BIOGRAPHY

One of the major contenders in the revival of heavy metal in Australia, Temtris is already known as one of the most dynamic bands in the genre. Displaying an infectious blend of technical skill and powerful song-writing ability, they are taking their unique sound and appeal to the world. Temtris are a metal rarity, a direct result of the band’s constant conviction to their craft and their fans, though to founding members Anthony Roberts (Guitar) and Genevieve Rodda (Vocals). In 2002, the group sought a more aggressive edge, and was joined by guitarist/songwriter Llew ‘Azhael’ Smith (Deiform, Malice, Ravensgate). The band discovered a young and talented drummer in their home town by the name of Tom Wallace, quickly dubbed ‘The Machine’ for his machine-gun like double kick abilities, followed by Bass Guitarist Gavin Swan. It had been a long time between albums and fuelled by the enthusiasm of the new recruits Temtris headed back to the studio. The result was ‘Masquerade’ a dark and edgy collection of songs which in many ways pushed the band further into the ‘unique’ label with its raw sound and musical experimentation. Temtris continue to carve their own unique and dynamic musical niche in the metal realm. Temtris is just metal ‘the way they want to hear it’
