It showed up as a b-side to the "Blue Monday" single (which I bought) and basically made me go "no matter what else this band does, they gave me this ferocious Thing I will treasure forever"

Stitches is great. Another time capsule song for me

the album is a little long in a 2001 kind of way but they nail this sound throughout and nothing strikes me as bad

i would cut "chasing sirens" but only for time, not bc it's a bad song
very obsessed with this record again lol, i gradually ended up rejecting it as a teen bc the lyrics came off to me as embarrassing cyberpunk nonsense... of course now i think that's fine and good

THIS song should've been a single
there was also an inherent queerness in orgy's presentation + the intermittent references in the music to gender and androgyny, which may have been a total put-on but i appreciate it anyway

I just realized that I think a lot about this album. Even though I haven't listened to it in years, the lyrics will pop into my head fairly regularly. Not sure what that says about me, but it definitely left an impression.
