On June 25th, Light the Torch’s new album, You Will Be the Death of Me, will be released via Nuclear Blast. Today (4th), the group has announced a record-release Livestream event on the album’s release date at 7PM ET. The virtual stream will include songs from the band’s new album along with a VIP Zoom hang out with the band prior. Tickets for the performance are $12 and available at this location. To celebrate the upcoming Livestream and album, the band has shared a Ramon Boutviseth-directed video for the song “Let Me Fall Apart.”
Vocalist Howard Jones comments:
“I loved this song as soon as I heard it. The music stuck in my head, so I knew I had to work on it right from the beginning of writing the new album. [Guitarist] Francesco [Artusato] wrote a huge chorus so I did my best to match that energy. We are thrilled for this to finally see the light of day.”
Guitarist Francesco Artusato adds:
“The initial idea for this song was to combine an ‘old school’ type of guitar riff and vibe — because I love to hear Howard sing over that style — with a more ‘contemporary’ type of arrangement and chorus. I remember writing and arranging the chorus, and feeling that it had the potential to become great knowing what Howard could do with it. And of course he delivered once again. This was one of the first songs that we worked on during pre-production and it felt really good right away. It was definitely one of the songs that helped shape the sound for the rest of the record.”
