Orgy might be new to you, but they're hardly new.Sure, the band's first live gigs ever came just last year on the Family Values tour, and sure the band's first video recently landed in MTV's buzz bin, but the men of Orgy are not new to the music biz. The members of Orgy have been plying their trade for years behind the scenes, co-writing songs with Korn and producing albums for the likes of Coal Chamber (who recorded "Amir of the Desert" for Orgy guitarist Amir Derakh).What is new is the group's unique music hybrid, fusing the drive of metal with the sleek, futuristic flourishes of new wave and techno-dance. The band's debut album, "Candyass" (the first release from Korn's Elementree Records), prompted one critic to call them "Duran Duran on an acid trip," and their live show prompted another to call them "the Cure on coke."MTV News' Robert Mancini recently caught up with frontman Jay Gordon and guitarists Ryan Shuck and Derakh to found out what else is new with Orgy. What he found were declarations of love for their future tourmates Love And Rockets, tales of dressing room rampages with past tourmates Rammstein, and why all along they knew that Orgy would be a good idea.You can peruse those thoughts, and many more, right here in our MTV News Online feature, which also features a RealVideo package that captures the sights and sounds of Orgy.Enjoy...
Don't miss MTV's "Return Of The Rock" weekend!
