Torche: Songs for Singles EP (Hydra Head, 9/21/10)
Torche: “Arrowhead”
[audio:https://alarm-magazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Torche_Arrowhead.mp3|titles=Torche: “Arrowhead”]Over the course of two albums and a few EPs, Florida’s Torche has developed an appeal across genre lines, attracting stoner-metal fans as well as the sing-along crowd. The band (now a trio) earned some serious buzz from its 2008 full-length album, Meanderthal, which coupled a strong melodic emphasis with thick distortion, catchy riffs, and wailing vocals.
Songs for Singles, essentially, is more of the same two-minute tracks, each powerful yet approachable enough to be played on the radio. If you’re not familiar with the band’s signature combination of punk melodies and beats, guitar harmonics, and overdubbed vocals, you should get acquainted.
