With their signature sound of lockstep rhythms and a deep understanding of soul and funk, Orgone has spent the last two decades earning a reputation as one of the tightest and fieriest live bands in the country and a top-notch crew in the studio. On their new album, Lost Knights, Orgone offers a collection of heavy psychedelic funk-rock anthems made to be played loud and roughThe album features lead vocal contributions from Orgone's ever-growing family of the West Coast's finest soulful singers - Terin Ector, Jamie Allensworth, Phil Diamond, with special appearances by Jesse Wagner (The Aggrolites) and Kelly Finnigan (Monophonics). This is the first time for the band that an album has been released with an all-male lineup, and the hard-hitting, punchy production underscores a work that is both "headbanging" infectious and eminently groovyOpener "Working for Love" kicks off with a crisp drum break and transitions into a heavy guitar and bass riff behind Ector's call to loving arms and an irresistible singalong chorus. The rest of the album thunders through timely songs about protest, brotherhood, unity, reverence and loss with Funkadelic-style guitars and a gloriously gritty Hammond organInstrumentals "Samson" and "Crusader" round out the album, highlighting Orgone's signature sound, which is sometimes classic and dusty, sometimes chunky, sometimes expansive, but always fully on point. "Lost Knights" is ultimately a fun record - an extension of a profound part of the band's DNA, their exploration of the cosmic haze between early Westbound catalog, '70s garage rock, skateboards and the muscular power of a metallic purple '68 Chevy Camaro.
