LOST KNIGHTS (RED VINYL)

With a signature sound signified by lockstep rhythms & a deep grasp of
soul and funk, Orgone has built a reputation over the past 2 decades as
being one of the tightest, fieriest live bands in the country & a top notch
crew in the studio. On their new album Lost Knights, Orgone offer up a
collection of heavy-duty psychedelic funk-rock anthems created to be
played loud and raucously.
The release features lead vocal contributions from Orgone's ever
expanding extended family of some the finest soulful singers on the West
Coast - Terin Ector, Jamie Allensworth, Phil Diamond, with special
appearances from Jesse Wagner (The Aggrolites) and Kelly Finnigan
(Monophonics). A first of sorts, for the band, in featuring an all male
fronted lineup on an album.The tough, punchy, & hard hitting production
highlights a body of work both "head banging"-ly satisfying and eminently
groovy. Opener "Working for Love" rolls out the gate with a crunchy drum
break and slams into a heavy guitar and bass riff behind Ector's call to
loving arms & irresistible singalong chorus. The rest of the album
thunders on with Funkadelic-style guitar and gloriously gritty hammond
organ percolating through timely songs of protest, brotherhood, unity,
reverence & loss. Instrumentals "Samson" and "Crusader" round out the
record, highlighting the trademark Orgone sound; instantly classic &
dusty, at times chunky, at times sprawling; always on point.
Lost Knights is ultimately a fun record- an expansion of a profound part of
the band's DNA, their exploration of the cosmic haze between early
Westbound catalog, 70s garage rock, skateboards, & the muscular power
of a metallic crimson '68 Chevy Camaro. With racing stripes..
