This 2009 album revisits and re-records tracks from the Marc and the Mambas era, finding Almond's voice in typically dramatic form.
- The album was released on Legacy Music in 2009. It was primarily recorded in London and features a new interpretation of "Black Heart" and "Brutality" as well as "Sleaze" and "The Days of Pearly Spencer". It reached number 156 on the French album charts.
- The album's title is a reference to the Greek myth of Orpheus, who descended into the underworld. The re-recordings were produced by the artist himself.
- This release was accompanied by a reissue of the original Marc and the Mambas album "Torment and Toreros". It features some of Almond's most self-penned and autobiographical work.
