Following performances alongside Iron Maiden, Bon Jovi, and Alter Bridge, NYC rock band Tempt will unveil their debut album this summer.

Announced today, their self-titled debut album is slated for an August 25 release on Better Noise Music. The record was co-produced and mixed by Grammy Award-winner Chris Lord-Alge (Harry Styles, Foo Fighters, Muse) and Tempt guitarist Harrison Marcello at NYC’s Sticky Audio Labs.

The first single from the record titled “Burn Me Down” comes with a music video directed by Daniel Marracino of Love Seat Entertainment. Vocalist Zach Allen said this about the new song:

"Our new single 'Burn Me Down' delves into the intense and addictive nature of a toxic love. It captures the bittersweet realization that someone has the power to consume you completely, even when you know it's not healthy. It's a raw expression of the conflicting emotions that arise when you can't resist the fire that's destined to burn you."

Marcello also said:

"‘Burn Me Down’ reflects the chaos of passion and desire. We wrote it with driving riffs and electrifying energy to capture that feeling. it's about the kind of love that both exhilarates and destroys, and the inner turmoil we experience when we're caught in its relentless cycle, unable to escape the allure of someone who has the power to ignite and consume us."

Pre-orders for Tempt’s self-titled album can be made here. Limited-edition signed copies of the album can be pre-ordered on their Bandcamp page. “Burn Me Down” is on digital services right now.
