PRODUCT DETAILS
For over forty years, Ozric Tentacles have carved out a universe entirely their own. From their roots on the UK's free festival circuit to becoming one of the defining names in experimental rock, the Ozrics have spent more than four decades charting a wonderfully offbeat course through prog, space rock, electronica & beyond, creating an instantly recognisable musical world that has inspired generations of musicians & listeners alike.
‘Harmonic Mind’, the band's 17th studio album, is another welcome chapter in that ever-evolving story. Named after the geometric structure & harmonic nature of existence, the album sees the Ozrics once again weaving together soaring guitar melodies, intricate rhythms, lush synth textures & deep, hypnotic grooves into the kind of free-flowing psychedelic odyssey that has become their trademark.
Recorded at the band's home studios as it gradually took shape across Scotland, Devon & finally Glastonbury, ‘Harmonic Mind’ also captures something a little different. Featuring the full touring line-up - including drummer Pat Garvey, bassist Corey Wallace, percussionist Paul Hankin & multi-instrumentalist Saskia Maxwell - the album has a natural energy that reflects the chemistry of the band's live performances, with each player bringing their own voice to the music.
From the driving pulse of "Guardstones" to the cosmic momentum of "Space Platform", ‘Harmonic Mind’ is packed with the flowing musicianship & exploratory spirit that fans have come to expect & adore. "Malachite" pays tribute to one of Ed Wynne's favourite minerals, while also giving centre stage to his custom sandalwood acoustic from Kif Wood Guitars, complete with a beautiful malachite inlay around the sound hole. It's one of many moments that highlights the warmth & detail running throughout the album, alongside the fluid interplay between Ed Wynne's guitar & Silas Neptune's ever-shifting synth landscapes.
Produced by Ed Wynne & Silas Neptune, with mastering handled by Silas for the first time, the album feels both fresh & reassuringly familiar. Even the return of the beloved Erp on the cover art offers a knowing nod to longtime listeners. There's no radical change of direction here, just Ozric Tentacles doing what they do best.
Since emerging from the UK's festival scene in the early '80s, Ozric Tentacles have remained one of psychedelic music's true originals. More than four decades on, they're still pushing forward, still exploring new sonic possibilities, & still making music with the same spirit of curiosity & freedom that first set them apart. 2026 sees Ozric Tentacles continue their extensive touring schedule with a large run of Autumn/Winter shows & a number of co-headline shows alongside The Orb.

Good packaging, product was in good condition and showed up on time great album no problems with any of the vinyls either very happy with it.

Would definitely buy from Pale Dot Records again. The delivery was fast and the records sounds great!
Purchased as a Christmas gift for my 29 year old son. Can't wait for him to open. Packaged with care and timely shipping. Positive experience!
Vinyls arrived in perfect condition, expertly packed, and 3 days from the date of purchase (over the Thanksgiving holiday, no less). Could not be more pleased. Thanks so much!
We received our vinyl fast, it was fairly price, and they had a great selection to choose from. One record we purchased had an issue on the track, and the owner was quick to resolve the issue for us. I’ll be purchasing all of our records from this store moving forward!
The records and the sleeve are really nice. Pacific Dot Records blew me away with shipping it out like, immediately after I ordered it. Arrived well protected and perfect. No complaints.
fast shipping, great communication, and awesome staff. very responsive with messages too. can’t wait to purchase from them again
Records arrived inside the special record boxes, unopened, and in pristine condition. They didn't very long to begin the shipping either. Some places make you wait 3-5 days just to have it shipped out. They did not.
This is not about the product. I've ordered from PBD before and the Vinyls that come from them are wonderful and pressed really well!
This review is more on customer service.
USPS seemed to have goofed around a bit and cause a delay of about 1.5 weeks. Tristan was a highly communicative person and was reassuring with the options I had regarding if my order never arrived. Good sense of humor, accountability, and customer satisfaction. The Sweetwater of vinyl shops. Officially my vinyl go to!
