Torches has gone through several changes throughout the years; everything from their band name to their soundscape has evolved. New experiments and realizations, however, have been favorable for the L.A. duo. The band is currently preparing for the release of their new EP and each tune, so far, has wonderfully been inching toward luxuriously full pop arrangements. It’s an impressive feat considering their music initially started out in a realm of dream-pop tinted with dark psychedelia. Producer David Newton (the Soft Pack, Henry Clay People) has, of course, lent his magic touches on songs like the fetching title track single “Endlessly Repeating,” but it’s the new energy of singer-guitarist Azad Cheikosman and drummer Eric Fabbro that marks this new batch of songs as stimulating. Torches’ “Endlessly Repeating” EP is slated for a June 17 release.
