Another masterpiece by the Tentacles, though this one seems to have fallen through the cracks. Try the web page for a music store called Muzos. Tracks: Cat DNA, Ahu Belahu, Ghedengi, Wob Glass, Neurochasm, Become the Other, Vibuthi, Plurnstyle
Track one is simply a ripper, and Ahu is the typical Ozric interlude track: short and soundy. The next three tunes take you down some pretty sick corridors until you're soothed by the title track. Then, Vibuthi. This song does every trick in the Ozric book. Ed starts out acoustic, and very Arabic, and by the end of the song he's blitzed you with as much speed and distortion as you'll need. Plurnstyle: bouncy; perfect album closer.

Ozric Tentacles - Another Good One, Nov 14 2007
By Steven Sly - Published on Amazon.com

This mid 90's offering from The Ozrics is another psychedelic progressive rock feast for the ears. I have the re-mastered version and like the other releases it really sounds fantastic. This album starts out a little slow for me as the first few tracks don't really blow me away, but the second two thirds of the album is classic Ozrics with plenty of fantastic instrumental progressive rock workouts. Ozrics albums tend to have a lot of sameness about them and it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between them, but if you like what the band does you will probably like this album.

OT were already becoming the other glowstick waving entity at this point-assimilated to far less effect than what would come to be-but the group always seemed to have enough musical integrity to supply enough arranged ammunition to avoid stinker status.
