Like Torches

Stockholm, Sweden’s rock quintet Like Torches have greatly evolved since the release of 2013’s Keep Your Head High. The band can be best described as alternative, driving, infectious, modern, pop-punk inspired, testosterone fueled yet melodically uplifting rock. These five passionate musicians have worked diligently and hard on two continents over the last several years to create a fresh, stellar rock album for the current times. Fans of guitar driven, melodic rock will appreciate and embrace what they have created on their Victory debut Loves And Losses.

Yellowcard vocalist Ryan Key took lead as producer as the Swedish outfit packed up and took to the streets of Nashville to create Loves And Losses. Key interjects, “It’s hard to explain the excitement hearing your work completed like this, so proud of these dudes and these songs.” On the recording of the band’s first material in over two years, Karn explains, “We wanted to combat our normal surroundings, and the culture of ‘Music City’ helped us be more creative and filled us with so much inspiration so we could find our perfect sound. We literally explored new territories and that allowed us to feel the highs and lows of being in a band, hence the name Loves And Losses.”

Like Torches, rounded out by second vocalist and guitarist Daniel Karn, guitarist Erik Thyr, bassist Zakarias Faleij and drummer Jimmy Brunkvist, have toured with such artists as Hit The Lights, Memphis May Fire, Taking Back Sunday, Yellowcard and many others across Europe, Japan, the United States and Australia.
