Temples formed in 2012, so they are still quite a new band, they have released their 1st album in February his year - "Sun Structures" and gradually they seem to be getting musical recognition - supposedly Johnny Marr and Noel G are fans and unsurprisingly really when you listen to them - it's like stepping into a time machine and arriving at a summer festival in the 60s. Ahh bliss.
I'd listened to their album quite a bit over the summer but hadn't seen them live before so the Ritz being the great venue seemed to be a good choice. But, while watching them perform I did feel their music would be a bit better suited to a small stage at a festival in the height of summer with flowers in their hair (see, back to the great hair again), however, it was still a really enjoyable gig.
The gig did make me realise eve more though, that the band overall, without sounding too critical aren't particularly original, or bringing something new to music, nevetheless, they are bringing that nice feel of 60s vibes back into the modern day, so who am I to complain?
The songs with special strength are : 'Keep in the Dark' and 'Shelter song', if you haven't heard Temples before than begin with those.
Ones things for sure they are a crowd pleaser, easy listening and fun to watch.
Might even get my hair permed now.
