Invisible Orange was a musical concept inspired by Black Lamb and other heavy hitters in the Denver stoner rock community. Singer Donovan Breazeale
shopped around the idea for the band for several years trying out many known Denver musicians to no avail. After finding founding members Bruce Morgan & Adrian Moore of Autopsy Commission along with our friend Wade the Invisibles were on their way. After a few months of writing and practice our friend Wade fell to the way side. So the hunt was on for a new drummer and so enter Jason Brown. Invisible Orange played many shows and recorded their fist E.P. Valium.
Due to creative differences Bruce Morgan left only a few months into writing for the next album in titled Iron Mountain. The search was on to fill the big shoes of Morgan, enter Jason O. James. After James's first show with the Invisibles at the famed Denver Stone Henge, the writing resumed full force for Iron Mountain. A few weeks into practice with James the band finally jelled and were writing songs almost daily. So into the studio they went. After a couple of months into recording and nearing the zenith of their climb for musical perfection,
a second wind of inspiration blew into the house of Orange. Now on their second trip to the studio of Overload..........................stay tuned. And a year and a half later on a Sunday afternoon 10/19/08 everything came to ahead. All the hard work that almost took 2 and a half years of recording, rerecording, mixing, mixing, adding, and so on and so on.....we picked up our printed cd's, what a fucking relief.Westword review December 21 2006: Invisible Orange, Valium (Mourning Star Records). The racket made by guitarist Adrian Moore, bassist Bruce Morgan, drummer Jason Brown and singer Donovan Breazeale is every bit as addictive as the medication celebrated in the title of their latest disc. The leviathan guitar patterns and gloriously plodding rhythms of "Sideways," "Black Rail" and the rest are a perfect prescription for stoner-rock junkies. -- Roberts. Westword review of Valium April 27 2006: In the hard-rock world, "invisible orange" is a term used to describe the claw-like hand gestures that trendsetters currently prefer to devil horns, which are now so commonplace they've lost much of their demonic power. That means members of the band called Invisible Orange would like listeners to throw invisible oranges at them -- and their music is strong enough to deserve it.
Singer Donovan Breazeale, bassist Bruce Morgan, drummer Jason Brown and guitarist Adrian Moore are well-schooled in stoner verities. "Sideways," for example, is a virtual compendium of roiling riffs, thudding grooves and passionate wailing, while "Supreme Design" manages the neat trick of seeming up-tempo and deliberate at the same time. As for "Black Rail," the Invisibles pound the body for over eight minutes rather than going for the knockout punch, and wind up winning by decision.For heavy-music fans who like it long and slow, here's some advice: Take Valium.
