Delivery: Yay! Music – we’ll see… Or listen respectively, as long as it takes to digest this strange item of an album.
Obviously there are one or two pearls on it, especially the “Patterns” single (but we knew that beforehand, didn’t we) and at least one track I wouldn’t consider fit for publication on a regular MP album, though I can’t name it right now.“Hotel Daedalus” sounds like a remarkably acceptable “Kingdom of Oblivion” outtake. For my taste there could have been much more of that alledged Swedish Psychedelia dressing on this acoustic salad. Somebody called it “best MP album since DDU” – strange… The best thing for me right now is probably the back cover with its Lumpy Gravy allusion – probably hinting at this albums position in the MP catalogue?
But hey, it is much to early to judge and I’m probably just starting the usual process of burying exxagerated expectations before starting to enjoy the new thing. Keep on listening…
I support that. There are much clumsier reviews out there – and this one gives you a good idea of the album – and the reviewers feelings instead of just a reviewers writing qualities show-off. I’m positively curious…
Funny reviews. The first one mostly says what NAY! is not, while the second one I disagree with almost everything said except about the new album. Nice reading though. Thanks, Punj!
From the few bits I’ve listened to I got the impression that Kanaan are just repeating the odd stoner rock formula – and though they deliver a sound I like a lot I still cannot judge wether they have any larger creative potential. Probably I should find out by intensive listening?
I wonder – is this young Ingvald who played with me in Freak City Band at Burg Herzberg some 11-12 years ago? He looks like him – although hard to say cause he was pretty young then…
I immediately thought of this one:

Yay? Gabba Gabba Hey!
Good old Motorpsycho. Always leaving a trail or two without being actually nailed to one. Btw.: The first YES album (cover above) could musically actually be regarded as the first Motorpsycho predecessor – some kind of motorpsychedelic Dinosaur. With the “Time & a Word” album Yes then went off their own specific direction, like it or not, leaving for some later band to continue where they began.

29.10.2023 DE Berlin – SO36Looks pretty complete. Maybe another Dutch gig at Groningen or Amsterdam on 9.10.? And those two days between 14. & 17.? Belgium? Luxembourg? France??? (Though the French generally appear rather ignorant towards MP – probably Strasbourg Laiterie?)
Those Nepal gigs with Tosh call for another Roadwork release – probably “Tangerine Rowboats Motordream”?
Düsseldorf again for a change. Though I prefer Cologne for natural reasons (being my hometown, being not Düsseldorf, providing good locations) I will have to pay a visit to Zakk again. And/Or SO36? Legendary Club – and a MP first. Probably. Collossaal Aschaffenburg an option as well. We’ll see…
