TEMIC certainly lived up to the hype with their chart-topping debut, but the international prog supergroup have grown by leaps and bounds on their mighty and magical second album. Fans and critics are trembling in anticipation for Ceiba, the group’s thunderous ode to loss. “TEMIC are back in full bloom with Ceiba”, Metal Injection writes in this month’s edition of the Progressive Injection. Prog Magazine agreed, naming the album’s lead single “Ceased to Be” a track of the week. Today, TEMIC are releasing the second advanced single from Ceiba. “Broken” bares the album’s soul with grief and grace. “‘Broken’ is built around overwhelming emotion and honesty”, TEMIC vocalist Fredrik Klemp says. “We wrote the song in 30 minutes. It came together instinctively. There was no need to overthink it or make it into something more than what it already was. We simply allowed it to be what it is. I think that’s where the song gets its strength”. “The honesty of this song became very important to my v

From the moment they joined forces, TEMIC appeared as a dream come true for prog fans everywhere. The international supergroup features current and former members of Devin Townsend, Mike Portnoy’s Shattered Fortress, Neal Morse Band, Haken, Shining, Maraton and Big City. The group’s chart-topping debut lived up to the hype, but on their upcoming new album, Ceiba, they’ve grown by leaps and bounds. Today, TEMIC are officially announcing the mighty and magical Ceiba with a soul-stirring video for the album’s lead single. While rattled by the encroaching shadow of death, “Ceased to Be” positively ascends by crossing the threshold between progressive metal, pop and hard rock. “Ceiba is a concept album about loss in all its various forms”, TEMIC says. “While more progressive than our first album, the songs are driven by honesty and emotions. ‘Ceased to Be’ is told from the perspective of someone who’s dying, while surrounded by their loved ones. Death is not feared nor resisted. Rather, it

As they come closer to announcing their second album, a thunderous ode to grief and loss, ahead of a fall European tour with very special guest and Season of Mist labelmates Kingcrow, today, TEMIC are releasing a new single. Recorded live at Poppodium Boerderij in Zoetermeer, Netherlands during their 2025 European co-headline tour, fan-favorite “Skeletons” gets the crowd’s blood pumping by putting the band’s extraordinary chemistry on full display. “We love playing live.

As they prepare to announce their thunderous and grief-stricken follow-up album, TEMIC are releasing a new video for “Paradigm”. Recorded live at Poppodium Boerderij in Zoetermeer, Netherlands during the band’s 2025 European co-headline tour, this setlist highlight displays the full range of their prog-metal star power. “‘Paradigm’ is one of those songs that poured out in a single writing session”, TEMIC guitarist and vocalist Eric Gillette says. “I had this concept for someone traveling vast distances through space. They’re slowly trapped inside a kind of cryosleep, only for it to transform into their version of paradise. The song came together in a way that felt really natural. It’s one of my favorite songs to play live, especially with the vocal interplay with Fredrik. ‘Paradigm’ is always a powerful moment in our set”.
