Ladies and Gentlemen. You can have a look at our Twisted Love Song video at:
http://www.hanoverpictures.co.uk
Yeah, I know we recorded it ages ago but the director chap likes the song so much he wanted to do a video...and who are we to argue. Unfortunately it can only be seen on the site quickplayer so is quite small at the moment. As soon as we get the DVD it'll be up proper.
The video for our next single Jesusphobia is being edited now and should be ready shortly. Apparently we turn into zombies in this one...a bit like I feel now after The Damned gig last night. Who said you live and learn...

Torpedoes have been added to the Misfest line up, june 20th in Blackpool. Next day we're off to Bristol to shoot the video (apparently where they film Casualty!....quite appropriate) for our next single. 'Jesusphobia' will be released in the next few weeks, just finalising the artwork now.

Back to the studio for the Torpedoes.

Currently working on 4 tracks, we are half way through the process. Laying down the 'meat and two veg', ready for the rest of the finishing touches to be laid down in December.

Thanks to Geoff at the DugOut for putting up with us!

Stay tuned for more news on the Single.

Something i never thought I'd see in my life happened this weekend. Portsmouth won the F.A cup.

As a lad I'd watch them play in the then division four against such footballing giants like Halifax Town and Scunthorpe.

So for them to be in Europe next year is unreal.

Well done to St. Harry and the lads.

PUP.

Ah, another Leipzig festival over for another year and so back to the world of reality TV, work, taxation and mediocrity.....

Made it very laid back this year with a Euro Rail Pass. So it was lunch in Paris, dinner in Saarbrucken and a few beers in Frankfurt before we finally reached the hallowed land.

Band of the weekend for me were Dragons (and they're British!). Dodgiest were Sigue Sigue Sputnik (oh, so are they). Best fight (Christian Death) and best discovery was the Kirschbeer (cherry beer...lovely).

So well done to Nic, Simes, Rupe, Chris, Steffi, Dave, Patricia, Rob and the other usuals who made it a great time.

See you next year. Razor.

Torpedoes have released a new Album 2 years in the making!

The Gong Show is a ten track Album featuring favorites Twisted Love Song, Liberty Bell, Straight Jacket and Paradise. It was recorded and mixed at the Dug Out Studio in Fareham by Geoff Webb (www.dugoutstudios.com). It is being distributed by Zip Records of San Francisco. The final artwork was rendered by Studio46. If you want to get a copy get in contact with us and we will send you one for a small price, otherwise come to a gig and we will flog you one there. Hopefully it will be distributed in the shops very soon, but until that day come on contact us!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Torpedoes have been nominated to play the Drop Dead Festival in Prague this year. It only takes a minute to register, so you can send me and Wolfie back to our spiritual home in the Czech Republic.

It will also stop me floundering around wondering whether to go or not. If we're playing I'll have to.

Have a look at the link below:
