Progressive metal outfit TEMIC have unveiled a live rendition of fan-favorite "Skeletons" across digital platforms. The release not only shines a spotlight on the band's acclaimed live presence but also builds anticipation for their upcoming sophomore studio album as they prepare to embark on a European tour this fall.

The performance was recorded at Poppodium Boerderij in Zoetermeer, the Netherlands, during the band's 2025 European tour. Clocking in at nearly seven minutes, the live version highlights TEMIC's remarkable onstage chemistry and dynamic interplay, offering a looser, more expansive interpretation of the track than its original studio counterpart.

"Skeletons" originally appeared on the band's 2023 debut album, Terror Management Theory. Upon its release, the record drew widespread attention from the international metal community, achieved notable success across digital platforms, and quickly established itself as one of the standout modern progressive metal debuts of recent years.

Featuring Diego Tejeida, Eric Gillette, Simen Sandnes, and Fredrik Bergersen Klemp, TEMIC rapidly forged its own identity by blending atmospheric textures inspired by electronic music with a contemporary progressive metal approach. Although the project's foundations were laid in 2017, conflicting schedules delayed its realization until after 2020.

The newly released live recording marks one of the band's first major offerings ahead of its second full-length album. While the as-yet-untitled record is said to revolve around themes of grief, loss, and emotional confrontation, an official announcement is expected in the near future.

TEMIC will also hit the road this fall alongside Italian progressive metal act Kingcrow, their labelmates on Season of Mist. The first batch of tour dates has been confirmed, covering France, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, and Poland, with additional shows expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

TEMIC's live performance of "Skeletons" is now available to stream on all major digital music platforms.
