      In Oya's 2006 Wheel they did the Dead-Wheel. How often did they do that?

        Thanks for clarifying who Arne H. Was.

        During the Magnolia concert from the HBM tour, Bent introduced the song saying "This song is about a guy and his kayak…you know, that…paddling thing"

        The quiet guitar playing at the beginning of Starhammer always reminds me of City's "Am Fenster".

          @Arturo Bandini, that intro is named "Electric Psalmon" and is also used on The Death Defying Unicorn album.

          @Blashyrkh, never noticed that before but you are right, sounds similar. But nonetheless the intro from Starhammer reminds me of "Am Fenster". Check it out. :wink:

            Do I hear a future Motorpsycho tune here? Thought I recognized the riff somewhere in A.S.F.E:

            Spinal Tap! Harhar…

              While listening to Let Them Eat Cake, in just the right altered state last night, I noticed another musical reference. The opening of Whip That Ghost makes musical reference to the opening of the(short version of the) brilliant Billy Cobham instrumental Stratus.

                Just listen to the first ten seconds of "River" by Gentle Giant:

                  @ Deadnautpsychohead: I don't get it – could be any MP song intro – Ship of Fools – or is it Serpentine? Hard to recognize – it's only a few seconds after all. Enlighten me!

                    I immediately thought of ship of fools…

                      River is 6/8 and Ship of Fools is 7/8 but other than that it's really similar to me. And the connections ship/octopus/river seems to be quite typically Motorpsychic tongue-in-cheek :-) :STG:

                        Exactly what Paolino wrote!

                          Very esoteric – the deep mysteries of progmantics by the Order of the Motorpsychodelic Overservation ;-)

                            What a beautiful way to express it! :D

                              Indeed! If that isn't the title of a university dissertation somewhere, some time in the next five years, I'll be deeply disappointed!
