LP -Orange Vinyl

It’s not hyperbole to state that Touch Amor’s third album Is Survived By is the band’s most pivotal album. Released a decade ago on September 24th, 2013, via Deathwish Inc., Is Survived By delves into the complex nature of leaving a lasting legacy and the uncertainties that accompany it. Ultimately, it becomes a record about discovering validation and love within oneself.

Produced by the legendary Brad Wood (Sunny Day Real Estate, Liz Phair, mewithoutYou), the recording sessions marked a significant period of growth for the Los Angeles quintet – vocalist Jeremy Bolm, guitarists Nick Steinhardt and Clayton Stevens, bassist Tyler Kirby, and drummer Elliot Babin. The band evolved from individuals playing hardcore songs to the established headlining act that Touch Amor is today.

Is Survived By garnered critical acclaim from reputable sources like Pitchfork, The A.V. Club, The Needle Drop, and more, earning the distinction of being the 13th highest-rated album of 2013 per Metacritic. Moreover, it marked the band’s first record to chart on the U.S. Billboard 200, peaking at 85. However, beyond the critical acclaim and chart success, Is Survived By holds a special place in the hearts of both new and longtime fans of Touch Amor.
