> Loneliness is either Haarlem '09 or Dresden '08
> (on the Haarlem bootleg it segues into Cornucopia
Definitely Haarlem, because of the transition into Cornucopia.
So the Alchemyst ist from Bremen, I guess. It didn´t take too much magic to produce this smooth transition between KDH and Alchemyst.
Yeah I'm leaning towards Haarlem myself now.
But there is no bootleg from Dresden '08, so we don't know how long Loneliness was that night.
So until I have it in my hands, I won't totally dismiss Dresden '08 :mrgreen:
Looky here:
"Skronk" is a term coined by Robert Christgau (or at least Lester Bangs attributed it to him in his "A Reasonable Guide to Horrible Noise") to describe the music made by musicians in the late '70s art-punk movement No Wave (i.e. DNA, Teenage Jesus and the Jerks, etc.), and like-minded noisy or 'difficult' pieces of music.
Intrepid – brave, fearless.
Now thát is a good explanation of the title! Btw, Stickfrau posted this on Twitter an hour ago:

Lots of packages full of loud goodness are making their way around the world right now.
:MPD:
from amazon.de (release date: 29.04.2011 sic!):
"Letzter Teil der Live-Anthologie der norwegischen Rockband.
Mit der vierten und letzten Ausgabe aus ihrer "Roadwork"-Serie führen uns Motorpsycho durch das Europa der Jahre 2008 bis 2010. Es ist das erste Livealbum in der Triobesetzung mit Snah Ryan, Bent Sæther und Kenneth Kapstadt. Da es schwierig war, ein geeignetes komplettes Konzert aus der Zeit ausfindig zu machen, besann man sich auf moderne Studiotechnik und bastelte sich eine Chronologie aus den Höhepunkten der Touren seit dem Einstieg von Kenneth Kapstad als Schlagzeuger 2007. Wir hören ein lebendiges, schnaubendes, PS-starkes Muscle-Car von einer Rockband, die ihre eigenen Grenzen auszuloten scheint und gleichzeitig ein neues Bandgefühl entwickelt. Die Spannung jedenfalls ist auf jeder dieser Aufnahmen spürbar, denn allen Songs ist eins gemein: sie unterscheiden sich sehr von den Versionen auf den Studioalben. So wird aus "All Is Loneliness", einem akustischen Fünfminuter vom Album "Demon Box", ein 18-minütiges Elektrikmonster. Der kryptische Titel "Intrepid Skronk" spricht also für sich, doch wer sich davon nicht abschrecken lässt, wird einiges entdecken."
it sasys it's the last roadworks…

it could mean "latest" but then it's expressed in a unclear way…you could for example write "Mit der vierten und BIS JETZT letzten Ausgabe aus ihrer "Roadwork"-Serie"…but the first sentence "Letzter Teil der Live-Anthologie der norwegischen Rockband." seems to be quite nmistakable…let's hope that they are wrong…
There shouldn´t be any discussion, dear amazon, cause this point is very clear.
quote from rw4:
"new volumes will be added when and only whenever material found to be of high enough quality is recorded"
Just came home from work, and what is it that the postman has brought? Oh yeah. The Rune/Royal Mail combo delivers fast & early in the UK. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll have to listen for a bit.
And now I have listened for a while. Oh my oh my, where to start? My head's buzzing, it is a lot to take in. This is jamfeast. This is Snahfeast. The record's motto BENTISLOUDKENNETHISFASTBUTONLYSNAHISGOD is quite fitting… It is a lot of great guitarwork here, a lot. A lot of great singing as well, sometimes quite low in the mix. A lot of subtlety you won't pick up on audience recordings, or even live, including pedal operated mellotrons etc. Highlights? AIL of course, is guaranteed to blow your mind. The Alchemyst is extremely well played, and that groove, with Snah on top? Holy… Wishing Well? An acoustic little ditty it is not.
Time for a whisky and another listen. This is great stuff guys.
