Torche will hit the road with the UK's Part Chimp for a string of East Coast dates, according to recent tweets by the band. Though the full tour routing has yet to be revealed, the dates will include an appearance at Mercury Lounge on November 9th with Dirty Fences, and tickets go on sale at noon on 9/16.

US audiences have had limited recording-interaction with noise rockers Part Chimp, who released the bulk of their output on Mogwai's Rock Action Records in the UK. The band will share a split 12" with touring partners Torche in the near future though, according to Part Chimp member Iain Hinchliffe. More details are forthcoming. For now check out some Part Chimp video below...

9:20- really? Your big response was basically "no, that what's you are"? Jesus...

And my (12:33) post was in response to an idiotic "sausage" post that is no longer there.

Then what's the point of putting down opinions at all if you don't think they matter? I'm pretty sure a comment section was put here for BV for a reason (despite the plethora of shit slinging).

However, if yours was in response to the "sausage" cliche, I'm in total agreement with you :)
