The Orchids - thaumaturgy

The last Orchids single for Sarah Records was this, though i seem to recall they did release an album after it. That marked the end of The Orchids of course, some of my interest in indie pop died too... But lo, they returned in 2005 as did my love for indie pop!

So what is this like? A sweet acoustic beginning taking you into a beautiful soundscape dripping with great pop moments. It carries out at a good pace, guitar work razor sharp but gentle and an ending which disappears into an electronic echo fest. More creativity in 4 minutes than most bands or artists could hope for in a career.
