Time Of Orchids - Sarcast While
SKU
TZ 8013
This was written by me a long time ago, long before we worked together on their unbelievably great final album, Namesake Caution. But you can still see my enthusiasm, which would only get greater!
This is the fourth album by this NYC-based band. I heard their previous album and it was very good, but of lesser interest to the readers of this catalog, whereas this one hits closer to the spot, I think.
"Time of Orchids blurs the line between metal, classical and industrial with stunning technical prowess and this new CD is their most ambitious work to date—a powerful suite exploring complex harmonies and chaotic textures with remarkable intensity and ghostlike beauty.
Featuring the remarkable Julee Cruise from Twin Peaks on guest vocals, Sarcast While is an avant-rock masterpiece. Haunting synths, manic shrieks and jagged guitar/bass/drums interplay from a young band pioneering a complex and vibrant new rock sound."
