btw which genius created that gif?
A little more info from Rune Grammofon about the new album
Quote:
One would think that after the “GullvÃ¥g Trilogy†– two double and a single album in a mere three years – this ultra productive trio might be in need of a break of sorts… but on the other hand, riding a golden wave like never before in their 30+ year existence, why stop now? Especially when constantly upping their own quality standards.
The bulk of the album was recorded in France back before the pandemic, but was added to, expanded, tweaked and eventually finished last year. The initial idea was to collect big riffs on one album and do a pure hard rock record, but the objective changed along the way as they rediscovered their folkish bent and how this lighter touch gave it all a nice contrast. That said, the main musical thrust is pretty full-on, even by Motorpsycho standards.
Kingdom of Oblivion was mixed by Andrew Scheps and produced by Bent Sæther.
Reine Fiske guests on several tracks.
Cover art is by Sverre Malling and cover design is by HÃ¥vard Gjelseth.
But still no tracklist, aargh! (also: ordered!!!)
120 NOK extra just for a different colour? Am I missing something here?
At Rune Grammofon it is 150 NOK extra for the clear vinyl.
Tracklist:
Sporliste:
1. The Waning (pt. 1&2)
2. Kingdom of Oblivion
3. Lady May
4. The United Debased
5. The Watcher
6. Dreamkiller
7. Atet
8. At Empire´s End
9. The Hunt
10. After The Fair
11. The Transmutation of Cosmoctopus Lurker
12. Cormorant
The Transmutation of Cosmoctopus Lurker has to be a strong
contender for most pretentious MP song title ever :lol:
Apart from that, high hopes as usual for another hi quality
Motorpsychodelic Trip.
When I saw the title The United Debased I remembered the band had played that and another new track at gigs last year. The other was titled The Hornet. I wonder what happened to that – maybe the title changed.
In any case, 12 new tracks should provide an interesting assortment to get stuck into. Can't wait. :MPD:
I see they moved from russian modernism to belgian surrealism. :mrgreen:
Love that photo. They look so… adult.
@fco – Hey, where did that image come from? I love it! And I'm getting increasingly excited about this album, but still over a month to wait! Where's the "single" already? :wink:
Am my posts being banned?
