Ozma

Seems like bands are regrouping a lot lately, and after only a few years, sometimes months, of calling it "quits" we see them drawn back together, as if some irresistible force was calling to them, for their work has not yet been completed. Well, I'm not gonna list 'em all here, just gonna talk about one: Ozma.
Mysteriously calling it quits sometime after the release of their last & most expansive album, Spending Time On The Borderline three years ago, I'm sure broke more than just a few hearts, as Ozma seemed to be fast becoming darlings of their Pasadena scene and had a huge following on the west coast. The few years of hiatus brought on quite a few side projects, from both frontmen Daniel Brummel & Ryen Slegr comes the computer pop improv of Commuter Music, Ryen Slegr did some work with The Elected, as well as Yes, Dear, his band with Ozma guitarist Jose Galvez. Daniel Brummel also put out a solo album & joined forces with psych-rock outfit Gone With The Ghosts. Phew, you got all that.

A refresher course:
Ozma - Natalie Portman
Ozma - Battlescars
Ozma - Eponine

Ozma took big steps away from the Weezer comparisons on their last album. Let's see where they go now.
