Motorpsycho
Let Them Eat Cake

Review of Let Them Eat Cake
taken from the Italian magazine
STRUMENTI MUSICALI #230 / April 2000.
English translation done by Sunchild, slightly reworked by the Lighthouse Girl.


Being a band with a rough noisy-psychedelic past, Motorpsycho release an anomalous album for them, which, just in some flashes, gives in to electric intemperances. However, the prevalence of semi-acoustic atmospheres in Sixties' style (with a Beatles or Pink Floyd derivation) doesn't compromise the pleasantness of the songs based on quirky and uncommon arrangements.

The release has been preceded by the cd single release The Other Fool Ep, closer to the usual standards of the Norwegian trio.
