Much Too Much Fun

by Time of Orchids

supported by

James Greene It's a little understated as far as ToO albums go, but every song has an identity and memorable parts. Kate Pierson is awesome here and fits the band really well. They're like pop songs that got cracked into little pieces and glued back together by someone who never heard the originals (or any pop music for that matter).

It's kind of stunning that this followed Melonwhisper, and perfect evidence of the incredible range this band had. Rest in peace Chuck <3 Favorite track: Same Exact.

Impatient listeners are weeded out in the opening 5 minutes, while those who persevere are treated to an unforgettable experience. This monster weaves an impossibly dense tapestry of sound with the replay value of a Final Fantasy. Scalding technical metal, rich chamber compositions and some trademark twists provide a great soundtrack to the lyrical concept. This seamless union between words and music creates a vivid and powerful narrative. Amongst the finest works of a one of a kind band. Entheogenesis
