Témpano are a Venezuelan art-rock/pop band formed in 1977. The band’s first album, Åtabal-Yémal, appeared in 1980 on Vinyl Internacional. Subsequent ’80s-era albums appeared on Color and CBS. In 1998, Musea reissued the first album with different cover art and this netted a global cult following that reactivated the band for the 21st century.
