TOUCH AMORE – Lament

LP – Limited Edition Orange Vinyl


Touché Amoré has been burrowing through angst, alienation, cancer, and heartbreak throughout four adored studio albums. After over a decade of working through darkness, the bands gorgeously gruff fifth album, Lament, finds the light at the end of the tunnel. Through 11 songs, Touché Amoré looks back at its past and uses hard-won optimism to point its fans toward light, and love. For the follow up to the their critically acclaimed 2016 release, Stage Four, Touché Amoré have opted to get out of their comfort zone and work with a new producer, the famously demanding Ross Robinson (Slipknot, Korn, At the Drive-In). Both Robinson and Touché Amoré are known for their trademark intensity.

 

I believe there was an unspoken learning curve between Rosss methods and the understanding that Ive poured myself into the words and mean every one of them, vocalist Jeremy Bolm says. Robinson agreed to a rare one-song test recording last summer, which resulted in the song Deflector, released last fall. In the end, Deflector proved the producer/band combo was undoubtedly the right fit. Robinson made Bolm read out all of his confessional lyrics to his bandmates to make sure they understood their emotional content. Making Bolm read those lyrics turned out to be what helped make their emotions palpable in the final recording. With its ruminations on the draining human connection (Ill test the water/I wont dive right in/Thats too personal/Im too delicate), Laments first helping is a sharp intro to the albums themes. Lament is their masterstroke. Its longer, structured songs soar with a ferocious but delicate musicality and powerful, gut-wrenching storytelling that smashes previous heights. Yet as much as the band has grown and matured via everything theyve endured, its perhaps equally impressive how theyve managed to stay true to their core
