Temples have announced an EP featuring unreleased tracks from the sessions for debut album ‘Sun Structures’

Temples have announced details of their upcoming ‘Other Structures’ EP.

Set for release on 4th October 2024 via Heavenly Recordings, the six-track EP features unreleased material and remixes from the sessions of their 2014 debut album ‘Sun Structures’.

James Bagshaw, Temples’ frontman and lyricist, says of the EP’s lead track: “‘Day Of Conquest’ was part of the Sun Structures album demos, it probably would have been on the album but we ran out of run time on the LP. I remember being fond of this song, and it was a pleasant surprise to go back and unearth the sonic layering. I love how the sections contrast in an interesting way, and the fact there isn’t really a chorus.”

The release follows a special double-vinyl edition of ‘Sun Structures’ that was released for Record Store Day in April. Originally released in spring 2014, ‘Sun Structures’ featured singles ‘Shelter Song’, ‘Colours To Life’, ‘Keep In The Dark’ and ‘Mesmerise’.
