Motorpsycho is a Norwegian rock band that was formed in Trondheim in 1989. The original line-up consisted of Bent Sæther, Hans Magnus Ryan, and Kjell Runar Jenssen. They derived their name from a Russ Meyer film and released their first album "Lobotomizer" in 1991. After the departure of Jenssen, Håkon Gebhardt joined as the drummer and remained with the band for 14 years until his departure in 2005 to pursue other projects.
Their music is characterized by its diverse range of styles, incorporating elements of progressive rock, psychedelia, and alternative rock. Over the years, Motorpsycho has gained a loyal following with their unique sound and experimental approach to songwriting.
With numerous albums under their belt, Motorpsycho continues to push boundaries and captivate audiences worldwide with their dynamic live performances. Their enduring presence in the music industry is a testament to their talent and dedication as musicians.

Box Sets

As ever stretching the boundaries of their musical understanding and looking for new ways to express themselves, this is a pretty adventurous album even by Motorpsycho standards. It is easy to hear that both the new environment and the new co-conspirators influenced the band: this sounds nothing like any previous Motorpsycho album! Musically this is in parts the hardest album Motorpsycho has perpetrated in a while, and the material runs the gamut from short and sweet to lengthy and mean - even touching on heavy or stoner rock in places. It certainly is of a rather more explosive nature than most of their last album Here Be Monsters: the sounds are gnarlier and the riffs bigger, and where the last album to some perhaps was a tad too introvert, this album reflects the period it was written and is more concerned with us than me -with changes in society rather than personal issues. These are strange days, and the lyrics reflect this.Surviving yet another change in personnel, Motorpsycho bounces back and shows yet again that the band is bigger than the individual players and that it intends to survive whatever challenges fate throws at it. The Tower, then, is a statement of intent from a band that is very much alive and kicking: this is the start of a new era in the Psychoverse, and the album stands as proof that there’s bite in the old dog yet!
