Lauded UK psychedelic rockers Temples have shared the video for “You’re Either On Something“, the second single from their forthcoming third album, Hot Motion – to be released worldwide on ATO Records THIS WEEK, Friday September 27th. The beloved three-piece will begin their US tour on October 11, starting at Desert Daze Festival in California.

In describing the mind-bending, technicolor video, Temples’ frontman James Bagshaw says: “The video for ‘You’re Either On Something’ is semi-surreal depiction of a night out. Where an irrational fear replaces the fun and joviality, and the familiar becomes unfamiliar. But then, the feeling a fear dissipates and seems like a distant memory and the familiar feels comfortable again. Before you know it a guitar solo ensues…”
Hot Motion follows their acclaimed albums Sun Structures (2014) & Volcano (2017) and is Temples’ debut release for esteemed indie label ATO Records. With previous singles “Hot Motion,” “You’re Either On Something,” and “Context” already picking up glowing reviews and radio support from KCRW, KEXP, The Current, WXPN, WRLT, WTMD and more. It’s an album fizzing with ideas, bursting with kinetic energy and balancing an immediate impact with an enduring, timeless intensity.
A cohesive album in a time of stand alone singles, with Hot Motion Temples have created an aural tapestry for dark days; an inviting and warm sanctuary away from the daily churn of information overload. It’s an album of complexity, crafted for repeat listening.
Renowned for their mesmerizing live performances and having just played stunning sets at this year’s All Points East Festival and Manchester Psych Fest, Temples have also announced a U.K. and European headline tour in the early winter, a number of festival shows over the summer and an extensive U.S. tour in the autumn, including performances at Desert Daze Festival and VooDoo Music Experience.
