      Would anyone want to share some photos of the new merch?

      pretty wild tie-dye t-shirts with a picture of Professor Baltahzar

      sounds promising.
      :wacko:

        Does the order from the international MP-shop include a digital copy?

        Could one of the pre-orderers please let us know if a download code is included.

        Nope. Unfortunately no download code. Disappointing. To be honest.

        would write to the shop occasionally (or has someone already?) But first I want to sort out the transport damage – I made a collective order with five copies. Unfortunately all damaged – one more than the other. Bummer. :wacko: .

        Next time polylined sleeves please!

        Lined inner sleeves wouldn’t have been an exaggeration either.

        Overall, the packaging is rather unimpressive, especially for the high price. There were times when we could be happy about the form and content. Oh, if only we had a proper label that took care of everything. Wait a minute…
        Now we seem to have to accept the back to diy status for the time being.

        Nagging? Not really. Just observations.

        Above all, I’m looking forward to the new music. :mp:

          My enthusiasm is very limited this time. The announcement text doesn’t really knock my socks off either. Rather the opposite. It does say “not a collection of B-sides or simply leftovers”. But the whole text still sounds exactly like that. Yay! hasn’t really grabbed me yet. It’s definitely the album I’ve listened to the least. And every time it came up in my selection, I thought “Nah, leave it.”
          And now I realise: somehow I’m not so keen on what is supposed to be the new Motorpsycho album. Even the new single “All my life (I love you)” doesn’t necessarily increase my anticipation.
          What’s more, I’m currently sensing that my desire to pre-order has been significantly dampened because the connection via Stickman is no longer there. Until now it was clear: MP would be ordered from Stickman. Now it feels like it’s completely arbitrary.

          Incidentally, the feature “Tintype Splatter vinyl Motorpsycho stores exclusive release” is irritating. Because this is exactly the version you can already pre-order from Bandcamp, Juno or Rough Trade. How exclusive is exclusive? Or are there only exclusive releases with the new label?

          I really don’t know what to make of the whole reorganisation yet.

          :wacko:

            So sad. Great loss. True indie rock icon. He will be greatly missed.

              Strikingly small clubs, by the way. I wonder what awaits us there? Nice little acoustic tour?

              Current press photo in duo mode, anyway:

                Motorpsycho goes from three to two: – Maybe the best we’ve had

                In an Instagram post published on Sunday evening, Motorpsycho announces that they are parting ways with Tomas Järmyr after six years.

                photo
                In 2022, Motorpsycho released “Ancient Astronauts”. Now three becomes two.

                The Swede took over the drums after Kenneth Kapstad left the band in 2017. In addition to his time in Motorpsycho, he has played with Årabrot, Black Moon Circle and Yodok, among others. Together with Motorpsycho, he has six releases. The most recent of them, “Ancient Astronauts”, garnered good reviews when it was released last year

                – Good luck in future escapades
                The post, which is signed Bent Sæter and Hans Magnus Ryan, is a picture of Järmyr. Below, they thank drummer Tomas Järmyr for the collaboration.

                “We thank TJ for six years of service on board the mothership, and wish him the best of luck in his future escapades as everyone’s favorite freelance drummer. We wish you the best of luck, Tomas – hope you find more meaning, joy, creative fulfillment and happiness out there than we were able to offer.”

                Preparing for tour
                Bent Sæther says to Adresseavisen that Järmyr “is perhaps the best drummer we’ve had”.

                But;

                – Eventually it turned out that we were too different in method, interests, commitment and ambitions for us to continue together. We wish him the best of luck in the future and are sure that he will find lots of other things and many others that suit him better

                Who will eventually replace Järmyr is not yet known.

                – We are now on our way to India on a two-week tour and continue with our work, says Sæther.

                Tomas Järmyr currently does not wish to comment on the matter

                  By the way: last night I dreamt that I met KK at some kind of garden party. And he revealed to me – as if we were confidants – that he was going to return to Motorpsycho, but that it was still a secret. Crazy but somehow soothing.
                  But also I would say that Tomas was/is the best drummer Motorpsycho had. What a pity.

                    Where does the information come from that they don’t pay him enough? Is that proven or just conjecture?

                      What?! I’m shocked. :wacko: But also deeply grateful for all his contribution and the great pleasure it gave us.
                      Have this “Oh, no. Please don’t” feeling I had when KK left. But from all good experience we have long known: there is always a next level. Again and again. Round and round and round we go…

                            Yes. Spacebandit did a recording.

                              (First four songs acoustic.

                              On A Plate as first encore on the setlist but not played.)

                                So good to see them on the ride again. Even if the setting reminds a little bit on Motörhead playing german TV show "ZDF Fernsehgarten" 1981 https://youtu.be/1XUlEBAZnbY

                                Those folks definitely had a blast!

                                  As you might know this show was recorded by the german radio station Deutschlandradio for a future broadcast. Here is a little snippet from the mixing session provided by Tim Schauen of Deutschlandradio via facebook.
