8:00 pm - Motorpsycho
The debut-tape (or rather: demo) ‘Maiden Voyage’ by one of our favourite Norwegian bands - Motorpsycho - was released exactly 20 years ago. Motorpsycho still deal in indie-rock with a seriously psychedelic character and bursts of heavy metal, complete with the necessary experiment, pop and even jazz. Their band name hails from the 1965 film of the same name by big-breast king Russ Meyer. In twenty years time the band has written quite an oeuvre. Remember the double-album ‘Demon Box’ (’93), ‘Timothy’s Monster’ (’94) and also ‘Trust Us’ (’98) or ‘Let Them Eat Cake’ (’00)… The band has remained super-active, even in recent years. Remember the album ‘Child Of The Future’ produced by Steve Albini and released last year – on vinyl only – or this year's release ‘Heavy Metal Fruit’ - labelled by the band as a ‘spacerockopera’. Those who have already experienced Motorpsycho live know that the band is always at its best. Considering their collected works, you can be sure to expect a set that will easily exceed 120 minutes …

7:00 pm - Madensuyu
Energetic duo that still consists of Stijn De Gezelle (guitar/bass) and Pieterjan Vervondel (drums). They're mad about Velvet Underground, Pixies and Sonic Youth. Arno is also a fan and already invited them to open for him in a full house called Vorst Nationaal. Producer Peter Vermeersch (Flat Earth Society) sat behind the dials to produce their second album ‘D is Done’. To round off, just this from De Morgen about Madensuyu (Turkish for sparkling mineral water): "Madensuyu has rarely sounded more compelling, disturbing or furious". On top of that, they received a ****-review.

6:00 pm - Radical Slave Growing's European tour didn't work out and, as a result, they won't be opening the triple bill with Motorpsycho that is planned for Sunday 30 May.
But Growing's replacement will be a formidable one: Radical Slave or rather the brand new no-wave project of Dirk Swartenbroekx (BUSCEMI), Maura Pawlowski (dEUS, himself and thousands of other intriguing projects dear to our heart) and Remo Perotti (ex-Bedtime For Bonzo). Swartenbroekx has had this project in mind for a while and now has the opportunity to bring it to life. New York's no-wave scène (late seventies, early eighties) had a huge influence upon the likes of Sonic Youth and the Liars.
