Torch

The band was formed 1980 by Chris J. First, Steve Streaker and Claus Wildt. Stefan Wedlund did the vocals but soon Dan Dark joined the band to do the voice. The band released their debut EP "Fireraiser" in 1982, and shortly after that they toured around Europe and did some festivals with as well as Motörhead as the German heavy metal band Warlock. After nearly twenty years of silence Dan Dark started to plan a couple of reunion shows. Dan contacted the other guys in the band to see if they were up for it but unfortunately it seemed that due to various things Dan was the only guy who had the time and effort, to put the old metal machine rolling again. He had the idea of putting the band together again for a long time and he wouldn't give up the dream of playing the old songs again to the fans. Dan contacted the bass player Alx Jonsson (Scaar,Fatale Smile) who also plays with Dan in the Accept tribute band (Except) and the guitarist Tomi Peltonen (Griffen,OzzBand) as well as the drummer Kristian Huotari (Scaar,OzzBand) to see if there were any interest of playing some good old heavy metal, and hell yeah, they were fucking ready to do it. The crusade has only just begun so prepare yourself for the metal ride of your life. Stay tuned.
