Maybe why people listen to Torche is they like them.. Just a guess. I agree with bear.

Just saw torche (pronounced silent E by the band) tonight in toronto. they need more layers, i.e. juan, but are still heavy. they are too smiley and goofy to take seriously though. they aren’t really angry, which sucks.

funnily, we noticed sooo many beards, as per your ‘are beards metal?’ post. your answer in this context: bushy beards are sludgy post-hardcore, not real metal, rather hipster digestible – acceptable in my books, when the band is decent, i.e. children, early man, sword.

Saw these guys at atp nightmare before christmas with the melvins and fantomas, they were very good live. I think that was the last show they played with the second guitarist.

They’ve already recorded and released something since the full length, haven’t they?

Yeah, judging by the music too it seems to fit on MTV…

Maybe it’s because Harvey Milk sucks? I thought they should’ve headlined the Dredg show…

That Zooey Deschanel song in that cotton ad before the video was brutal.

Solid album, but the video isn’t suiting and does it no justice. For some reason the style and production of the video seems like it would fit on MTV. It’s weird even saying that….

I love Torche. The only shit thing about them is that they’re taking so long to record new music.

Fuck this shitty band. I saw them open for Harvey Milk this past Saturday in Chicago. I’d really like to know why people listened to Torche and left when Harvey Milk came on. Torche was shitty when they were called Floor and are even worse now. If you’ve never seen anyone rock so hard, I can only assume they are the only live band you’ve ever seen.

Granted, this is the first I have heard of this band, but… I don’t get it.

This band blew me away when I first saw them open a year ago. I saw them again a few months back (opening for dredg… an intersting bill) and they just aren’t the same without a second guitarist. And newsflash, this song was recorded when Juan was still in the band.
