Torba - New single 'LIES' out now - Taken from debut album 'II", out 10 January 2025
Darkwave producer Torba will release his debut album 'II' on 10th January 2025 via numeronove.
Torba’s music’s urgency comes through on the new single ‘LIES’, a propulsive track built on sour synths and frenetic production. The song morphs into a distorted blast of guitar in its second half.

'LIES' video is the last of a trilogy directed by Jacopo Dall’Agnol, who explains: "Using artificial intelligence, we have animated disturbing culinary visions. Similar to scenes from the iconic 'Goosebumps' series, our dishes come to life, transform into human-like figures, and nervously sing words they are not conscious of. The selection of dishes and the visual style are influenced by retro cookbooks and television commercials from the '80s and '90s, enhancing the viewer's immersion into Torba's unsettling environments."

The new single comes after the previously released 'WIRE', a dark inversion of a dance tune, in its blown-out kick, wailing feedback and crushed percussion. and 'PUNTO', a track which balances live performance, brutish drum programming, and surprising lyrics.
The Italy-based producer (aka Luigi Pianezzola) and The Soft Moon touring musician makes stark electronic tracks that pull from punk, industrial and club music while retaining a modern grit of his own and creating a distinct and destructive sound.
The forthcoming debut album follows a self-titled EP released in late 2023, where Pianezzola discovered his signature approach with the help of producer Maurizio Baggio (The Soft Moon, Boy Harsher). The pair continue their partnership on this new record, which was written fully by Pianezzola outside of the song ‘DARE’, co-produced by Riccardo Menin (A.K.A. Cantona from the band Mont Baud) and Edoardo Pellizzari of Overdrive Studio.
