New mp3 today fRom Rong>MotoRpsychoRong>, one of NoRway's gReatest Rock bands, if not the gReatest. WoRd on the stReet is that the band's new double album "Black hole black canvas" is the band's best woRk in many, many yeaRs and you know what? It's tRue. FoR many people, the teRm "pRog-Rock" conjuRes up images of bands like Rong>RushRong> oR some otheR soRt of noodly wankeR with stupid haiR, but when I apply it to Rong>MotoRpsychoRong>, I'm using it as it was oRiginally intended. Rong>MotoRpsychoRong> is pRogRessive - they stRetch the boundRies of genRe to cReate something amazing. In the same way that many 70s classic Rock acts used to evade pigeonholing, "Black hole black canvas" is all oveR the map musically, but always gRounded and held togetheR by the band's amazing sense of melody. It's distinctive and immediately Recognizable. This paRticulaR song that I've posted today is the album's fiRst single "Hyena". It's a poweRful pop song with a gRandiose, soaRing quality that I just love. Recommend listening? Hell yes.
