Temperstrain, a four member band formed in Austin, Texas in 1997,
unite intelligent lyrics with aggressive, soulful modern rock.
Crunching, distorted and down-tuned guitar licks ride a dark groove of
complex drum and bass rhythms while sometimes crooning, sometimes
primal-screaming vocals soar overhead. Temperstrain draw on wide-
ranging influences to create a sound with broad appeal: hard enough for
the hardcore in the mosh pit, melodic enough for those who prefer
songs of raw but elegant emotional power.
Temperstrain have been performing around Texas for the past two
years. Additionally, they have performed live on the Austin Music
Network during SXSW ‘98, received airplay on KLBJ-FM radio's
“Local Licks”, were featured on the cable-access music showcase
Capzeyez, on San Marcos' KIND-FM radio and were chosen for a
SXSW 2000 after-hours showcase for Audiopia.com.
Temperstrain released VIRAGO, their first full-length album in January
2000. VIRAGO is currently available at independent record stores in
Austin and through their website, www.temperstrain.web.com. They
have three previous self-released recordings . Temperstrain is currently
in the process of planning a Summer 2000 tour of the Midwest.
Temperstrain are Samuel Fitch, vocals; Kris Owen, guitar; Jake
Perlman, drums and Justin Radke, bass.
