Motorpsycho was founded in 1989 in Trondheim, Norway´s third biggest city, when mainstays Bent Sæther (bass, vocals) and Hans Magnus “Snah” Ryan (guitar, vocals) were joined by drummer Kjell Runar ”Killer” Jenssen. The first album, “Lobotomizer”, was released in 1991 after which Killer quit and Håkon Gebhardt took over the drums for many years to come. Gebhardt left in 2005 before the recording of ”Black Hole / Blank Canvas” where Bent and Snah did most of the drumming themselves. With ”Little Lucid Moments” they have a new, permant drummer; Kenneth Kapstad (also a member of Animal Apha and Monolitich and has played with Dadafon and Gåte and others).

With “Demon Box” from 1993, Motorpsycho were already laying down the blueprint for much of the stoner psychedelia that would spawn a number of bands many years later. Today it´s more difficult to put a tag on Motorpsycho or to name any obvious influences; there are traces of west coast psychedelia, krautrock, punk, minimalism, improv, prog rock and more, all melting into that easily identifiable and unique Motorpsycho sound developed through more than 15 years of recording and touring. After having flirted with popstructures and expanded instrumentation on a couple of albums, they are now back with four long, energetic and evolving tracks clocking in between 11 and 21 minutes being what most hardcore fans, and there are many, will consider classic Motorpsycho in full flight. There´s also no doubt that the excellent new drummer has brought a new dimension to the band with his jazz background and energetic style.

Helge Sten, aka Deathprod, has at various times from “Demon Box” in 1993 to “It´s A Love Cult” from 2002 been associated member, guest musician or producer. He´s back as a co-producer of ”Lucid Little Moments”. And Kim Hiorthøy has done all (studio) album sleeve design for Motorpsycho since ”Timothy´s Monster” in 1994.

The album was recorded by Helge Sten and mixed by Jørgen Træen (Jaga Jazzist, Sondre Lerche). Mastering was by US mastering guru Bob Katz.
