What do you get when you mix the fury of California’s Punch with the uncompromising vegan hardcore of Italy’s Holy? The answer is Tørsö—a fast, unrelenting vegan straight edge (XVX) powerhouse born out of the Holy/Punch US tour in 2013. Spanning members from Italy, Philly, and California, this band isn’t just a side project but a relentless statement wrapped in blistering hardcore.

Their debut EP, Community Psychosis, delivers five tracks of pure, furious power. It’s a pummeling assault of crushing riffs, bone-shaking drums, and vocals dripping with venomous critiques of society and the mindless trap of mass culture. From start to finish, the EP doesn’t let up, pushing forward with the kind of no-frills, fast hardcore that punches you in the gut and leaves you reeling.

The physical release is set for June, and with a European tour on the horizon, Tørsö promises to be one of the year’s most exciting bands to catch live. For fans of blistering, socially aware hardcore, Community Psychosis is a must.
