"It’s an extraordinary scene to those who don’t understand but what you have seen you must believe if you can"
Torque Armada was formed over a monster new year’s hangover 04/05, in an attempt to give something meaningful to a dying local "scene". Paul Harmer, Dave Moriaty recruited drummer, Lee Hutchings, after brief spells with other local sticksmen and entered the studios within a month to record New Trend Geek Scene; 4-tracks “stuffed with balls†says METAL HAMMER and who are we to argue?
2006, the group’s first full year, began with yet more recording as the band had set their sights on a UK tour! 6 tracks were laid down and in July, to coincide with the band’s trek across the country, Lollipops & Pills was released and a convoy of Ford Fiestas hit the road! After a hectic summer schedule the three-piece re-entered the studio to begin work on their first full-length release.
Torque Armada received airplay on Channel 4’s Freesports on 4 shows at the beginning of 2007 and picked up rave reviews of their debut album, Users and the Wasted Youth.
Sadly though, as the year drew to close, Paul left the band looking to start a new chapter in his life. Lee is now writing TV sketches and scripts whille Dave is promoting gigs under the name Geek Scene Promotions and plays in the band, Teen Death Squad, on the side.
