Ozarks – Self-Titled LP Out Now!

The wait is finally over! Today Wil-Ru is proud to announce the release of the highly anticipated debut self-titled album by Ozarks! Since the music contained on this album is so classy, we thought it best to give the album the proper treatment with a luxurious vinyl release! Ozarks deliver up some pretty impressive modern baroque-pop tunes played in the fashion of the late sixties and early seventies! Fifteen tracks in all crammed with dense moody arrangements and light-hearted poppy psychedelia spanning over 40 minutes in length! This limited edition LP (300 copies) comes in a super nice full color glossy LP jacket with a two sided insert featuring some stunning giallo inspired artwork by band members Robbie Augspurger and Eric Adrian Lee. Lots of other goodies are included in this package as well! Don’t miss out!

Next Friday marks the release date of the latest installment of warped sunburnt desert psychedelia by Morriconez. “Cloud of Dust, Cry of Death“, the latest musical score by Jeffrey Wentworth Stevens is a bit more of a fleshed out version of Jeff’s previous cassette mini-album under the moniker “Jjango Cleefworth Morriconez“.
