Tommie Eriksson unveils plans for a Saturnalia Temple split, new speed/thrash project and more in this interview on Tempelores

Saturnalia Temple as of 2024: Pelle, Tommie, Gottfrid Photo by Nox Ithil.

Tommie Eriksson has been recently interviewed on Tempelores about Saturnalia Temple's latest album "Paradigm Call", and in this interesting conversation he has revelaed some intriguing news about some of his future activities.

He has mentioned that Saturnalia Temple will soon announce a split with a (still undisclosed) great band, which will be recorded with Pelle and Gottfrid Åhman (who weren't part of the recording of the album, written and recorded by Tommie alone, as he confirms in this interview).

Tommie has anyway reminded their listeners that this peculiar line up of Saturnalia Temple is such a special thing that they don't know how long it can continue and that they"take every gig and every recording as a thing in itself, and the future is only what feels right to the three of us." He also added that he "will keep the band going forever surely, and I hope the guys can join the ride for a very long time. But special things must be respected and cherished and one should never take anything for granted."

Saturnalia Temple: excerpts from the show at Celestial Darkness Festival

On March 2nd, 2024 Saturnalia Temple have appeared at Celestial Darkness Festival in London, to deliver their powerful psychedelic doom metal with the new live line-up which now includes Pelle & Gottfrid Åhman (of In Solitude, No Future, Invidious, PÅGÅ) who have joined Tommie Eriksson respectively on drums and on bass guitar.

Some clips from their live set have been kindly shared with us by Shayan (of Iblis Manifestations podcast - who also interviewed Gottfrid back in 2022).

You can watch these moments from the show here below - some parts are from songs of Saturnalia Temple's new album "Paradigm Call": "Revel in Dissidence", the title-track (on which we get to see some heavy hitting action!) and "Black Smoke".

Saturnalia Temple's "Paradigm Call" out now and streaming in full

Saturnalia Temple's fourth album "Paradigm Call" is out today on Listenable Records and it is now possible to stream the album in all its enthralling entirety!

Even after immersing in this new record only a couple of times, it is undeniable that Saturnalia Temple have crafted an impressive opus: the listener can immediately feel that, not only because carried away by the elements of atmospheric doom, psychedelic hard rock, black metal and dark ambient intertwining each other together seamlessly, but also because the sound itself so fluently reaches immediately well beyond the auditory system, and a gut feeling that something almost ungraspable, yet so effective, inhabits within the music, is present since the very first listen.
