news: MOTORPSYCHO announces new Album „Yay!“

After a series of epic, sprawling and headphones-friendly albums, Motorpsycho is back with a short, reasonably pop-formatted and intimate album of mainly acoustically based songs. The band has just recently announced their forthcoming album, entitled Yay!, for a release on June 16, 2023 via Stickman Records and in Scandinavia & UK through Motorpsycho’s own label Det Nordenfjeldske Grammofonselskab. For once playing the game instead of trying to reinvent it, this 10-song album of tunes is clearly a reaction in some way to too much architecture and too many grand visions, and dials the music down to more comprehensive and digestible sizes than have been the band’s métier lately.

„Yay!“ was produced by Reine Fiske and Lars Fredrik Swahn (Dungen, Melody’s Echo Chamber, The Amazing et al), and their production work brings a sweet Swedish psych edge to the album, giving it a lysergic tinge and charging what could easily have been a bit too ‘’backporchy“ with an electric vibe that lifts it out of the often staid singer/songwriter genre, but still keeping the intimacy intact.
The album pre-sale and a first single release has been announced for May 5, 2023.
