Now this is going to be a great tour. Torche have announced a Summer go-around the US and will be taking one half of The Melvins, that's Big Business to you sir, out on a Summer tour. These are two of the best stoner rock bands out there right now. Both bands hold a very special place in my heart, especially Big Business and their 2007 release Here Comes The Waterworks easily being one of my favorite records of all time for sheer fucking catchiness. Torche themselves know a thing or two about writing both catchy and ridiculously heavy songs. Here is the current itinerary:
