About Me

ABOUT TORQUE RECORDING COMPANY
We're an indie label in Saskatchewan, and we want to be YOUR rock label. We're distributed in Canada through Sonic Unyon, and everywhere else through Victory Records. If it's hardcore, metal, punk, or rock, we want to do it, and do it well. Submissions are great, and we will, eventually, listen to everything that gets sent. Please don't bother with anything remotely resmebling Creed, Third Day,...or Nickelback; good GOD!
If you'd like to send something for us to listen to, contact Jeff Erickson at:
[email protected]
He can check out your myspace or website, and give you an idea if we'd need to see more.
