Temptation Come My Way is The Showdown's second album. It features a more focused sound than their previous album, which was a fusion of various heavy metal genres. The sound of Temptation Come My Way is southern rock combined with more traditional heavy metal.[1] It is also the last album to feature Andrew Hall, before being replaced by former Still Remains drummer AJ Barrette.
