Writing and Info

As Ozma's first effort in seven years following 2007's Pasadena[1] and it being the longest gap between studio albums for the band, it is unique in several ways. It opens with the unrelenting melodious rocker "Around The World In 80 Seconds," Ozma's first instrumental[2] since The Doubble Donkey Disc's "Korobeiniki." "Nervous" is notable as the first Ozma song written by drummer Kenn Shane, and the first lead vocal by keyboardist Star Wick. "Out The Window" is only the second Ozma song (the other being The Doubble Donkey Disc's "Immigration Song") to feature rhythm guitarist Jose Galvez on lead vocals. Also curious is the fact that bassist and frequent frontman Daniel Brummel only sings lead on two of the songs.
