Alcatraz Line up: 2022, 2024

Thrash metal with strong metalcore influences without losing track of the melody, or the equivalent of going full throttle without ending up in a ditch. Temptations for the Weak have all their ducks in a row. It’s important to take things one step at a time. Formed in 2011, Temptations for the Weak have taken this advice to heart .On their third long player ‘Fallen from the Stars’ (2022) they make the jump into hyperspace. The songwriting skills were already there but the addition of Jadran Beauprez as the new vocalist was a masterstroke. As a result, Dioni Tregub was free to concentrate on guitar duties and it paid off in spades. Third time is the charm and in this case it’s true .They’ve got all the angles covered on their third album and that includes the visual aspect – just check out the video for ‘In Between’ and you’ll see what we mean. The album even has the obligatory hymn with ‘Homeland’. These guys are going places, starting with Alcatraz this summer.
