Listening to Motorpsycho taught me a lesson today. Norwegians know how to rock! This might sound naive but I thought bands from that neck of the woods were introverted Noise/Ambient meisters. These chaps seem to know their way round a riff. The title track reminds me of Hawkwind in its groove and production. The vocals are caked in reverb and the song gallops along in a very space rock way. The second track got me fully excited.This track sounds like Ozzy or QOTSA with its complicated time signature and thick production. I think I like these guys and they are welcome to marry my sister...

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

A good old 7" single with a nice picture sleeve is of course a thing of beauty and this is no exception. It´s a long time since Motorpsycho released one, so this is a goodie for the fans. The A-side is an edited version of X-3 from Heavy Metal Fruit and I.C.U (boinganoid) on the B-side is a hard hitting rocker from the same sessions.

Please be aware that this one comes in a limited edition of 1000 copies for the world and only on Rune Grammofon.
