GREAT AMERICAN GHOST directs old-school hardcore wrath at hypocrisy, apathy, and self-loathing, delivered in a dark cloud of relentlessly bludgeoning riffs. The Boston hardcore tradition includes seminal pioneers like Gang Green, SSD, and DYS.

Torture World tackles several issues with urgency and passion, not the least of which is the struggle for equality and the resulting social unrest magnified in recent years. "As a white cisgender male, I'm not in a position to say that I am oppressed. It's not my story to tell," Harrison cautions. "But I have a huge problem with the disparity that occurs inside of this civilization that we occupy."

The band returned to producer Will Putney (A Day To Remember, Knocked Loose, The Amity Affliction) to put together Torture World. The group described by Kerrang! as "an exercise in old-school extremity" and one of the 50 Greatest American Hardcore Bands Right Now took things up a notch, somehow managing to rival and even top prior Great American Ghost anthems like "Prison of Hate," "Ann Arbor (Be Safe)," and "No Savior."
