Digipack. TORCHIA means the True Heavy Metal of Death! It is grim fantasy and blazing metal arising from the inner darkness of composer and lyricist Ville Riitamaa. The band was named after a fictive occult author Aristide TORCHIA, introduced in the novel 'The Club Dumas' by Arturo P?rez-Reverte and its film adaptation 'The Ninth Gate'. TORCHIA takes inspiration from a multitude of metal subgenres and their mission is to revitalize the genre of melodic death metal by bringing in a sense of danger and unpredictability. TORCHIA strives for the timeless sound of classic metal records by straying away from the prevailing trends and soulless productions styles of contemporary metal, but neither they are about nostalgia or redundant old-school worship. TORCHIA is a testament to all those who love metal music in its purest forms! The Coven is all about guitar riffs and solos, relentless drumming and ripping vocals. The album was once again produced by one of Finland's top producers, Hiili Hiilesmaa, who has worked on classic records from HIM, Amorphis, Ensiferum and many others.
