Temperance have unveiled a new acoustic song “Evelyn.” The track is one of the two brand new songs taken from their upcoming acoustic EP, Melodies of Green And Blue. The EP will be released on February 19th, via Napalm Records and will feature acoustic renditions from their latest effort, Viridian. 

Guitarist/singer Marco Pastorino comments:

“I‘ve had that song in my mind for a long time, inspired by Evelyn McHale, the protagonist from one of the most famous photos ever, a girl who died jumping from the 86th floor of the Empire State Building in New York. Evelyn is a sort of journey through her life, doubts, questions without answers, guided by a different song, a different style we‘ve never presented before. Close your eyes and begin to relax into this acoustic world…“

Singer Michele Guaitoli adds:

“We’ve been talking about recording some acoustic versions of our tracks for a long time, as we all love the intimate and emotional feeling that this particular style can offer to any tracks. If you think of it, this is how most of our songs are composed: it’s Marco on his guitar or me on the piano. Everything for us begins in acoustic before going metal. This EP is a little dream come true, as we can finally show the heart of our music in its purest version.”
