I talked to Ryen briefly about how much the movie Tron impacted Ozma stylistically, and ever since I've been wondering about if any influence ever came from the larger cyberpunk genre. I've been reading William Gibbson's Neuromancer in my free time, and I've noticed stylistic similarities. Namely a fixation on advanced technology (in Ozma's case flying cars and spaceships) and fixations on ethnic cultures (in Ozma's case, Russia and Japan). What do you guys think?

I suppose #3 can be updated now. After another 15 years have passed, there is now a fan Tribute Album! https://ozmacord.bandcamp.com/

Check out Stop. Pause. Record!: A Tribute to Ozma, now available on Bandcamp! The folks in OZMACORD did an awesome job putting this together.

Nice. One of my favorite concerts was this show. I saw them at the Lowell Auditorium in Massachusetts. I then saw Ozma a few more times at The Middle East in Boston, one of my favorite venues at the time. Pictures unfortunately have been lost (or are buried somewhere, effectively lost).

Ozma was officially announced as the opening act for Weezer's Yahoo! Outloud Tour. It is also my birthday today

Hey yall!
I was going through the old rock and roll part three enhanced edition's bonus features and noticed that this interview has never really been well acknowledged. So I dug up the April 2000 archive of the UCLA Daily Bruin and transcribed it for your reading pleasure.

A very young Jose and Dan at a Weezer meetup pictured in the winter 1996 edition of the Weezine, had to have been only a few months after Dan joined Ozma. Crazy to think about.

currently, we are doing song survivor and it's been pretty fun!

Really loving this trend of Ozma releasing some great quality copies of their older stuff on Bandcamp! Go give 'em some of your hard earned money:  https://ozmamusic.bandcamp.com/album/cuatro-y-ocho-1996
