“After spending a good number of years playing Marshall and Mesa Boogie amplifiers, I always thought that there was a better tone out there. When The Flatliners began writing our new, and fifth, studio album I began tinkering around with many different kinds of amps to get a new sound; Something to rejuvenate the general vibe of the band. Orange beat out every other amp I could get my hands on, and left me with a smile on my face, knowing that I’d found our new sound.” Chris Cresswell (on Orange Web page)
