THE ORCHIDS - Lyceum (Reissue) TIAMAT Rising out of Baltimore’s groundbreaking2LP Black Vinyl (2025 Reissue) And in the words of Saint Etienne's Bob Stanley (Melody Maker, 1989): 'Lyceum' is a fountainhead of unqualified greatness. Its a strange, sad sound harking back to old school tunesmanship Aztec Camera, Rattlesnakes, prime time Felt but the whole affair is permeated with a resonant, almost tearful quality. Lyceum is reminiscent of Galaxie 500s Today in that it sounds like it cost less than a round of drinks to produce.
