I hadn’t understood how days could be both long and short at the same time: long to live through, maybe, but so drawn out that they ended up flowing into one another. They lost their names. Only the words “yesterday” and “tomorrow” still had any meaning for me.

#192 - The Tower - Motorpsycho (2017)

While it is not all that uncommon to see a trilogy of conceptual albums to be made in prog rock, it is quite uncommon for all three of those albums to be downright masterpieces in my eyes. However, it is not the first time Motorpsycho has crafted a bunch of amazing albums in a row before.

The Tower is the start of the band’s Gullvåg trilogy, which is aptly named after Norwegian artist Håkon Gullvåg, who created the album covers for this trilogy. Right off the bat, the first praise I’ll give to this album is the album cover and how it sets the mood for the entire thing. It is very weird with a lot of disorienting perspectives and odd figures that give the album as a whole a very creepy vibe, and I honestly am all for it. It works very well for the music of Motorpsycho.

On the musical side, Motorpsycho has gone to a similar route they’ve found themselves on with Heavy Metal Fruit, going for a more harder stoner rock sound combined with their psych and prog compositions. Though, for The Tower I can also taste little hints of the more avant garde sounds of The Death Defying Unicorn, especially on tracks like Intrepid Explorer and Ship of Fools. I feel like this is the band combining a ton of different sounds from their past and most notable works, and combining them to create The Tower, and what it delivers really works for me. The interesting jams the band creates mixed with the very proggy side of this album and a heavier sound just really adds to this album’s already amazing songs, and I think only solidifies how truly immaculate this band’s brand of prog really is.

For the concept of this record, I believe the band did not want to go for a full on story like Death Defying Unicorn, but instead similar to something like The Raven That Refused to Sing by Steven Wilson, where it is a bunch of different mini stories that all revolve around a shared theme, as this theme being the tower. I have a theory that this concept was sprouted through the Bible myth of the Tower of Babel, where a group of people who speak on a shared language decides to build a tower to the heavens, however the deity of Yahweh confounded their language and scattered its elements across different lands, causing the birth of many different languages in human history. It could also be represented by The Tower Tarot card, which its upright meaning details sudden change, chaos, and some form of awakening, while its reversed meaning details personal growth, or a more conservative mindset, which could line-up with the band’s sudden changes with their drummer leaving the band, but also the use of more older sounds to create something new. I think, perhaps, The Tower and its stories are not meant to be fictitious tales, but rather tales surrounding the band, their legacy, their image, and who truly are. It is quite interesting to think about and just makes The Tower an even more awesome album.

The Tower showcases not only a conceptual piece of music that desires questions and thoughts, but also showcases a band that is still golden in their long 20+ years. Truly another album for the ages.

5/5

Motorpsycho laget et bestillingsverk inspirert av Håkon Gullvågs kunst til Olavsfest. Verket består av meditasjoner til fire av Håkon Gullvågs malerier, som deretter er satt sammen til en helhet. For å framføre dette fikk de med seg Ola Kvernberg og Lars Horntveth. Og i tillegg videokunstner Boya Bøckman til å illustrere det hele med video, og så basert på maleriene, både bak bandet og på ei gardin foran. Liveimprovisert video som tok det hele til et helt nytt nivå. Musikken starta med lydlandskap som sakte bygde opp til store høyder og ned igjen. Massivt og vakkert. Dette er så komplekse saker at det vil kreve flere runder å fordøye det hele – så la oss håpe at det blir mulig å høre igjen framover. Det var også noe sang inni der, men den forsvant i lydveggen – ihvertfall for meg. Etter det nye verket fikk vi tittelsangene fra de to siste platene The Crucible og The Tower. Disse også har sterk tilknytning til Håkon Gullvåg – Han har levert platecover til begge. Solide versjoner også av disse. Vi får kanskje takke for at de ble spilt i omvendt kronologisk rekkefølge slik at vi fikk den litt optimistiske kjærlighetserklæringen fra The Tower som avslutning.
