Razzmatazz Orfeum is the second studio album recorded by The Moog.[8][9] The album was produced by Geoff Ott (Pearl Jam, Queen Of The Stone Age, Mark Lanegan) and recorded in Seattle, Washington, The United States. The first single, You Raised A Vampire, was released in colored vinyl 7" with stunning artwork by Gris Grimly. The 7" also includes a B-side cover (recorded in Budapest, Citysound Studio, recording engineer Marton Palinkas, mixed and mastered by Geoff Ott, Seattle) of the Bauhaus classic The Passion Of Lovers featuring Bauhaus/Love and Rockets bassist/vocalist David J, who became a fan of the band after seeing them perform in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California in 2008. The video for You Raised A Vampire was shot in the same gothic building where the first Underworld movie was made in Budapest, Hungary where.
