Interview with Light The Torch
We had the pleasure of interviewing Howard Jones of Light The Torch over Zoom video!\xa0
Time fortifies\xa0the\xa0bonds between us. Since emerging in 2018,\xa0Light\xa0The\xa0Torch\xa0have grown stronger in lockstep together as a band and as friends. Through this growth,\xa0the\xa0Los Angeles, CA trio\u2014Howard Jones [vocals], Francesco Artusato [guitar], and Ryan Wombacher [bass]\u2014only enhanced every aspect of their signature sound. Upheld by head-spinning seven-string virtuosity, yet also anchored to skyscraping melodies,\xa0the\xa0group crafted twelve no-nonsense and no-holds-barred metallic anthems on their 2021 second full-length album,\xa0You Will Be\xa0The\xa0Death of Me\xa0[Nuclear Blast].
The\xa0group shot out of\xa0the\xa0gate as a contender on their full-length debut,\xa0Revival. It bowed at #4 on\xa0the\xa0Billboard\xa0US Independent Albums Chart and at #10 on\xa0the\xa0Hard Rock Albums Chart in addition to receiving acclaim from\xa0Revolver,\xa0Outburn, and many more. \u201cCalm Before\xa0the\xa0Storm\u201d racked up a staggering 14.5 million Spotify streams, while \u201cThe\xa0Safety of Disbelief\u201d remains one of SiriusXM Octane\u2019s all-time most requested songs. They also crisscrossed North America and Europe on tour with\xa0the\xa0likes of Trivium, Avatar, In Flames, Ice Nine Kills, Killswitch Engage and August Burns Red to name a few.
In late 2019, an idea for\xa0the\xa0title track \u201cDeath of Me\u201d kickstarted\xa0the\xa0creative process.\xa0The\xa0guys returned to Sparrow Sound in Glendale, CA to once again work with\xa0the\xa0production team of Josh Gilbert and Joseph McQueen [Bullet for My Valentine, As I Lay Dying, Suicide Silence]
Light\xa0The\xa0Torch\xa0burns brighter than ever in\xa0the\xa0music as they deliver a definitive statement with\xa0You Will Be\xa0The\xa0Death Of Me.
