THE CLASSIC 1999 ALBUM THAT REPRESENTED THE OZRICS' PROGRESSION IN TO ELECTRONICA - AVAILABLE ON DOUBLE LP

"This is an album to treasure - it'll surprise you at every turn" Joel McIver (Record Collector)

One of the most infuential bands to emerge from the UK's festival scene, the Ozrics layer ambient & ethereal landscapes with freeform dub trips, incredible rave grooves & psychedelic progressive rock. It's an open exploration of music & the soul.

For over 30 years, the Ozrics have experienced the vicissitudes of the rock & roll life. The band has fourished through a number of line- up changes, spawned several side projects, created their own record label, scored a hit record & sold over a million albums world-wide. And yet, the basic motivation behind the band's existence has never wavered.

Their signature blend of hippy aesthetics & raver electronics with spiraling guitars, textured waves of keyboard & midi samplers & super- groovy bass & drum rhythms continue to delight fans across the world to this day.

Originally released in September 1999, 'Waterfall Cities' was a giant leap forward for the band, taking a more obvious step into electronica, whilst still managing to retain their unique sound. An explosion of keyboards, acid squelches & blistering guitar passages, the musical & technical brilliance of the Ozrics comes to the fore in strange & unexpected ways on this album.
