Canadian hard rock force THE MIGHTY ONE have released their critically acclaimed album Torch Of Rock And Roll – and now that the torch is lit, the band around mastermind Tim Steinruck will of course continue to spread the light of the rock and roll fire.
The album’s title track tells the real life story of a boy who happened to fall in love with KISS, the dreams he had and the will to make them come true to a point of eventually signing a management/record deal with his idol Paul Stanley. It’s also a story about the moment when a fiery heart realizes that all the ill-fated things its owner has gone through have just been a matter of synchronicity rather than fate. A truly recognitial moment and the spark that lit his lifelong fire of purpose.
Torch Of Rock And Roll tells a very special, heartwarming and yet rocking story, a story that deserves an appropriate visualisation. That’s why the track is now released as a single – alongside a remarkable video. The anime-inspired animations in the elaborately produced clip are a rare and especially brightening sight within the hard rock genre. Check it out right here:
THE TORCH OF ROCK AND ROLL
When I was just 13
When rock and roll was king
That’s when I joined
The Kiss Army
Destroyer in my hand
The cover dark and glam
It a lit a flame inside of me
I wanna feel the lights
I wanna feel the flames
Oh yeah, burning burning oh
The Torch of Rock and Roll
Hold it high, heal your soul
I turned 24
Paul Stanley at my door
Record deal and dreams come true
But then the end did come
And Grunge was number one
The flame went dim
But stayed alive
And now I see the light
And now I feel the flames
Oh yeah, burning burning oh
CHORUS:
The Torch of Rock and Roll
Hold it high, heal your soul
Let the fire take control
The Torch of Rock and Roll
I’ll never stop until I die
(Keep it burning)
Don’t even ask the reasons why
(Keep it burning)
This fire deep inside
It’s what keeps me alive
I raise my torch up to the sky
