Torche
Torche, our favorite sludge pop geniuses, who by our reckoning should be HUGE. They may be heavy and loud and distorted, and feature members of Shitstorm and Floor and Dove, but the music they make as Torche is something else entirely. The guitars massive chugging and crunchy, the drums pounding and brutal, the bass thick and buzzy, the vocals a totally unique wail / croon, they sound a bit like the Foo Fighters, if the Foo Fighters were heavier and catchier and more punk rock.
Big guitars, a killer hook of a chorus, amazing harmonies, kick ass drumming, even some shredding leads, this band just keeps getting better and better, but also tighter and more polished, without ever sounding wussier or like sellouts.

Tides Of Man
Tides of Man, the progressive rock group hailing from Tampa Bay Florida, are set to release their debut full-length album, Empire Theory in early 2009.
Formed in December 2007, they released their self-titled EP only a few months later (April 2008). It is now available on iTunes and other online digital distribution stores, permitting their fast-growing fan-base to sample some of the musical styles that will be featured on the album, Empire Theory.
In the final stages of composition, Empire Theory's detectable influences span from The Mars Volta, Coheed & Cambria and Bjork, to Explosions in the Sky, Radiohead and Pink Floyd. The album's epic story tackles contemporary world issues, but focuses on communicating purpose, success and failure, war, torture, hate, love, friendship forgiveness and enlightenment. Tides of Man seek to inspire individuals to create beauty in their own lives, whether through art or simply by improving their day-to-day decisions.
