But after recruiting former soccer prodigy-turned-Zildjian-endorsed drummer <strong>Simen Sandnes<\/strong> (Shining, Arkentype) to go along with the high-powered falsetto of <strong>Fredrik Klemp<\/strong> (Maraton), together, the supergroup managed to connect all those puzzle pieces on their very first album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Terror Management Theory<\/em><\/strong> is perfect for busting out the air guitar. But now fans can also hit all the album&#8217;s high notes by downloading the song stems on Bandcamp. With these stems, budding musicians can learn the guitar, bass, drum and keyboard parts for all 10 songs. They can also be used by producers to remix prog anthems like <strong><em>Count Your Losses<\/em><\/strong> into thumping club bangers or a stripped-down yet soaring ballad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Temic <\/strong>came together from across the globe, but they also share a wide variety of influences. Check out the playlist that the prog supergroup update each month on Spotify.
