@Krist – I was also convinced that the Ocean Sound "Gullvag" album (i.e. N.O.X.) would be released as a standalone album (something like EKFFF or Begynnelser), not as part of a larger, regular album. And then, that the Black Box material would provide the next regular album (probably a double based on what Mr Le Bad had written about those sessions). Presuambly, as you suggest, there's more material from those sessions that will likely be used at a later date.

Like others have stated in this thread, I wasn't especially wowed by the The Same Old Rock, which to me tastes a little bit of eggplant. I like the song, and I like it more, the more I hear it; but if it wasn't Motorpsycho it wouldn't make me stand up and take notice. But this *is* Motorpsycho. So I do. 8O :lol:
@David Noice indeed

Well rather remarkably, the album has already surfaced at a download site! I can't imagine there are that many people who have already received copies but clearly one of them doesn't care about the band's livelihood. :evil:
And before anyone asks, no I didn't try to download it.

No equivalent given for vinyl yet.
I can't find the link now, but one site stated that the album is produced by Bent, mixed by Scheps, and mastered by Deathprod.
@Blashyrkh – Thanks. I should've noticed that. D'oh!
Every dedicated fan thinks the guitarist of their favourite rock band is god. We're just lucky ours is. :lol:
@Hercules – Where in London have you posted your Snah Is God art? I'd love to it in person.
Five Rise Records in the UK has a slightly different blurb for the album that incudes the detail that the album has been mixed by Andrew Scheps at his Punkerpad Studio.
@nicoot – Well-discovered! Very interesting reading. Can't wait to see how this all pans out (pun intended).
@Ratmaus: Thanks. This too.
@Marc: Ha ha. Good one.
I personally hope the NOX suite appears on one CD and the other tracks on the other. :wink:
Other potential influences on the album's song titles:
'One must imagine Sisyphus happy' is apparently a quote from Albert Camus' The Myth of Sisyphus.
'The Reign of Humbug' is the title of: (1) an 1825 satirical etching; (2) an 1836 satire in verse by an anonymous writer; and (3) a 1900 pamphlet published by the Gaelic League and written by Agnes O'Farrelly. I could imagine this following some of the lyrical trends apparent in 'The Tower' and 'Psychotzar'.
