Just got through the first hour of this, and my mind has left my body…or the other way around. What a treasure! This is Motorpsycho very close to what I consider their peak…just rattling off one classic after another. That section that goes STG/Vortex Surfer/Chien/Manmower…ridiculous! Show me any other band who can put together something like that, and still have a ton of epics to go. Maybe Pink Floyd at their peak (live '75, before WIsh You Were Here was even released, everyone came to hear all of Dark Side of the Moon which they got, but were treated to not just one, but *two* (almost) full classic albums before that (WYWH and Animals). That's the only other example I can think of. Motorpsycho were completely in the zone around that time.
That's the one I used. I read it as the phone number being for booking only. Couldn't find any other way to contact them.
I was just told by Cecilie Lykke that my order (placed on Oct 15) hadn't been forwarded by Paypal. So there was indeed a hickup after all. I think those of you who ordered early but still haven't received anything might want to get in touch with the webshop…
Well, I did at least receive a reply today, so there's hope. DIY or not, I think it's kind of past the fanzine stage at this point. What is one supposed to do when it doesn't show up? It's been several weeks since the blog said that all October orders had been processed, so there is the possibility that it got lost in the mail. The problem is – who knows? I can't sit still forever and just wait.
Sorry to sound like a whiny kid, but my patience is up. It's been two months since I ordered, and not a word since then. I emailed the Motorpsycho webshop several days ago, but no reply. If it's not here on Monday I'll be filing a complaint with Paypal.
Me neither. To be honest, this is starting to piss me off a little. I'll cut them some slack for it taking time getting all of the orders out, but it looks like there is absolutely no pattern to how the orders are being processed.
Could there have been a hickup with some of the initial/very first orders?
I've always heard lots of krauty influences in Motorpsycho, but not always that overtly. There's the cover of Halleluwah of course, but more typically it's in the hypnotic, repetitive space sections in songs like K9. The motorik beat is certainly there in Uberwagner. Lastly, for some reason I've always felt that there's a lot of Manuel Göttsching in Snah's playing, but that might be just in my imagination.
Well, I'll be doing La Danse du Bonheur when it arrives!
(Love when someone gets the shakti reference!)
I'm beginning to lose my patience here. I ordered on October 15, probably only hours after the order link went live. Nothing here yet. Anyone in the same situation?
Did anyone get theirs from the webshop yet? I can wait, just want to know if they've started to trickle out.
Does anyone know anything more about Ringnesfestivalen? The info on their site is semi-cryptic…appears to be a very small, very low-profile thing. The program doesn't say whether they will be playing Friday or Saturday. It's not too far from me, so it's tempting, but the Saturday and full-weekend tickets are sold out.
