Italian symphonic power metal band Temperance has released its new studio album, Arcani, on Friday, October 16, via Napalm Records. The album, structured around the Major Arcana Tarot deck, features 13 tracks that explore themes of fate, power, and personal transformation. The record marks the band's seventh full-length release and showcases their signature blend of symphonic grandeur, dynamic vocal harmonies, and intricate guitar work.

The fourth single from the album, "The Fool," serves as the opening track and was released ahead of the album's launch. The song features a unique instrumental intro and duet vocals between Kristin Starkey and male band members, highlighting the group's trademark vocal contrast. Each track corresponds to a Tarot card, with lyrics drawn from personal experiences and group reflections, reinforcing the album's narrative depth.

Temperance will tour Europe as part of the Dark Asylum World Tour, opening for labelmates Kamelot and Exit Eden starting October 31. The tour spans multiple European cities and includes performances that highlight the full scope of the new album. The band has confirmed the full itinerary in the official poster accompanying the announcement.

Arcani is available in multiple formats including a limited 100-copy gatefold vinyl (Inkspot Black/Red), standard gatefold vinyl, CD digipak, instrumental CD, and digital download. Pre-orders are available through the Napalm Records website. The album follows a series of previous releases and continues Temperance's trajectory as a leading force in the symphonic metal genre.
