Temples - Shelter Song

'Shelter Song' is the debut single from Temples, released by Heavenly Recordings on Monday 12th November 2012.

Backed with 'Prisms', both tracks were recorded in early September and produced by Temples in Pyramid Studios, their home studio in Kettering.

The limited 7" pressings were an instant sell-out but you can order the single digitally at the following link:

UPCOMING SHOWS:

Temples are: James Bagshaw (vocals & guitar), Thomas Warmsley (bass & backing vocals), Sam Toms (drums) & Adam Smith (keys).

so psychedelic, getting amazing 60's vibes

I just saw these guys on "Jimmy Fallon" and I was mesmerized for 3 minutes. I think I just found a new band to obsess over. Really great song.

[nostartia]

That chorus... I could listen  to it looping forever.

I wonder how many baby boomers hear this on the radio and one starts saying "Hey! Do you remember that one?" And then they try to figure out what band from their childhood sang it until they drive themselves crazy?

I'm an old geezer born in the 50's and there isn't much in the way of new music that appeals. I know that this isn't 'new' but the band is to me. Caught them playing out the credits of the film The Gift with the track Keep In The Dark and I was immediately hooked. Straight away I bought the album Sun Structures and I am not disappointed.

I absolutely love this track. Great sounds.

This needs to get 1 million views. I don't care if people will complain that it's mainstream because of that, this is perfect.

I love to see young people really *get* the vibe of older music and make it even cooler - nice job guys 👍

The Shelter Song could easily be a lost tape from 1971 with its chiming 12-string guitar line and fuzzed out vocals, but when it kicks in with the chorus it’s like the onset of a dream. It’s a particularly pertinent reminder that retro doesn’t have to mean looking backwards.

I CANNOT STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG. This is a good sign.

[kaazoom]

Great song. Sounds like something from the late 1960's

I Still Believe in Music...Thanks Temples!

Everything new is "old" again. I love this! Leave it to the Brits where innovation begins but never ends! 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

The Beatles were amazing, no one can deny that. Being such a revolutionary band they inspired generations of artists - it's natural that we hear a little bit of the Beatles in music today. In fact I think it's great that The Beatles live on through the impact they've had on so many artists.

Still listening to this song in 2022, why can't there be more such masterpieces😭

Just saw these guys on Ellen and liked them enough to search them out! Retro-60s music and these guys do it really well!! Love the song!!

[dankpatrol]

hey guys there are 7 billion people on the planet, soooo many bands sound similar. tame impala aren't the only band making psych rock/pop today, the beatles weren't the only ones doing this shit in the 60s either. once you know enough music, everything sounds like everything else, but that doesn't diminish its merit. it just means a lot of fucking people make music. really nice song.

[skylinebeauty]

This music has a 60s sound. It's wonderful!

[mariejimpowerful]

Since no genre or Rock is created, old sounds are back! Great song!

First saw them on Jimmy Fallon and loved this song immediately. Takes me back to the good music in 1967 or so during the psychedelic era . To the good music then, not the drugs, which I stayed away from . Good to see music like this making a comeback .
