One of the most influential 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. A raggle-taggle unpretentious assortment of punk-infused dreadlocked hippies since 1983 the Ozric Tentacles wove psychedelic audio-tapestries that captured the almost dangerous musical diversity of the free festival scene blending acid rock with dub reggae ethnic world music & electronic jazzy experimentation. This was the soundtrack to the herb-fragranced alternative lifestyle that wound it s way around country lanes looking for a place to set up & party away from the psychoses of corporate life. Tantric Obstacles was released in 1985 on cassette only following in the footsteps of their debut Erpsongs. The album contains tracks that are still firm live favorites - the energetic guitar space-rocker Sniffing Dog & the more complex Og-Ha-Be which kicks off the album with the trademark Ozrics sound - a funky riff that gradually builds & recedes & builds again until it eventually explodes upon a scintillating pinnacle of space guitar. Music to Gargle At is almost an early version of the 91 Strangetitude single Sploosh! ; with it s water samples electronic beats & plug hole noises.
