“There were some similar Zeppelin hints in a couple of tracks on The All Is One”
Aaah, thank you, shakti! Haven’t thought of it myself, but that might explain why I have problems with “The all is one” (except for the amazing NOX), as I really don’t like Led Zep :/ Makes perfect sense! And it always scares me when reading about Zeppelin references/hints concerning a new album I’m waiting to receive, haha!
Expecting my copy to be delivered today or tomorrow.
Maybe everyone who wants a physical copy already found it. Otherwise:

Someone (or a few) mentioned in another thread that it was disappointingly weak pressing with plenty of surface noise/crackling. I bought two copies of the white version, and one had that problem, the other one not.
I suppose these might be possible, then:
Into the Sun
Leave It Like That
Mad Sun
Sinful, Wind-Borne
Go to California
The Slow Phase Out
X-3 (Knuckleheads In Space)
The Visitant
Toys
Psychonaut
Spin, Spin, Spin
Ulv Ulv
RockbottomAnd I assume they won’t exclude title tracks from EPs:
Mountain
Wearing Yr Smell
The Nerve Tattoo
Manmower
Starmelt/Lovelight
Ozone
Hey, Jane
The Other Fool
Walkin’ With J
SerpentineI’m sure they will still surprise
@ ThorEgil: Wooh, nice bonus! I was SO close to put the order, but backed out when actually realizing that shipping, taxes etc will make a total of at least €75 – AND I ONLY WANT THE 7″. And, mind you, I don’t need it for listening, as both tracks are previously released elsewhere. I just stupidly “need” it in my shelf.
So: maybe time for me to wake up and quit Motorpsycho discography completionism :/
Sad moment :(
“King of twilight” is great! For me also very associated with Iron Maiden from when I was a kid (b-side of the 1984 “Aces high” single). And since Mp has done “The trooper” during soundchecks it would all make sense – everything’s connected :D
I’m with Paolize here. For years I’ve stated that I want 100% Motorpsycho when I go to their shows. That doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy “All is loneliness”, “Into the sun”, “The pilgrim” or whatever, but in all cases I’d prefer more Mp material instead.
Wow! Not even half the set same as yesterday. The are not making it easy for Ingvald, which is awesome! He’s not on vacation :D
My report disappeared after a little edit? New try:
2,5 hours. “Ship of fools” on setlist (last in main set) but not played.
Although I’ve been looking forward to this I kept my expectations low. I mean, first gig with new drummer. Tomas shoes aren’t easy to fill. Also, there’s quite a chunk of music to learn. And that’s the “easy” part. Then there’s the communication thing playing in this band – good luck! But hey, I enjoyed the concert and really had a great time!
In parts sort of messy, but – actually – I don’t mind! My impression is that a certain amount of energy generated from being on the edge. I tend to like that kind of excitement :D Something tells me that Ingvald will be awesome a few shows into the tour.
Some struggling with vocal harmonies here and there, but nothing that ruined songs for me.
Low points: “Real again”, “Maypole” and “Dank state” – I really can do without those songs. Not saying they are crap, they’re just not my cup of melodies – just like many of the tracks on “Yay!”, unfortunately. That partly includes “Hotel Daedalus”, where I’m not too fond of the vocal melody, but it hit me yesterday how great its instrumental part becomes live!
“Feel” was better than ever, probably due to it following “Maypole” and “Dank state” ;)
I loved “Chariot…” (incl some mishaps?), a chaotic “The promise”, “Starhammer”, “The tower”, “The united debased” and watching Bent play chords – yes, both feet – on the Taurus while keeping fingers busy nailing pretty intricate bass lines.
But the two main highlights for me was “Mad sun” (a song that’s amazing in every form) and “Cosmoctopus”.
As usual, I was hoping for no covers. I want 100% Motorpsycho! But still, there’s no way I can’t enjoy “The pilgrim” or “Rock bottom” :)
Yes, nice to get some Reine! Only on one song, is what I heard aforehand, so, cool surprise! Also, I heard they wanted to play for three hours, but the venue didn’t allow that. And no, sorry, I can’t confirm this – it was just someone telling me :/
Summary: great show! Would definitely see a few more on this tour if I had the opportunity.
@ThorEgil
He’s Ingwild :)@Elvin
“Getting Pavement / Kanguru vibes from the cover( which might not be the cover)”I get Accept vibes :) “Russian roulette” to be specific
"SORRY, THIS IS SOLD OUT!"
That was quick. Last time I checked (afternoon, earlier today) I couldn't put them in the cart, and now they are gone. When will these be available from Stickman? I'll probably miss them there, too
@Angel_or_Daemon: True, I don't need another "Demon box". I defend the 12" format of the EPs, though, just because I'm not a big fan of 10" records (plus: aren't they quite long?).
Three of them I've never owned, though.
