Torche – Prepare for Isis Tour – Information About New Album/Releases

Monday, February 26, 2007

Miami, Florida’s TORCHE are geared up for a busy year, with several new releases planned, heavy time on the road and the recording of their sophomore album. First and foremost, TORCHE will join ISIS and JESU for a February/March tour spanning most of the south-east and east coast.

A special re-mixed version of TORCHE’s acclaimed Self-Titled debut full-length will first be made available on this tour, as a deluxe gatefold vinyl LP. The entire album has been re-mixed from the ground up and now features an additional track originally recorded during the same session, but only recently receiving some seriously epic vocal treatment. The CD version of this will hit stores later this summer through Rock Action in Europe, and as a 2xCD in North America through Robotic Empire featuring both the new remixed version as disc 1 and the untreated original mix as disc 2.

Following the tour with ISIS and JESU, the band will return to Miami to put the finishing touches on their sophomore album, which will be recorded by Kurt Ballou at Godcity in Boston during late May/early June.

TORCHE will tour both to and from Boston around this time, playing with some seriously incredible groups on this jaunt. More details will be announced as they become available, but in the meantime be sure to catch them on tour if you want to preview some of the songs intended for this album:
