Touché Amoré Return with Andy Hull-assisted "Limelight" from Upcoming Ross Robinson-produced Album Lament (Epitaph Records)

Late last year, Los Angeles-based Punks Touché Amoré shared a mysterious new stand-alone single entitled "Deflector" in both physical and digital formats. It was a blood-churning chunk of three and a half-minute Post-hardcore/Screamo produced by Ross Robinson, whose credits include At The Drive-In, Glassjaw, Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Slipknot. "We need to take a chance with the unfamiliar. Someone who would take us out of our comfort zone. Enter: Ross Robinson, a man who knows no comfort zone. I followed his career all through my youth to being a young adult. When we returned from our recent Midwest tour, we entered the studio to record a song with Ross and see if there was chemistry," frontman Jeremy Bolm shared within a "Deflector"-era press release, at the time. Right around the same time, Touché Amoré released another non-Ross Robinson produced stand-along single, "Green," as well as a newly re-recorded version of 2009 debut full-length, ... To The Beat of A Dead Horse fittingly re-titled Dead Horse X.


Now, after releasing a couple projects with their outer-Touché Amoré side-projects, Hesitation Wounds & Entry, Jeremy Bolm, guitarists Nick Steinhardt & Clayton Stevens, bassist Tyler Kirby, and drummer Elliot Babin have returned once more with the announcement of their fifth studio album, Lament. Yes, you guessed it, Touché Amoré and mega-producer Ross Robinson didn't just record one song together... they recorded a whole d*mn 11-track behemoth of an album! Along with the announcement of Lament, Touché Amoré have shared the first official single from said album, "Limelight," featuring Andy Hull of Manchester Orchestra & Bad Books fame. "As the crescendo hits, Hull & Bolm are belting out on top of each other, Bolm shouts, "so let's embrace the twilight while burning out the limelight," the message of the song is revealed: the realization that the limelight may have held promise, but learning the obscurity of twilight is where you belong," explains a press statement. Touché Amoré's Lament is now available for pre-order in a number of different formats, via Epitaph Records, ahead of its October 9, 2020 wide release.
