The last issue of The Wood featured an interview with Bass Player Sam Ferrar of the up and coming band, Phantom Planet. The article briefly mentioned a rumored rivalry between bands Phantom Planet and Ozma*. This was called to the attention of Daniel Brummel, bassist of Ozma, and he immediately requested an interview to clear the matter up. I was more than happy to fulfill Daniel's request, and to take the opportunity to ask some questions unrelated to the band rivalry. Daniel and I had quite an interesting phone chat, and he revealed to me some very interesting information regarding Phantom Planet, a growing fan base, being labeled "Weezer-knock-offs", Sega Genesis, and much more. My conversation with Daniel Brummel was as follows | The last issue of The Wood featured an interview with Bass Player Sam Ferrar of the up and coming band, Phantom Planet.

'''The Wood''': Daniel, hi. I just wanted to say thanks for doing this interview. I suppose we'll just jump right into things. You wanted to talk about Phantom Planet, is there anything you wanted to clear up or say? | |||
'''Daniel Brummel''': Yeah, all I wanted to say was that we have been in the scene with those guys for a very long time, like 6 or 7 years now and we totally respect them and their talents. and we were never trying to insidiously slander anybody. Um it's just, little things happen and a little rivalry grew mainly out of jealousy they signed to a major label, we signed to an indie label, and it was just always in good fun. Now that we're both gaining respect in the larger music world I just feel kind of bad that they think we're talking shit about them for no reason. | '''Daniel Brummel''': Yeah, all I wanted to say was that we have been in the scene with those guys for a very long time, like 6 or 7 years now and we totally respect them and their talents. and we were never trying to insidiously slander anybody.
