		‘Orblivion’ is the fifth album from the godfathers of the chill out LP, the Orb.
		Not as overtly obnoxious as ‘Pomme Fritz’ nor as plodding as ‘Orbus Terrarum’, ‘Orblivion’ is a more like a return to the days of ‘Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld’ where the experimentation, while broad and deep, never overpowers the melodies and rhythms.
		Throw in some percussive jungle-type tracks such as “Delta MK II,” “Asylum” and the obligatory sampled-fueled rant of “S.A.L.T.” and ‘Orblivion’ quickly shapes up to be one of the best (and most accessible) productions in the Orb’s extraordinary catalog.

	Orblivion - The Orb - Music Reviews
		If the Orb's 1995 release Orbvs Terrarum was an extended meditation on the earthbound, the band's follow-up in Orblivion rises from the muck of primordial ectoplasm for a guided tour of late-20th century Western culture's more paranoid face.
		The ubiquitous bar code!"), Orblivion does for post-industrial, turn-of-the-century mania what earlier albums such as The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld and U.F.Orb did for aliens and flying saucers.
		Like the previous record -- an effusive mix of sprawling environmental textures; clanging, treated percussion; and humorous, trainspottery samples -- Orblivion brings with it another adjustment in mood, combining elements of downbeat, electro, and drum'n'bass with dense, soupy amalgams of treated electronics and shimmering rhythms.

	Orblivion - The Orb, Music Downloads - Online
		Review: If the Orb's 1995 release Orbvs Terrarum was an extended meditation on the earthbound, the band's follow-up in Orblivion rises from the muck of primordial ectoplasm for a guided tour of late-20th century Western culture's more paranoid face.
		Orblivion also evidences a renewed interest in the more immediately engaging, upbeat pop of "Perpetual Dawn"- and "Little Fluffy Clouds"-era Orb, with a deeper, more embellished sound marked, in all likelihood, by the first full-time contributions from former engineer Andy Hughes (who replaced Kris Weston after the latter's departure in 1994).
		Dub is still the organizing principle of the Orb's music, however, and whatever one's opinion of the actual album (reactions are likely to range from "genius" to "aimless") the production is undeniably amazing.

	Orb: "Orblivion"
		I love their work, its just that the majority of humanity tends only to have an attention span that lasts long enough to catch the hook of a 2:30 pop song.
		By far the most accessable Orb album to date, Orblivion is a streamlined, modern version of the Orb built to appeal to the masses.
		The great thing is that anyone turned on to the Orb through Orblivion won't be dissapointed by their older material.

	Cydonia: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more \|\|\| Music.com
		Much of Cydonia (the title is a reference to a region of Mars where astronauts reportedly found evidence of ancient civilization) aligns to the slightly spacey, slightly noisy dub heard on Orblivion and 1995's Orbus Terrarum.
		Thankfully, the album also has the exquisite pacing and smooth transitions of the classic Orblivion -- a spritely Indian dub piece ("Promis") leads naturally into the lazy-day ambience of "Ghostdancing" and on into "Turn It Down," a paranoid production with the conspiracy-theory airs of earlier Orb work.
		Also, the trademarked Orb sense of humor is in full effect on "Egnable," wherein an English-as-a-second-language instructor grows more and more confused (and incoherent) over carnival-music backing.

		i gave orblivion a quick spin last night and i couldn't believe how bad that release really is. toxygene and the hidden track are by far the best off that release.
		I finally bought Orblivion a few weeks ago, and although I'd heard some people say it was wonderful, or their favorite, I have to admit that I was sorely disappointed.
		I think orblivion is sooo much stronger musically than the older albums...when you listen to them, they're all just sample collage...of course, amazingly done but lfc for example, when you take away reich & the cloud sample...not much left.

	A&E April 3, 1997 -- music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-17)
		The Orb, a group known for optimistic, meditative ambiance, is the latest (and so far, among the best) to unearth a large chunk of New Testament fear with Orblivion, a work that flips the coming millennium on its dark side and makes it sound enticing.
		Ironically, what makes Orblivion so alluringly morbid is the Orb's reluctance to evolve past their niche.
		Suddenly, the Orb's transcendental wanderings are tinged with darkness and fear.

		As far as I'm concerned, anything the Orb puts out is great.
		Orblivion is good listenin' in pretty much any situation: in the car, while working, while reading, and while chilling.
		It's shallow enough to be background music, but engaging enough (remember the texture I mentioned earlier?) to warrant your full attention when you want it to.

	Amazon.com: Orblivion: Music: The Orb (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-17)
		This album is not only a good introduction to The Orb, but also a good introduction to a more intelligent form of electronic music, especially for those who are tired of more cliche-based genres.
		Orblivion -does- get somewhat tiring and monotonous in theme and style by the 8th track, but you get used to it.
		Some people criticize this album for not being like "the old Orb we used to know", but listening closely to both Orblivion and OABTUW side-by-side, you can tell Dr. Patterson put more love, devotion, and creative output into Orblivion.

		The Orb are the rave scene's resident gods of ambient psychedelia.
		ORBLIVION's beats don't so much swing with techno's hyperkinetic verve as they imply that swing through their extreme, dubbed-out feel.
		At times a spaced-out bassline serves as more of a grounding factor than the dissolved backbeat.

	Rolling Stone : The Orb: Orblivion : Music Reviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-17)
		Of course, after creating the mold, the enigmatic Patterson shattered it, venturing further afield by creating two experimental records full of frazzled noises and arrhythmic beats (Pomme Fritz and Orbvs Terrarvm) that alienated many of the group's fans.
		Now the Orb have returned with Orblivion, which harks back to the linear constructs of the group's early material while retaining the anarchic sound effects and humor of their later stuff.
		The Orb may still be off on their own world somewhere, but they're closer to Earth than they've been in years – close enough, perhaps, to begin setting suns and starting fires alongside their electronic offspring.

		Returning from the sparse Pomme Fritz and Orbus Terrarum, Alex Patterson and his crew serve up Orblivion, the most realized Orb release since the launch of their landmark U.F.Orb.
		Over dub bass and layered ambience, hooky synth parts weave in and out, building up to one of the danciest tracks on Orblivion.
		Showcasing Patterson and Hughes' talents, Orblivion weaves a dubby masterpiece that's sure to please old Orb fans and attract new ones.

		Feel free to sit back, relax and space out again: The Orb have returned.
		The land of chill-out music has lain fallow since 1997, the year the most recent Orb album, Orblivion, was released.
		And that, arguably, wasn't even an "ambient" album, at least in the conventional Orb sense.

	The Orb: Orblivion<>
		Paterson split with Thrash and Island records after the Orb Live 93 album, and The Orb briefly drifted towards obscurity as ambient house fell from fashion, only to rebound with 1997's successful Orblivion.
		After the largely beatless and somewhat tiresome Pomme Fritz and Orbus Terrarum, the Orb rescued themselves from their ambient self-indulgence with Orblivion.
		The Orb is back, and as irreverent, dubby and virtuosic as ever!

		The Orb are currently front man Dr Alex Paterson, Thomas Fehlmann and Andy Hughes, although since their first ambient tweaks and splashes in the late 80's many faces have past through the towers of dub, including Jimmy Cauty, Youth, Steve Hillage & Miquette Giraudy (aka System 7) and Kris 'Thrash' Weston.
		What and however, things went a little pair shaped for a while.
		But, after nearly three years of silence, '97 saw the Orb return in style with their album Orblivion and single Toxygene.

		Paterson may be involved in numerous side projects, but he hasn't given up working on Cydonia, though the album sits unattended in the Seagram-Universal cupboard.
		After the lukewarm reception for 1997's Orblivion, Paterson decided to reconsider the Orb's lack of vocal material.
		The result: the Orb recorded four new tracks with London-based vocalists Aki Amore and Nina Walsh.
