Robinson agreed to a rare one-song „test recording“ last summer, which resulted in the song „Deflector“, released last fall. „I believe there was an unspoken learning curve between Ross?s methods and the understanding that I?ve poured myself into the words and mean every one of them,“ vocalist Jeremy Bolm says. Both Robinson and Touché Amoré are known for their trademark intensity. Through 11 songs, Touché Amoré looks back at its past and uses hard-won optimism to point its fans toward light, and love.įor the follow up to the their critically acclaimed 2016 release, Stage Four, Touché Amoré have opted to get out of their comfort zone and work with a new producer, the famously demanding Ross Robinson (Slipknot, Korn, At the Drive-In). After over a decade of working through darkness, the bands gorgeously gruff fifth album, Lament, finds the light at the end of the tunnel.

Hailing from Los Angeles, CA, Touche Amore set themselves against the glamour and greed of their hometown culture with ".To The Beat Of A Dead Horse," their passionate debut full-length, originally released in 2009.
