London fivepiece Torches have revealed details of their forthcoming new single, out 5 November on vinyl via Heart Throb Records. The A-side cut, entitled ‘Someone Needs A Ritual’, is a markedly upbeat offering from the doom-poppers, all rattling percussion and driving instrumentation. It’s the kind of track you can imagine the exhumed corpse of Ian Curtis losing his shit to. If you have a really sinister mind, that is.
