Orchid released their first album, Chaos Is Me, in 1999 followed by their second album, Dance Tonight! Revolution Tomorrow! in 2000. Their third studio album, Gatefold, was released in July 2002. Later in the same year, in September, Orchid released a compilation of both their first and second albums on CD, containing all 21 tracks from both. However, after the release of both of these albums, the band split up. In 2005, a compilation album titled Totality was released posthumously. It comprised 24 tracks, featuring out-of-press and hard-to-find B-side and split EP materials that were previously only available on vinyl.[2] On December 5, 2023, the band announced their first shows in over 20 years.[3]
