THE ORNE

Orne plays dark progressive rock in the vein of Van der Graaf Generator, Black Widow, King Crimson, Gabriel-era Genesis, Pink Floyd. The first album, "The Conjuration by the Fire" came coming out from Italian label Black Widow Records in 2006. The follow-up "The Tree of Life" should be released by the same label by mid-January 2011. Meanwhile, there is a split available with Orne and John Gallo's Blizaro from Rochester, NY. Get it via Svart Records.
A few words to end all words, from the crypt, located somewhere in Albion:
"I'm often asked to perform on many artists’ albums (far too many for me to be able to please everyone). A few months ago I received a request by the group ORNE to appear on their debut album, unfortunately this is not possible due to previous commitments.



Upon listening to their pre-production demo I was struck by the wonderful songs and beautiful melodies that came floating to my ears. In many ways they reminded me of my early days with BLACK WIDOW.



I feel that "The Conjuration by the Fire" will be a classic debut album and one that will be played for many years to come. I hope to be asked to play on future releases it will be an honour to play with such talented musicians.



I wish Kimi and the group every success.



- Clive Jones (Black Widow / Agony Bag), 2006"
