Childs enthusiastically stated, “Eonian Records is the perfect match for Electric Temple! Stephen and Ryan have vast experience in promoting bands in our genre, along with an extensive global distribution network. This ensures that metal fans everywhere can join Electric Temple’s ‘rock is religion’ congregation. We’re thrilled to be working with a label that has a proven track record of working with great bands and a hands-on approach for making our worldwide debut album release a success!”
Ryan Northrop of Eonian Records, “We hope music fans will really enjoy this new ELECTRIC TEMPLE release. I have known Tony for a long, long time dating back before the Shanghai days! He is a brilliant musician and an even better person! To bring together musicians of this caliber is something special. After the first listen of the masters, I was completely blown away! It completely brought me back to classic Dio, Judas Priest, Ozzy, and Black Sabbath. The chemistry with these guys is undeniable. Eonian Records is proud to be part of such a great release!”
"This one rocks! BIG BLACK HOLE is an amazing rock track that gives a nostalgic sound to me with its heavy guitar riffs and vocal quality. The production and instrumental is perfectly crafted and is really commendable." - The Gatekeeper Space
"These guitars are SO HEAVY, but in a vintage metal way instead of a modern death or black metal way. The bass and the guitars feel warm but BEEFY. It's got a great riff and groove, and the vocals are EPIC. This feels like a modern take on what made the 70s and 80s such a good time for rock. You won us over, guys. Well done!" - Provo Music Magazine
In their quest to keep the flames of rock burning bright, Electric Temple champions the belief that “Rock is Religion”. Tony Childs explains “I was going through a rough patch in my life the last few years where a lot of dark things were happening around me, to loved ones, as well as myself. I needed a cathartic way to deal with it. So almost by osmosis I started creating music in a proper old school metal style that I loved but rarely heard anymore. It was quickly evident that it brought me back to my youth when hard rock/metal became my religion and helped me cope with teenage problems. This genre of rock still has the same impact on me today and still has the healing power that "saves my soul". Electric Temple was born out of the need to express myself artistically, go to a place where I could “worship” freely and be able to share my mantra “Rock is Religion”. “
This mantra fuels their relentless pursuit of sonic excellence and their mission to ignite passion in the hearts of all who embrace that old school rock and roll spirit. Who Said Rock Was Dead?
