The USA-based gothic rock outfit Temple Of Love has unveiled its second single, "Last Call", inspired by their late friend who succumbed to cancer in 2019.
After the band's vocalist Suzy Bravo found out her friend and former Suzy Bravo & The Soul Revue bandmate Tom Dyer was losing his battle with cancer, she and members of all of his bands got together to played their hearts out at one last show in a crowded room of people dancing, crying, laughing, shouting, applauding, and reminiscing.
Bravo comments: "'Last Call' is all about that night. It's a song about dancing, singing, performing, and celebrating our love for music one last time. The last party, the last shot, the last everything...and leaving this existential plane on our own terms while celebrating every damn minute of it as much as we can".
The band will donate all proceeds from the song to the High Voltage Music Program, an afterschool on-campus music program for 7 to 12-year-old kids in underserved communities in San Antonio.
Formed in Austin in 2018, Temple Of Love was formed as a recording project of husband-and-wife duo Steve Colca (Destroyer Of Light) and Suzy Bravo (Witchcryer) before it took off with a life of its own after a 2019 demo garnered attention amongst the Central Texas scene.
While writing and recording got delayed due to the pandemic and a few line-up changes, Temple Of Love is finally in the studio crafting its seven-track debut album with Roky Moon (Gwar, The Sword) at King Electric Studios in Austin, set for release later this year. Link
