Hi all,
Long time Ozrics fan checking in after a few years on another orbit. I say long time but only as far back as the Dovetail days in the early 90's and I still have my duff Dovetail release of Erpland with the missing few seconds of each track lol. Later replaced with the Snappers release but that's the only one I've replaced with a Snappers release until Curious Corn in 97. I was an infrequent visitor to the earlier message board, under what name I don't recall but I'm glad to have found this one and I've also discovered that I'm a couple of albums behind (The Floors too far away and Technicians of the Sacred now duly ordered your honour). Like I said I've been on another orbit for a while.
I've been listening to Ozrics tracks since about midday today. I was at a car boot this morning and I managed to find a replacement stereo amp for my dad whose current amp has shit itself so when I got the 'new' one home I needed to test it and I thought I should break out some Ozrics as a good choice of sounds to see how this amp copes. I started with Paper Monkeys and I'm ashamed to admit it was still in its cellophane wrapper after sitting on the shelf since I won't say when but anyway it was a good start. I then moved on to Erpland and following a distraction put on some Eat Static, Nodens Ictus Spacelines and Zubzub for a while. I was deliberately saving my favorite album which remains Become the Other and as I write I'm listening to it for the third time. On the same car boot amplifier too and the Philips CD player that came with it.
I've seen Ozrics live a couple of times at Reading in the 90's and would love to see them again.
Now I wonder where my Oakum t shirt is?
Peace all.
