About this event

Based in Lausanne, Switzerland, torpedo is a noise rock, post-proto punk,

industrial, and psychedelic trio which give itself over to creating a

contrasting and unleashed music, seeking the perfect mixture that will

metamorphose the leaden world into light and sulfurous gold. A slam on the

brakes to avoid hitting the walls and a skid on gravel, riding a shredded

bike at full speed.


The story began in 2016 with a psychedelic and alternative post-punk duo.

Carro Loubère (the howling lyre scratchers) and Jay Liseron (the bass

screed and diabolic rhythmics worker and scraper) have fun weaving songs

like webs around the stars and planets twinkling above the undulating sea.

A beautiful trip with drum machines.

The first Hammer arrived in 2017, followed by a recording session on the

European fringes of stormy Ireland, buffeted by winds and washed by ocean

waves, one February of 2018. The first LP, Sphynx, was released in 2019. A

post-punk and grunge album floating on harsh vocals and raw guitars,

around which the bass dances, accompanied by tireless and heady drums.

It was at this time, just before the album's release, that the second kicker

arrived: Drew Hammer! This was followed by the recording of a new album

entitled Orpheo_ Nebula in 2020. The tracks were recorded live in their

rehearsal space (not much choice at that time...), the band then worked

extensively in the studio to create a form of devastated opera made of

layers, collages, and experiments around six poems with sprawling

references spanning the ages.

Released in 2022, Orpheo_ Nebula received a warm reception from the

media, and the band completed two tours on the American West Coast. In

addition, two singles were released in the meantime, HOPE | DREAM in 2023

and La Mer Ondulée in 2024 - a 4-minutes excerpt from a much longer, yet

unreleased jam...

Today, the band is about to release a gut wrenching third album:

"What the Fucked Do We All Do Now? | - Lights," projecting us beyond the show,

into the rawness of real life, that of you and me in our kitchens, weeping

over a human world that has become unbearable for all the Living.

Toward the essential questioning we all have under our nose. Awaited

that. This album will be released once again on the Californian label

Broken Clover Records on June 21, 2025.
