Temperance releases new single ‘The Fool’ ahead of Arcani album

The symphonic metal band Temperance has released the music video for ‘The Fool’, the final single preceding their eighth studio album, Arcani. Released via Napalm Records, the album features thirteen songs inspired by the Major Arcana of the Tarot, serving as a thematic thread to explore various emotions and personal experiences.

The track ‘The Fool’ was composed by Marco Pastorino based on lyrics by Kristin Starkey. The song features vocal harmonies from Starkey, Michele Guaitoli, and Pastorino, blending epic choruses with neoclassical acoustic passages. To support the new release, the band will join Kamelot and Exit Eden on the Dark Asylum World Tour across Europe, including dates in Spain, the UK, Switzerland, France, and Croatia.

Separately, former Delain vocalist Charlotte Wessels has announced a new conceptual album scheduled for release on February 5, 2027, through Napalm Records. The fifteen-track project will explore human responses to climate change, social injustice, and future uncertainty.
