Song |
"Torn to Pieces" is the third single by American rock band Pop Evil from Onyx, the third studio album from the ensemble.
Background
The tune deals with the loss of lead vocalist Leigh Kakaty's father.[1] Per a social media initiative started by the band, fans were asked to submit photos representing what the tune meant to them.[2] Regarding the song, lead vocalist Leigh Kakaty states "There’s nothing more haunting & torturous to the human soul than the feeling of losing someone close to you without saying goodbye".
Critical reception
The Chattanooga Pulse states that the song is "destined for the type of hardwon ubiquity earned by “Last Man Standing,” “Monster You Made” and the Mick Mars collaboration “Boss's Daughter”".[3]
Music video
The video was directed by Swedish director Johan Carlen.
Chart performance
In a matter of just over a month, the song went from being No. 1 most added to No. 13 on Active Rock.[4]
