 Topic: New Ozric Tentacles album Paper Monkeys soon out!Posted: November 28 2011 at 05:27 |

Yep, I know what you mean. I grabbed the vinyl copy, and it's decent, but it's exactly what you'd expect from an Ozrics album. Reliable, I suppose, but the band is in desperate need of a rethink perhaps?

Nothing outstanding. All samey to me. They desperately need a hiatus.

There´s always YouTube darkshade, if you´d like to know how it sounds
 I´m putting this one on my list, but quite frankly there is so much other stuff out there, that I really want - so getting a new Ozrics album is something I´ll wait a bit for - especially since nothing remarkably "new" has happened: Still sounds pretty awesome though, but then again I love these guys! |

Get something better Mike.

Hm. I liked The Yum Yum Tree a lot, and many people said the same thing you said. Maybe I'll ask for it for Christmas.

It's OK- better than a lot of their albums- but worse than a lot of their albums.
 Some good moments- nothing really jumps out. |

I'm most definitely excited. I heard Yum Yum Tree and instantly fell in love with them.

I like the cover. I'm not a big fan of the name though.

Worse than Heritage's cover. Congrats Ozric.

I'm afraid I need another Ozric Tentacles album in my collection like I need another Ozric Tenacles in my collection my collection my collection.
 I've lost count. I think they may be breeding or something.

Well, it's not that awful... It has some retro japanese touch to it. Pretty strong semiotic sign systems in it. In my opinion not even half as terrible as DT's upcoming Dramatic Turn of Events' cover, which looks as banal a child's drawing and reminds me all those horrible Supertramp albums from the 80's  I still suffer PTSD from hearing those, don't know how I'm going to cope with the resurrection of these visuals. |

I think it looks alright. I like how it mixes the space theme with some oriental themes. Not their best, but not bad. |

They never were any good at cover arts. The only successful one is The Yum Yum Tree.
What about this ugly bugger - looks like graffiti from inside a school yard   |

There`s the cover art. It`s pretty bad and departure from their usual |
