Templegate is a heavy metal band from Prestatyn, Wales, formed in 2018. Their music channels traditional heavy metal from the north Welsh coast, drawing from the classic British metal tradition.
Temples is a sludge/stoner/doom metal band from Helsinki, Finland, formed in 2013. They combine sludge, stoner, and doom into a crushing wall of heaviness.
Progressive and post-metal band from Gabrovo, Bulgaria, formed in 2024 with a philosophy rooted in nature and the rejection of modern civilization's noise. Their debut album May I Reach Dawn (June 2025) is a ten-track atmospheric journey released across streaming platforms and Bandcamp, drawing comparisons to progressive rock as much as metal. The band's self-description—'found deep within the dense forests'—establishes the natural world as their central thematic and aesthetic framework.
Temps de Chien from Brittany craft black metal under a French expression meaning 'dog weather' or 'foul weather,' perfectly capturing the grey, rain-lashed Breton climate since 2016. A decade of storm-soaked compositions channels the Celtic Atlantic coast's relentless weather through raw extremity.
Tempt Fate from Toulouse deliver thrash and death metal with the daredevil recklessness their name promises since 2018. Their compositions channel the defiance of destiny through aggressive metal from the Pink City of southwestern France.
Formed in Antwerp in 2011, Temptations for the Weak play modern metalcore that draws on Machine Head, Killswitch Engage, and Trivium while maintaining a distinctly aggressive identity. The band recorded their 2026 album The Venom Inside at Grindstone Studio in the UK with producer Scott Atkins, and it features a collaboration with Jesse Leach of Killswitch Engage on the track 'Crossroads.'
Rotterdam's Tempter blend traditional heavy metal's melodic sensibility with doom metal's ponderous weight, occupying a middle ground between fist-raising anthems and suffocating heaviness since 2013. Their hybrid approach appeals to fans of both classic metal and the slower, heavier end of the spectrum.
Tempus Fusion is a progressive metal project from Bordon, Hampshire, active since 2012, drawing inspiration from Devin Townsend, Dream Theater, and TesseracT. Their album 'To End It All' features nine tracks of intricate, ambient-tinged progressive metal with layered soundscapes and complex compositions.
Tempête de Neige from France craft atmospheric black metal and ambient under a French name meaning 'snowstorm,' channeling blizzard conditions through ethereal, freezing compositions since 2024. Their meteorological name drives music as white-out disorienting and bitterly cold as their namesake.
