Flashback Friday with Torches To Rome


photo from here.

Torches To Rome. Amazing LP. I wish they’d released more. Good to listen to all weekend. I love everything Mike Kirsch touches I guess (Please Inform the Captain This is a Hijack, Baader Brains, Bread and Circuits, Sawhorse, Fuel, Sixteen Bullets, Navio Forge, Colbom,  John Henry West, and anything I might have missed)

“Mike Kirsch started Torches To Rome who were around in 1995-1996 in the Bay Area with the help of Steve Chamberlain, and Aaron Schlive. Mike was once again on guitar and vocals, Steve played bass and sang, and Aaron was on drums. Aaron had formerly been drumming for Portraits of Past, and his style was hard and loud.”
