Re: Torche
Floor rules, and Torche has been one of my favorite bands for quite a while now. Saw them right after Meanderthal opened, and it blew me away. I might be one of the few that actually dug Songs for Singles. Just recently listened to Harmonicraft, and it's like they cranked up the zany. At times, it's like a Thin Lizzy album. Fucking yes.
But, honestly, this. Fuuuuuucking this.

Re: Torche
That album alone makes it worth $20. Although I dig some of the s/t and the booklet is pretty cool, the boxset is basically for completists only, especially given the super awkward vinyl-sized packaging.D.o.S. wrote:Yeah, I passed because I already have Dove and don't care much for the S/T, but definitely a killer deal.
Special low-frequency version.

Re: Torche
See, I've got no problem with the poppier side of things in general, so I love where Torche's been going. Only just discovered Floor in the past year or so, and dig it as well.

Re: Torche
Did you not go see them with Big Biz and Helms Alee a couple years ago in Cambridge? I feel like there were other ILFers there.

Re: Torche
That's rad. Before Big BIz (but after KARP) Jared did vocals for The Tight Bros From Way Back When, who I absolutely adore. Like an MC5 style band.space6oy wrote:one of my best friends is actually buddies w/ the big biz guys. got to meet them a year or so ago when they hit cbus. nice dudes.

Re: Torche
This show I went to in Cleveland is probably top to bottom the best, most fun show I have been to. All three bands were tremendously good and Torche is just so fantastic live.trace wrote:I saw this tour in DC and it was like, the best thing to ever happen ever.D.o.S. wrote:Did you not go see them with Big Biz and Helms Alee a couple years ago in Cambridge?
