Torche @ Three Kings Tavern, Denver CO, 2019-06-15

 

The Goodwin brothers, Michael & Shaun, put on a super rad music festival in Denver for 4 years called Electric Funeral Fest as Dust Presents.  They brought so many amazing underground heavy rock bands to  Denver for these.  That was on top of the band they played in The Munsens and their jobs.

I loved these shows and would plan my whole weekend around them.  At first they were just at Three Kings Tavern but expanded to include Hi Dive and Mutiny Information Cafe as venues.  Walking distance from my house and clubs full of homies made it easy for me to setup and record the shows too.  One year I captured every single one of the 30+ bands that played.  It was a marathon but so fun.

Last year they decided to call off plans for a 2020 fest due to a variety of  reasons that didn't include a global pandemic at the time.  I wouldn't be surprised to see it return in some form someday.

Michael took a ton of photos at these and other shows and has put out several photo zines called 'Ritual Of Sin' and has a new one going to print called 'The City Gasped'.  Check them out here.

Shaun in the meantime has started a hot sauce company called Sauce Leopard that is kicking some ass and making a very delicious variety of sauces.  I really dig the tropical habanero and the red fresno pepper sauce.  Check those out here.   Sauce Leopard

While your clicking on links go check out their heavy rock band The Munsens  and Shaun's other band Love Gang on band camp.

Now onto the show post.  Today it is Torche's set from the 2019 Electric Funeral Fest.  These Florida heavy rockers treated Denver to a deep tracks set with songs from their new album that hadn't come out at the time and older stuff like Tarpit Carnivore.

This turned out really nice I think.  Vocal are a bit low but nice room sound and very little crowd noise.  They also sing Happy Birthday to a friend of theirs which is funny since I posted a Blood Incantation show not too long ago where they do the same.  Enjoy.
