User Reviews: Vapor Transmission
Orgy rocks!
Orgy is 1 of the bands that is known by mainly every single country (except the countries that can't afford cds or cd player). I like how they used more techno based music than Candyass. I think every 1 who luvs rock should go out n buy Candyass & Vapor Transmission. This is 1 of their best cds!

I love this second LP! I thought that Candyass was good. This album is just as good, if not better! I still love them despite that this cd wasn't as popular as the last LP. The songs have a new wave of even more distant futuristic feel than the other earlier songs without losing the originality and personality of what they had done previously. With made up words and dreamed up stories, it's 'differently divine.' I have been a fan for almost four years and I am still not bored of them yet.

Not true. I love both albums equally. Orgy is very underrated.

I like how theve changed their sound. The only problem is that it sounds like Jay Gordans(Orgy vocalist), and Elijah Blues(chers son) side project, Deadsy(Listen to them, they kick ass!)
Was this review helpful? Yes - No"Faces" their new song
Their new song kicks ass, it's as cool as their first two albums but heavier. VT rulez

Computers have become an increasingly popular theme for pop-culture decorators in the last few years (i.e. The Matrix). On their sophomore album, Orgy have definitely taken this sci-fi image to new lengths - the CD is completely covered with the futuristic, man/machine hybrid pictures normally associated with pure techno and rave music. Aside from aesthetics, though, the album's content also fits well with the motif. The opening track is a computerized voice going through one of those "launch initiation" sequences in pretty much every movie ever made that involves a spaceship (except maybe Apollo 13), and their current radio single features a talking synthesizer saying "dreams in digital." The only way it could get more computerized than this would be to have R2D2 singing along.
The computers serve as more than just an image though; they are a metaphor for today's genetically homogenized, force-fed pop culture (I know, I always complain about other people telling me what metaphors really mean, but I'm just giving you my own impression here). The aforementioned single which launched this album is called "Fiction (Dreams In Digital)." If the title doesn't tell you anything, try lyrics like "your pixel army can't save you now." Of course, I can't say that one song makes a theme for the whole album, so here are some more examples: "you've been driven by your faceless personality" (from the song "The Odyssey"), "there's a time and a place we hide behind" ("107"), "can you find yourself with the bright lights flashing?" ("Where's Gerrold?"), "And we make this new religion to escape what we've become" ("Re-Creation"). The list goes on almost indefinitely. True, these words alone may not sound very computer-like, but it all fits into place perfectly when you're listening to the music. Synthesizers play a heavy role in the sound, sometimes as a sinister backdrop ("107"), sometimes pulling you through the heaviest of it all ("Fiction"). Songs like "Opticon" and "Dramatica," with their 80s drumbeats and keyboard sounds, give it all a pop feel, which in context seems more sarcastic than anything else.
The lambasting of pop culture isn't just limited to the computer metaphor. There is also derision of celebrities, the tactic used by many others for the same purpose (ironic, since many of those bands are the very ones being mocked). "Suckerface," probably the most direct of these assaults, is filled with lines like "raised by the queens your mother paid - so how does that make you a human god?", while "The Odyssey" is a little less direct with the line "your image is your invitation." Not as creative as the computer thing, but it works toward the same purpose.
The point is, Vapor Transmissions is a good CD. Wether you prefer to listen for the socially-conscious lyrics or the driving instrumental work, you should be well satisfied (unless you just don't like this kind of music, but that's a different story).Was this review helpful?

Orgy rules, no matter what unenlightened
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoSome of the worst
Orgy is garbage in the purest sense of the word. They are devoid of any form of talent, and rely on selling albums to people that think they can relate to the band's crappy image.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoOrgy rules!!!
Classic Orgy sound.....what more can i say.....
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoVery Good!
This is a extreamly good album! If you liked candyass, you will like this all the same. After about two times listening to it, every song grows on you, and it never gets old.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoThis is Jay from orgy and we dont suck.
Hey this is the lead singer of Orgy Jay. And i do not think we suck. And if you think differently then e-mail me @ BigDady134@yahoo.com or Orgy_j_man@yahoo.com.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoOrgy does in fact suck now
Candyass was amazing, they sound like crap now.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoAwesome.
This album is awesome. It is a progression for Orgy. Though it doesnt have the same industrial edge to it like that of Candyass, it does have many good beats and riffs. If your looking for something identical to Candyass, this isnt for you. But, if you would like to listen to a more upbeat-ish , synthesised metal, this is the album for you.
