TOUCH THE SUN Featuring Former ANNIHILATOR Bassist RUSS BERGQUIST Post Audio Samples From Forthcoming Debut Album

DuskMachine / former Annihilator bassist Russ Bergquist recently resurfaced with a new band, Touch The Sun. According to a press release issued by the band, Touch The Sun is a Vancouver-based project that started two years ago with drummer Rob Wade, guitarist/vocalist Alex Roque, and guitarist Cam Jarvis writing an album's worth of material with the objective of releasing a full length album void of today’s commercial restrictions and formulas. During the recording process, Bergquist was brought in to record all the bass tracks and  complete the core of the line-up. 

The band has posted a sampler trailer for their debut album, Above Dark. Check out the music below. The band's previously released video for "Be My Enemy" is also available.

For updates go to the band's official Facebook page.

Bergquist was a part of the Annihilator line-up twice, from 1999 – 2003 and again from 2005 – 2007. In 2013, DuskMachine released their self-titled second album, which features three former Annihilator members: Bergquist, drummer Randy Black and vocalist Joe Comeau. The line-up is rounded out by guitarist Nikolai Wurk.
