Long regarded as one of the hidden treasures of the Mexican underground, Antorcha forged a unique blend of heavy rock, psychedelia and proto-metal during the first half of the 1970s. Drawing inspiration from Black Sabbath, Blue Cheer, Iron Butterfly and Vanilla Fudge while sharing the raw energy and rebellious spirit of the MC5, the band created a powerful sound that stood apart from anything else happening in Latin America at the time.

"Music To Set Everything On Fire" gathers the finest recordings from Antorcha's rare self-released singles, originally issued between 1971 and 1976, alongside previously uncollected material. Massive fuzz guitars, pounding rhythms and passionate vocals combine to form an explosive document of a band that deserves far wider recognition among heavy rock collectors.

Presented as a double LP with an informative insert featuring liner notes by Carlos Icaza "Tropicaza" and rare photographs, this is the definitive introduction to one of Mexico's most exciting underground rock bands. Essential for fans of hard psychedelic rock, proto-metal and obscure heavy '70s discoveries.
