“Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.” On this day The League of Assholes again honor labor and serve up the 5th installment of their unique blend of collaborative, third mind art punk music.

ORGY: actors, fiends, friends, pundits, pussies, fools, sodomites, pimps, dicks and clergy” is yet another fervent, chaotic, irreverent Hollywood Blockbuster about misery in poetry, full of violence and sex, humor and noise, anger and poise, intelligence, ignorance and sweet harmonious music of the future made in the past.
ca·coph·o·ny
/kəˈkäfənē/
noun: cacophony; plural noun: cacophonies
a harsh discordant mixture of sounds.
You in the middle of it.
ORGY follows the sound collage process and purging tradition of previous League of Assholes albums, featuring creative contributions by a host of brilliant usual suspects and inspired performances by new kindred spirits, good headphones and high volume are recommended. ORGY is available as a free download, courtesy of The League of Assholes and Titicacaman Records. Thanks for listening!
“Like children at a pond taking noontime breaks, staring at their distorted reflections on the water and laughing at how monstrous they can look, inspired by ripples, an undulating canvas paints their freakish countenance.”
Long inactive as a band the roots of The League of Assholes stretch back to the late 1990’s when a rotating breed of adventurous guitarists would gather to improvise dissonance. Disclaimer: The League of Assholes does not exist, there is no league and the participants in this work are not assholes.
