Sarcast While and Namesake Caution are the best albums I've heard in my entire lifetime. I don't know any other band that could possibly be better than Time of Orchids. Even though, they split-up, the legend of this band lives on...

New Time of Orchids album, In Due Time: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/in-due-time/id385794227 A collection of previously unheard tracks, spanning ToO's career, from its oddball goth-pop beginnings to its dry, sprawling final sound. The album features members Chuck Stern, Jesse Krakow, Eric Fitzgerald, Dave Bodie, Keith Abrams and Charlie Looker. It concludes with a series of remixes (many by Wendell Edwards, who also mastered the album). For credits and album notes, visit: http://www.myspace.com/timeoforchids.
