    Gotta admit, I bough the album just for the amazing cover art. The music itself left me wanting more... songs are kinda half-baked. There is just a couple of true great tracks, like Animated violence and Keys to the Castle. There is also songs I just can't stand and automatically skip, like Static God and Cooling tower. Overall it's a fine listening, but pretty average album I think...

    Thoroughly anti-social and wonderfully obnoxious throughout, this is kick-arse psych’n’roll as it should be.

    Orc is a continuation of the careening energy and creativity that has defined the most recent handful of Oh Sees' record, making it one of the most beastly in the bunch. [No. 146, p.59]

    Orc is another immensely satisfying offering from one of underground rock’s modern heroes.
