Motorpsycho

Motorpsycho is a band from Trondheim in Norway. Their music can generally be defined as psychedelic rock, but they also mix in elements from metal, jazz, rock, pop and many other musical styles. The members of the band are Bent Sæther (bass/vocals) and Hans Magnus "Snah" Ryan (guitar/vocals). Håkon Gebhardt (drums) left the band in March 2005 to concentrate on solo projects (as Gebhardt) and his new band HGH.
Kenneth Kapstad, drummer, joined Motorpsycho as a full member late in 2007.

Their new double-CD "Black Hole/Blank Canvas" was released 17th/20th march 2006 in Europe, but it was leaked on the internet prior to this date. The album has been getting great reviews, and it is considered one of their best albums ever, proving the skills of the arguably most innovative Norwegian band of the last decade. Bent Sæther plays drums on this record, except on the track "You Loose", which is played by Jacco van Rooij who also played drums for the band on a short tour in spring 2006.

In activity since 1990, Motorpsycho have released 10 full length albums, as well as a number of ep's, a couple of live albums, and some side-project releases. Over the years, they moved from their initial mixture of metal, grunge and hardcore music, playing almost any kind of musical genre: indie, pop, psych rock, lo-fi, stoner, avantgarde, classic hard rock, acoustic, fusion, jazz rock.

2008 will see the release of their latest album, "Little Lucid Moments", containing 4 songs lasting between 11-21 minutes. Date of release is March 28th in Europe, March 31st in Norway. The release will be followed by a European tour in April and May 2008.
