* Jay Gordon, frontman for Orgy, is somewhat of a mystery, according to interviewers. He likes to "keep things veiled", as he once stated, and it has been suggested that he shelters the band as much as possible to keep that mystery. As was said about him in the May 1999 issue of Alternative Press, " Mystery is important to Gordon. While the other members speak more readily about their personal lives, Gordon is more guarded in his responses".

Jay started to get into music when he was around 12 years old, and by the time he graduated, studied to become a sound engineer. It was his time in studios, co-producing acts like Coal Chamber, that got him introduced to many different music styles, and it was 80's bands like Depeche Mode and New Order and goth bands like Bauhaus and Sisters of Mercy that got his creative juices flowing. Although he is into industrial bands like Skinny Puppy, Nine Inch Nails and Ministry, its those 80's new wave and goth bands that are his first love. His background as a sound engineer also started one of his hobbies up; collecting drum machines.

On his music, Jay says "I think the general public is ready for new dimensions in music, especially the people in America... We don't want a computer on stage. We're a rock band with a singer, not a studio project."
