Flower Orgy Blossoms into Greatness


Flower Orgy, despite having a mildly idiotic if apt name, are an actually quite excellent band that produce uber lo-fi acoustic/folk pop that matches their surroundings, the isolated and decrepit area in the United States know as the Northeast. They just put out their first release, a five track cassette on the Chocolate Bobka run The Curatorial Club. It reminds me a lot of the Taterbug tapes that Night People was putting out a while back, if Taterbug had concentrated on creating more cohesive songs instead of nature like soundscapes. Anyway, the band has put up the first side of the tape on their bandcamp page, showcasing the bare bones and raw nature of their sound, along with possibly one of the greatest covers of Exuma's "22nd Century" which they morph into 9 minute plus sprawl.
