TORCHE, the four-pronged riff colossus, led by vocalist/guitarist Steve Brooks (Floor), Jonathan Nuñez and Rick Smith (Shitstorm) and new guitarist, Andrew Elstner, (former vocalist/guitarist for St. Louis Riddle of Steel), have been steamrolling the underground-metal scene since making waves in 2008 with the release of Meanderthal, their second full-length album. Accolades have been well received from the underground metal scene, a whole new crop of fans take notice for the first time; including the mainstream indie rock community. With outlets like Pitchfork, Spin, Paste and Stereogum piling praise upon the band for their super heavy yet totally accessible brand of melodic metal, TORCHE soon found themselves on top of the underground metal heap, not to mention plenty of Year-End lists, most notably grabbing the #1 spot on Decibel Magazine s Top 40 Albums of 2008. On their new and third proper full-length, Harmonicraft, mixed by Kurt Ballou of Converge, TORCHE deliver a heaping helping of tasty riffs and rip with a smile melodic rock songs that are sure to propel them out of the underground metal scene.
