Hailing from the mountains of North Carolina, Temptation's Wings maybe new to The Sludgelord, however having formed in 2005,
they have been writing and releasing music for over 10 years now. With a few albums and EPs under their
belt, it wasn’t until the release of their 2012 EP “Legends of the Tusk”, that the band finally began to hit their
stride, touring relentlessly in support of the record and earning a slot
opening for Iced Earth at a home town
gig to their biggest crowd to date.
Fast forward to 2017 and with a new full length entitled “Skulthor Ebonblade” set for release on March 10th,
the record is the culmination of over 10 years graft, that has seen them refine
their song writing skills and grow into the thrashy doomed infused goliathon
they are today. Taking cues from bands
such as Grand Magus, “Skulthor Ebonblade” is the
complete package with powerful riffs, propulsive rhythms, and emotionally
penetrating vocals that will immediately imprint upon your memory. “Skulthor Ebonblade” will be released on CD and digital formats on March 10 and you can stream the track “I Destroyer” below. The CD version will include an acoustic bonus track called "Solitude." The album was mixed, mastered, and recorded by Andy Bishop at Giraffe Studios,
