On this explosive episode of The Mixtape, we sit down with Jay Gordon, frontman of the iconic industrial rock band Orgy, to celebrate 25 years of their groundbreaking debut album Candyass. From the hypnotic cover of Blue Monday to the genre-bending sound that defined a generation, Jay reflects on the album’s legacy and why it still resonates with fans today.

We dive into Orgy’s brand new record deal, fresh material on the horizon, and what fans can expect from their upcoming Australian tour—a high-energy celebration of Candyass and beyond.

Jay also opens up about his early musical influences, the birth of the “death pop” sound, and the evolution of his artistry over the past two decades. And in our signature mixtape segment, Jay curates a playlist of tracks that shaped his style—from darkwave to nu-metal.

🎧 Plug in for a nostalgic, no-holds-barred ride through the past, present, and future of one of industrial rock’s most distinctive voices.
