I think one is called Future Of Our Nation. The other one I don't know.

[Rolf]

The titles are "Future of our nation" and "Dominoes". The former is a cover by (after some googling) an Australian band called Master's Apprentices. Very cool song! The original is on youtube: http://youtu.be/X5LMAZD3khY

Btw, did people get the CD in the last package? I only got the final single and cover, no CD.

[ThorEgil]

Yes, CD included – and a final note from the band.

[stereosofa]

CD with all the fragments or further tracks?

All the fragments, yes. No further tracks.

[tkm]

Was not Toys supposed to be on the cd?

[ThorEgil]

@tkm – Toys was never part of the Fragments, and at least I have never seen or heard anyone say that it would be included.

Take a look over here at motorpsycho.no for info on how to get your hands on it.

[supernaut]

Got the final pieces!

So for overview convenience the tracklist would be like this then, I guess:

The Jig Is Up (Kiss The Snake)

Mockingbird

One Way Or Another

Forget It

Cutie In Decay (No Parachute)

Whiskey And Rock N Roll

Future Of Our Nation

Dominoes

[supernaut]

Although I find the 7" presentation very very nice, I'm glad to have the CD included. So I can listen to the whole thing as a non interrupted album experience and it brings out the songs much more this way. Faves are The Jig, Mockingbird and Future of our Nation. That last one is quite odd in its structure, can't really say why though (as if there was any formula to MP…). Is it an original?

As Rolf pointed out earlier in the thread, Future Of Our Nation is a cover by an Australian cult band called Master's Apprentices. Original was released in 1971. Cool tune, and MP does a great cover.

I actually like all of the 7"s except for the third one which disappointed me a bit.

The Jig Is Up, One Way Or Another, Forget It and Future Of Our Nation are my faves.

[kippenhok]

Suppose that's the same band Opeth names one of their songs after

[Emily Grimes]

Forget it is the first ever motorpsycho song my seven year old daughter has been humming along to:)

[supernaut]

thanks otherdemon.

[supernaut]

me too was a bit underwhelmed by the third 7". But after a few listens I now dig the surprising feverish build up in Cutie and WRNR is just stupid great fun.
