Interview with Orgy

Published: April 13, 2021, 7:49 p.m.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Orgy over Zoom video!\xa0
Los Angeles-based industrial metal band Orgy is back with a brand new single \u201cKarma Kastles.\u201d The track marks the band\u2019s first release of 2021. Staying true to their musical roots firmly established in 1997, \u201cKarma Kastles\u201d crunching guitars, electronic undertones and soaring vocals are what fans have gravitated towards for nearly three decades.\xa0
\u201cI wrote \u2018Karma Kastles\u2019 about the madness people in LA face--when it comes to relationships (both romantic and bromantic),\u201d says Orgy\u2019s frontman Jay Gordon. \u201cThere are just so many options on both sides, it gets insanely difficult to keep up with the madness and treachery.\xa0 It's tough enough just trying to figure out who your \u2018real\u2019 friends are, let alone trying to date someone here. Things like geographical desirability and what kind of whip you drive, unfortunately play such bizarre roles in the typical LA relationship. We all build our own \u2018Karma Kastles\u2019 here in La La Land. Toxic and jaded with a twist of sex and a hint of scandal. Then we wake up like \u2018wtf was I even thinking!\u2019 You gotta love it, \u2018cause it builds character and makes you miss home, wherever you're from.\u201d
Orgy\u2014who is Jay Gordon (lead vocals), Carlton Bost (guitar, backing vocals), Nic Speck (bass, backing vocals), Creighton Emrick (guitar, backing vocals) and Marton Veress (drums)--recorded \u201cKarma Kastles\u201d between Gordon\u2019s North Hollywood studio and home during the pandemic.\xa0\xa0
\u201cKarma Kastles\u201d\xa0is the first single from a new Orgy EP which will arrive later this year.
