The 24th album from this band from Norway.
The band was a trio with a lineup of percussion, drums, bass, guitars, mandolin, violin, keyboards and vocals.
I have by now learnt that I should expect the unexpected from this band. This band is as predictable as... well, I don't know anything as unpredictable as Motorpsycho.
Hence, the headscratching starts from the first tone. The first tone and indeed the first half of this seventy minutes long album gives us this blend of garage and psych rock the band has made their own.
The music is mid tempo and pretty rough. Their garage rock influences comes to the surface here, loud and clear.
There is a lot of interesting details here.
The last part of this album has got some ambient stuff which is fairly good but mostly falls flat on it's face. This too is a part of the Motorpsycho identity. Expect the unexpected.
The vocals and sound is good. The songs are good and this is a good album. It is not one of their best albums but it is still an album well worth checking out.
