Four years since the critically-acclaimed Restarted and TORCHE are now back to set flame with the heavy-hitting sludge outing Admission, out on July 12, 2019 via Relapse Records. The Miami unit up the ante with a crushing fifth composition that comes accompanied by Richard Vergez' artistic depth. This all comes accompanied by a string of shows that provide audiences with the opportunity to engage with Admission in a live setting.


Guitarist Jon Nuñez on the announcement:


“This album is more revealing of who we are. I think the core of the band is happier and more inspired than we have been in some time, and we’ve got somebody new who’s excited to be a part of it. It’s just refreshing. It feels right. It feels real.”


Drummer Rick Smith comments:


"’Slide’ is one of the first songs Eric came to the table with, fully realized and arranged. Eric is a total beast of a songwriter. I suggested he use the first three Gary Numan records as inspiration and he came back at us with some melodically sound material that nailed the Torche vibe.”
