Torche. If you are unfamiliar because you are living under a rock or have been time travelling since the early 2000’s, sit up – it’s time to take notes. From all over the US, the trio don’t like to be pigeonholed with a genre, but say for arguments sake, we’ll call them “progressive metal” – but don’t generalise; they influence and take influence from various sub-genres. They have toured with the likes of Mogwai, The Sword and Baroness and more recently a massive US tour with Coheed and Cambria.
“Songs For Singles” is their third full length album and it will be unleashed on October 4. Does what it says on the tin, these eight tracks are “basically a super solid collection of singles” (and not songs for the relationship status).
No UK dates have been confirmed to accompany the album, but fingers crossed, watch this space.
