MOTORPSYCHO is what’s on many of your minds these days. At the moment the band is on the road in Norway with their amazing new drummer Kenneth Kapstad. He seems to be impressing the hell out of most people and Bent and Snah have called him “a keeper” as well. Other than tonight in Oslo, you also have a chance to see them in Den Haag on the 15th. The band is also busy working on new material both in and out of the studio and we’re very excited about that!

And the Motorpsycho DVD? Yes, I have something to announce about that as well. (Can you tell I’m enjoying dragging this out?) It’s *this* close to being done and the only thing keeping me from giving you the release date is the fact that it is being sent in to be scrutinized by a possibly quite unenthusiastic government official for the “age rating” and we’re not sure exactly how long that will take. As the “f-word” is said only once (we counted) and there is no political dodginess, ultra-violence or nudity taking place, we’re sure that even the youngest of you will soon be allowed to get the DVD from the store of your choice without having to drag your mother along (because how uncool is that?).

But no fear, this is all happening within the next several weeks and we are planning on releasing it in early 2008. In order to give you something solid: the title of the DVD is “Haircuts”. And when you watch all the videos that have been recorded through the years the title makes a lot of sense.

The DVD will be followed by the release of a new album by our german/swiss band MONOCHROME.  The album title is not confirmed yet, but the recordings are as good as finished. We’ve heard three of the poppier songs so far, and they’re excellent. Great melodies and unmistakably Monochrome. You can expect a lot of touring from them in 2008. Don’t know Monochrome?

And before signing off, I’d like to direct your attention to the fact that we’re having a 25%-off-everything sale through the mailorder. It’s our warehouse-move-meets-annual-Christmas-sale and will continue until the end of the year.
