Yes, sounds like someone very much in love with the MP experience, like we all are! Lately I've been thinking about what it is that causes the epiphany, the extatic feeling that stays for weeks after. For me that must be the special state of being in the here and now when our 3 main selfs; body mind and feeling are integrated. This music makes you move,charges you up with energy, And it makes you feel (again). And it let's you reflect on our existence in this world. Like Gurdjieff used to teach: when all 3 are integrated one may call oneself a human being. I cherish these experiences which are so sparse in our lives. Let's have some more and share it!
Thank you, Be, a treasure chest if ever I saw one! Those were different times, and at the time I didn't always knew how to appreciate Geb's contributions aside from his drumming, but now in retrospect and listening to these recordings, in fact I kinda miss that ol' banjo, the glockenspiel as well, they had a nice versatile sound in 1998, as much as I love the present incarnation of the band, it makes one realise they were already that great 20 years ago! Thanx for making this accessible! :o
Wow! Alkmaar is like nextdoor to my hometown, feeling blised, blissarred, ehm, a bit extatic. Everybody come to Never er…Nederland and let's space out and rock our socks off!
Totally agree with sunchild here. Don't go nitpicking like this. I apreciate the Motorpsychic journey as a whole, as an ever growing body of work, even the lesser songs are part of their development toward the greatness they convey to the world today. I strongly believe in the freedom of artists, the freedom even to fail. It's very human to not be perfect, I think in fact that is a beautiful thing of being human and artists may show us so we realise.
come on man, are you bored or are you boring?

Since music is waves permeating substance it is probably capable of even bigger cosmic things, we don't know of yet. What I know for sure and experience peronally since my concert attendance is that I have been charged up and am still aglow with happiness and love to share around. It is almost like a religious experience, although we must not forget Bent&Snah and collaborators are only human, it may well be that on some loud night that they channel holy cosmic power which is bigger than us all and can't be explained, only experienced HALLELUWAH!
Bruhaha, this whole thing reminds me of the theological history of the Netherlands (Holland where I'm from) (…come to Netherland!…), when the original protestant church devided endlessly into smaller sub-churches over minor differences in taste and interpretation of the (MP-)gospel…
Typical believers'behaviour is what we are all displaying here. Thou shalt not ride a bike on sundays as this is considered working on the day of the Lord, neither shalt thou have any audible love cult on mondays! By the way, you can recognize a true member of the MPcult by a Cave Tyrrannis t-shirt worn inside out, and the logo tatooed microscopically small on their forehead!
:wink:
To me it doesn't matter much which songs they play as long as they play in the magical motorpsycho way. Be it a powerpopsong, shoegazer ballad or spacetripjam, it's their musicianship that always astounds me. If I find one thing annoying at concerts its's the "jukebox mentality" of some fans, shouting out songtitles at artitsts who should be completely free to do whatever they want to do! Rock on, Jeroen
You're probably right, Great King Rat, mine was just a free artistic interpretation. We must beware of them, but they better beware of the Cosmic Rules (instant karma's gonna get ya!) haha!
By the way, talk about linguistic, there used to be lots of word (and title-)puns in sleevenotes etc. of MP albums, another example of the unstopable flow of ideas and creativity of our guys!
Cheers! Jeroen
Or…."Tyrants Beware, the great mothership of Love is coming….(my interpretation and reason to wear this t-shirt proud and aloud).And they call Latin a dead language…
