Revolver
has teamed with Light the Torch for an exclusive white vinyl variant of their new album You Will Be the Death of Me
Light the Torch the melodic-metal outfit led by ex-Killswitch Engage vocalist Howard Jones and featuring guitarist Francesco Artusato (ex-All Shall Perish) and bassist Ryan Wombacher (ex-Bleeding Through) are back with another epic single, More Than Dreaming. It s the second offering from their upcoming album,
You Will Be the Death of Me, (their second album since changing their name from Devil You Know) which is set to arrive on June 25th via Nuclear Blast.

I love starting the album with More Than Dreaming, Jones commented. It s got great energy and bounce to it exactly what you want as an opener.
