    By their own admission, there was a time when it didn’t seem likely Torus would be standing here at all to introduce their debut album to the world. That in itself is a surprising opening statement to tumble from the mouth of frontman and band mastermind Alfie Glass as he and his bandmates sit in the front room of his home outside Milton Keynes. Torus’s every move to date has been met with intrigue and acclaim – ahead of critically-lauded debut EP ‘Sail’, key tastemakers in the shape of Kerrang! and Classic Rock were championing their “brand of zero-bullshit hard rock” that delivers “gargantuan riffs and thick, monstrous grooves” in the vein of rock greats such as Kyuss, Queens Of The Stone Age and Smashing Pumpkins. Indeed, if the name Alfie Glass sounds even more familiar to you, it’s probably because Black Sabbath guitar legend Tony Iommi was praising the six-stringer’s chops on TV talent show Guitar Star when Glass was just 12 years old. Having started life as a one-man bedroom project, Torus’ lineup would soon be completed by bassist Harry Quinn in 2020 and, latterly, drummer Jack Orr in early 2022, the trio coalescing around a shared desire to create music that could bang heads while moving feet, despite their differing musical backgrounds and influences that touch on everything from desert rock, to psychedelic prog and punk. “We all come from different places, but have a shared vision for the music we want to write,” Orr nods.
