German death metal band TORCHURE was formed in 1985.
After 3 demo tapes they released two albums on the German metal label 1MF Records.
In 1992 they released one of the strongest German death metals albums ever: ‘Beyond The Veil’.
After the release of their debut TORCHURE toured Europe to support Sepultura and Pestilence.
After the tour founding members and brothers Andreas (guitars) and Thorsten (bass) Reissdorf died in a tragic car accident.
The band decided to go on and found 2 new members, again brothers.
With this partly new line up they recorded their second album ‘The Essence’.
The album was produced by S.L. Coe of Scanner / Angel Dust.

The re-issue comes with very special liner notes, rare pictures and 2 re-mastered never released bonus tracks.
This second TORCHURE album ‘The Essence’ has long been out of print (over 20 years) and is a much sought-after collector’s item.

Lyrics:
A loser since you were born
You surely think there's nobody to love you
Everything in your life goes wrong
Now you think their promises are true
"Do what thou wilt
Shall be the whole of the law" -
It may sound good to you
But it's not worth to strive for
All they preach and promise you plead for
Do everything you want without restraint
Take all you want to get, take more and more
There are no rules, you never will be chained
"There's no god but man"
But don't act like a god for yourself
Never it will be the right way
Behind these lies there's only hell
Sinister seduction - Can't you realize
They tempt you in this trap
To make their own might rise
Sinister seduction
They'll rise and you will fall
Don't follow them into the dark
Never sell your soul
Evade their influence, it's not too late
Don't let them obtain might over yourself
You have the chance to avert your fate
Choose path of life and not hell
