orgiastic
Like frenzied revelry
Orgiastic describes frenzied, unrestrained revelry or ecstasy—the kind associated with ancient Dionysian rites involving wine, music, and sexual abandon.
The word applies to any wild, uninhibited celebration or emotional state: an orgiastic frenzy of dancing, orgiastic consumption during the holidays.
It suggests excess that overwhelms normal restraint.
