Interview with Torrefy

Torrefy is a Victoria based thrash and party band that's been playing a tonne of shows since they started. They drink hard, play hard and always seem to be looking for more parties, shows and friends. They are currently finishing up a new album and contemplating space travel, here are some of their thoughts.


MC:   When do you feel you turned into a band?    

T: Our vocalist joined the band in 2011, and we played our first house party with the full line-up on New Years Eve. We've always had the same 5 members.
                                                                   
MC:  How far would you be willing to travel to play a show?      

T:  Space

MC:  Who would win in a fight, A drunk octopus or a raccoon with experience in Iraq?    

T:  3 out of 5 members of Torrefy agree that 9 times out of 10 a raccoon will eviscerate a wasted invertebrate. 1 time out of 10 the fight is aquatic. 2 of 5 members are undecided.  

MC:  Would you take $100,000 if you had to be only in a Billy Talent cover band to get it?      

T:   We'd far rather be poor and in Torrefy…or fight a raccoon with experience in Iraq.

MC:  Favorite story from a local show?

T:  A couple years ago at a house show the cops arrived to break it up. They wound up --letting us finish our set because they were diggin' the tunes!

(*additional answers for a couple initial interview questions)
A few tracks have been released off our upcoming debut album Thrash and Burn, and are available on our Bandcamp page.

We just played our first show outside of Victoria at The Cambie in Nanaimo. It was fucking awesome to travel and recruit some new torrefans!
