Prog-metal supergroup Temic plays The Welly Club in Hull, with support from Born Again Concerts.
Temic play The Welly Club on Friday 30 October, with support from Born Again Concerts. It's a prog-metal supergroup that's been together since 2017, when Diego Tejeida and Eric Gillette first put it together. They describe their sound as a mix of heavy riffs, pop hooks and high-energy electronic music, so it's a fair bit more melodic than the name might suggest.
Their debut album, Terror Management Theory, came out in 2023 and did some decent numbers: it topped the charts in the Netherlands, hit number 15 on the iTunes Worldwide Metal chart, and was named one of the year's best albums by The Prog Report and The Progressive Subway. They've since followed it up with Ceiba, so there's a fair bit of material to draw from for a live set.
What makes them a supergroup is the line-up. The members come from a long list of prog and metal bands, including Devin Townsend, Mike Portnoy's Shattered Fortress, Neal Morse Band, Haken, Shining, Maraton, Big City and Evergrey. If any of those names ring a bell, you've got a good idea of the kind of musicianship that goes into this.
