User Album Review
Torche return with Admission, their first album in four years, and new to the fold are melodic moments that feel both texturally and structurally drawn from synth pop, offering a shot of distinct and deliberate moody beauty to the proceedings. Those interjections of synth pop aren’t in place of overdriven rock guitars but played alongside them. The result is a sound that feels like the group coming to fullness, embracing both the physical rhythmic power of heavy as hell rock music and the explicit emotionalism of synth pop that just so happens to break them from the shackles of their own past.
However, the band seems trepidatious to fully commit to this idea, sprinkling in a few more traditional Torche songs. This is a bit of a shame — not that those more traditional songs are weak, as much as the more adventurous newer songs are stronger. However, given both that Admission is overall a step up from 2015’s Restarter, and that the band was brave enough to pursue these ideas in the first place, one can only imagine the next Torche album will be even better. The group doesn’t appear to be out of ideas quite yet.
