“The landscape Orcu tt Shelley Miller inhabits lies deep in the stoner American bedro ck, fed by volcanic riffage and hypnotic phrasing with rhythmic nods to th e SoCal ‘60s and atonal slash piled on a mid ‘80s SST pun k-fusionoid substrate, ultimately blasting a “big rock statement” that treads the line between good times and blown minds.” — Tom C arter (Charalambides)
