Motorpsycho - The all is one

Format: Vinyl / CD / Digital
Length: 84:47
Genre: Prog Rock
Origin: Trondheim, Norway

"The all is one" is the final part of the Gullvåg trilogy. A giant opus of almost one and a half hours of Progressive and Psychedelic Rock. Wrapped up in a fantastic artwork by Håkon Gullvåg, 13 songs fill either two CDs or two LPs. And there is much more. "The all is one" is not just an album; it actually contains the journey to extraterrestial spheres "N.O.X. ∞” which fills the B- and the C-Side while the album itself frames the work.


Bent Sæther (vocals, bass, guitar, keys, drums), Hans Magnus "Snah" Ryan (vocals, guitar, bass, mandolin, keys, violin) and Thomas Järmyr (vocals, drums) create finest and timeless Psychedelic Prog. A timeless masterpiece that makes the audience travel thrugh space, time and even more entities that are not to be named, yet.
Smooth, soft, and yet solid at the same time, giant landscapes of progressive and psychedelic galaxies erase like tidal waves as the band plays. Psychedelic Prog meets Space Rock and merges Jazz with Acid while exploring spiral constellations of unknown universes.

One might say, madness and genius are close to each other. But "The all is one" emerges where those two features team up and create an opulent synergy. A musical experience so unique, it tears down every border of conservative convention. This is another candidate for the album of the year, no doubt!
"The all is one" is a fantastic journey through a whirling calleidoscope, a time-bending, space-erasing odyssey through the stars, reaching into the inner mind.
