UK four-piece Temples‘ debut album, Sun Structures, is out next week (2/11) and if you’re looking for a dose of sunny psychedelia a la Tame Impala you should definitely check it out. (Temples are a little more Beatlesque than those Australians, however.) You can stream the whole thing via NPR and you can watch the band’s stop-motion animated video for new single “Mesmerise” below.

The band will be in North America this spring for Coachella and Austin Psych Fest and will be touring around the continent around them. Temples were really good when I saw them at Union Pool late last year, they’re definitely worth checking out. No NYC show as of yet, but all dates are listed below…
