Couple of the songs are on youtube, if you can´t wait any longer!
"The Afterglow"

"August"
Signed (by 3 of 4 members) vinyl E.S.P by the band 22?
(Kenneth Kapstad did the drums on the record)
Im really getting stressed out now! Still no Trondheim-gig confirmed?
Byscenen would be a natural place, onsidering they´ve continuesly played there alot the last couple of years!
The new Monstereo record is insanely awesome!
Just listened through "Silver Lines" and "Dead Space" while playing drums along.
Awesome shit.
Got the Gullibles Travails-feeling during Dead Space, where there´s some kick ass chill jamming with guitar solo!
Didnt know this kind of music could come from Bergen. Bergensbølgen isnt really related to this music. You should live in Trondheim, where this kind of music comes from in Norway!!!

Hi!
I
I cant not hear it as a similiar record to TDDU, because of Kapstad and Kvernberg.
Its really massive, long songs, spaced-out and huge.
I guess I need more time to listen before I throw the dice, but I think it will build alot after a couple of more listens!
toter panda: Im guessing it was Snah who told you this?
Bent is loud, Kenneth is fast but only Snah is God!
Agreed supernaut! Alot of drummers nowadays goes for the ultra-simple "less is more" groovy 4/4 playing (Steve Jordan), while others go for "more" playing, but play insanely "clean" grooves and brakes (Gavin Harrison). Thats why Kenneth is my fav. drummer of all times. He don´t follow any rules! And the approach and grooves are insane. He plays in ways I personally would never come up with. And im not talking speed or time signatures, but all the small things in between and the breaks and all.
Im not sure Motorpsycho would still exist if it wasnt for Kenneth, and the way he has evolved Snah and Bent to becomming the band they are today is just great!
But I also agree that on the old "straighter" songs, he tends to overplay a bit. Its fun, but its not necesserily the best all the time!
Im hoping Motorpsycho, Sundfør, El Caco, Enslaved and Elephant9 w/Reine Fiske win their categories!
BronYAur: 10 minute long in a live-setting can still become a 4min on a CD.
I´ve heard MP do 4min songs for more than 10min. But as always, I wouldnt speculate to much in what we´ll get, as they always surprise us! But one thing is sure. I´ve liked every single song they´ve made so far, and I dont think this will end up now.
If you need any info on Kenneth´s drumset(s), cymbals etc. I may help you. He´s my biggest inspiration, and I´ve studied his cymbals and drumgear for many years!
Cool project btw!
drugthing: Really cool! Looking forward to checking out the rest of your stuff on spotify. Any full-length coming up?
(Shout out om dere spiller i Trondheim!)
Btw: Why is Kenneth playing with Oslo Ess? Not his genre at all, and in my opinion it´s really lousy, crappy music. They are good musicians, but the music is shit!
I get that Kenneth plays with God Seed, Monolithic and Martin Hagfors, but Oslo Ess?
