Frogtoon Music Album Info: The Killion Floor

Their Music Is Terrifically Unfussy Big Slabs Of Grizzled R&B Greasy As Fatback And Thick As A Very Particular Kind Of Smoke. At Their Best They Recall The Majesty Of Sly & The Family Stone Opening Track “Who Knows Who” Is All Bleary Horns And Broken-Heart Vocals “It’s What You Do” Is A Tight Itchy Jam. There’s Still A Riot Goin’ On And Orgone Is At The Front Of The Crowd.”
- EMusic A Monstrous Debut From One Of The Heaviest Acts We've Heard In Years -- LA's Orgone Easily One Of The Most Up-And-Coming Funky Combos Around! Although Orgone Share A Bit With Some Of The Leaner Deep Funk Groups Who've Cropped Up In The Past Decade Or So They've Also Got A Sound That's A Bit More Advanced Overall -- Sort Of That Second-Generation Approach To Funk That Hit The Scene By The Mid 70s As Some Of The Bigger Funk Acts Like Black Heat Or War Moved Out Of The Indie Scene And Really Started To Hit A Wider Audience! That Doesn't Mean That Orgone's Commercial At All -- Because They've Got A Sound That's Still As Sharp-Edged As Any Smaller Group -- But With A Lineup That's Quite Large They're Able To Encompass A Very Wide Range Of Soulful Styles -- Gritty 45 Riffing Slinky Chicano-Styled Grooves Afro Funk Tighter Soul Tracks And Lots Lots More -- All Carried Off With Perfection Throughout. The Album Feels Like Some Lost Masterpiece On Fantasy Or Possibly Some Overlooked Early 70s Major Label Funk Set On WEA Or United Artists -- And Titles Include "Who Knows Who" "I Get Lifted" "Funky Nassau" "Lone Ranger" "Prism Break" "Crabby Ali" "Duck & Cover" "Dialed Up" "Said & Done" "Hambone" "It's What You Do" "Do Your Thing" And "Sophisticated Honky". - 1996-2009 Dusty Groove America Inc. "L.A.’s Orgone Keeps The Hotness Of The Recent Retro-Soul Revival Coming Lead Singer Fanny Franklin Fits In Very Nicely Between Sharon Jones And Amy Winehouse. As Befits The Band’s Name Orgone’s Sound Is Quite Organic Rooted In Soul Funk Boogaloo And Jazz With A Classic Appeal That’s Nevertheless Contemporary...The Entire Album Is One Non-Stop Groove. If Smooth Soulful Funk With Jazzy Arrangements Makes You Sweat You Just Found Your New Favorite Band." - XLR8R "By The Time The Listener Gets To The Nasty Distorted Finger-Popping Ass Waggling "Crabby Ali" -- Where The Deep Brewed Second-Line New Orleans Old-School Funk Goes Head To Head With The Gloss Of L.A.'s Tower Of Power Styled Horn Charts -- It Feels Like The Party's Just Getting Started."
- All Music "Orgone Recalls Acts Like Fela Kuti Trouble Funk And War But With A Heavy Dose Of Disco As On Killion's "Dialed Up " Where The Deep Groove And Diva Vocals Are So Authentic They Could Be Samples."
- The Onion / A.V. Club "Their Music Is Terrifically Unfussy Big Slabs Of Grizzled R&B Greasy As Fatback And Thick As A Very Particular Kind Of Smoke. At Their Best They Recall The Majesty Of Sly & The Family Stone Opening Track "Who Knows Who" Is All Bleary Horns And Broken-Heart Vocals "It's What You Do" Is A Tight Itchy Jam. There's Still A Riot Goin' On And Orgone Is At The Front Of The Crowd."
- EMusic "It’s Easy To Imagine The Killion Floor Both Igniting Mass Partying And Stoking Libidos For More Intimate Gatherings."
- OC Weekly "Orgone Has Provided All The Elemental Power To Drive The Funk/soul Revival To New Levels With The Killion Floor...Orgone Will Invigorate Your Groove Spirit And Get Booty Out Of Its Little Box And Out On The Dancefloor."
