Nice! I’ve always wanted to see the entire set, the VIVA special being one of my goto acoustic MP vids on youtube, and ‘98 being my favorite MP year. Thanks!
Wow. This record is so much better than my (pretty high) expectations that I’m at a loss of words. Really. MP is doing something quiet extraordinary with Paus’ songs, his voice, his lyrics and melancholy. And all the changes, the details and the production: Amazing. Need to experience this live. Thanks guys <3
@Oakey : Good to have you back! Agree totally with your comment.
@Punj : Couldn’t agree more. They would NAIL it. A real acoustic folkish piece, I’m sure that’s on they’re bucket list. I hope so.
Regarding kraut I always found a Neu influence on Überwagner (I guess also reflected in the title?) or maybe it’s just me. But I’d def love them to explore this side more, hm, dreaming. I’m exited about the new project though, the one after this latest Tower installment, I think this will point the direction ahead, at least for the next few years.
And, regarding the topics above: this band never ceases to spoil us. It’s never ending, and I’m 100% sure they’re in it for the long run, they’re still sonic scientists and the muse seems to be ever present. Thank God or some Space Deity for that!
Love it! Nice roadtune, rolling along. Very TITS agree, didn’t expect the country vibe at all. The guys do a nice job (of course), even sweet background harmonies:) and Thomas, great. Nice w something immediate once in a while. Reminds me of the early 00s MP. I really get that this must have been an adrenaline rush for Paus, going from the more, hm, slow, to this.
What a TREAT! This is indeed just what I’ve been waiting for; getting the guys to speak! Great insights & great production, 6/6, thanks! I know this is the premiere tonight, but anyway, please: More!
We need more oral history regarding MP, this is important stuff you’re doing. Thanks for the hard work Bernie and Sam, all the best! â¤ï¸
For the Norwegians: 15 minutes into the podcast «Krisemøter» with Ole Paus (13 September), he shares some beautiful words about the recording process with MP in France, very in awe of their commitment and musicianship. This album might be good little nugget, I hope to catch a show.
Hi all, there were some great videos of Feel and N2S and a jam on the Facebook page (In the MP-family) but they seem to be gone! Does anybody know what happened? And, are there more? Such a great setlist, and GREAT “stageâ€! Like the old days. Whoever picked up Tomcat’s ticket is a lucky guy! Hopefully the video’s will turn up on Bernie’s pageðŸ™
As I missed the tour and had to experience it through the forum I think reading the Avellino setlist gave me the most goosebumps. What a perfectly composed set list. Old and new, long and short, mellow and heavy, and Coventry Boy, mmm. The Wheel. I’d love to see MP in a theater-setting. I’d also love to see them in London, saw them in a pub in Camden in 00 or 01, it was really special in such a small intimate space. Though I think bigger spaces gives the sound more room, more air. Anyway, seems like a special tour, happy for you guys who got to witness this. MP is such a gift that keeps giving, thank you Bent, Snah, Thomas and Reine. Will dive into Motorpsychodelic Clips in the upcoming days, thanks Bernie✊
Edit: And the 2019 iteration of Fools Gold – mindblowing, the gentleness, the tides of sound 🧡
@punj : I guess the IG comment is correct as it must have been posted by Bent, today âœŒï¸ But any reports from the gig would be nice!
Didn’t know about the Om riff before your link, sounds great! Lucky you who will see this tour, amazing setlists. The Other Fool seems to be a standard for this tour – interesting. A forgotten gem IMO, will be nice to hear how it develops during the tour.
Motorpsychedelic Clips : Bring it on! You’re doing great work! Can’t wait to keep up w everything. 2019 is indeed another good MP-year, and it’s just starting ✨
@Punj – This just out on MPs IG:
oh, and for all those out there who are into the statitics of it all:
t-man, other fool > om riff > alchemyst, stardust, the C,
greener, p-tzar > hogwash
> bartok, lux // the T
This makes me so happy! Great footage. Finally Stardust, what a gem, and bedroom eyes. Wow. Hoping for more than just one note of The Crucible! But thanks! Lucky people who were there. Looking forward for more goodies ahead ðŸ™
And Punj, thanks for the reply, I’m abs *not* aware of all their references (and yes they abs referenced stuff before LTEC) – they’ve always been standing on the shoulders of giants and contemporaries. And they’ve always made it their own. Since the very start. I guess I’m just not a fan of a lot of what they’ve been referencing and exploring the last decade(!) but I still feel it, feel them, feel Bent! and Snah! and now Thomas!, feel an urgency, feel their exploration, even if it’s changed. This is what makes them unique (unlike Yes as you explain them): there’s no laurels in sight! Only exploration, and I guess we all drop in and out, according to our inclinations, but there’s always *something* there.
