Drums
Joel Attila (Valvet & Lowe Motor Corporation): Bass
Alexi Parviainen( Also done the backing vocal for Finnish Idol \"Ari Koivunen\" : Backing Vocals

Sounds like:
Kung-Fu Metal!
It’s a combination of various music styles: Evil 80’s disco-pop-rock-heavy-black-metal. Lyrics are about realities in life, facts of making mistakes and wanting to make it up, addiction in something and being in icy painful situations. Poems full of sarcasm, with definitely more than one meaning.
