Description
25th place in the Morgenbladet Top 100 Series.
In the fall of 2011, Morgenbladet and Falck Publishing put together a representative selection of Norwegian recording artists, and let this miniature Norwegian music community vote on their favorite Norwegian albums. The result was a list of one hundred albums, and each of the top ten was honored with a separate book. Motorpsycho's Blissard was number 25 on the list.
Blissard changed Johan Harstad's life. In this book we get the smell, the sound and the feeling of the nineties Motorpsycho's fifth album hit, and experience the subsequent upheavals together with the author. On the other side, Harstad documents in detail the history of Motorpsycho up to 1996, the recording in Atlantis studio, the inspiration and the trials.
In true Motorpsycho fashion, the author also offers something extra: The massive footnote section constitutes a separate universe of technical details, obscure info and cultural references. Welcome, step inside.
The book won the Oslo Prize in 2013 in Natt&Dag's annual award for the year's best book.
Johan Harstad (b. 1979) has written novels, short stories and drama since his debut in 2001. He has won several literary awards, including the Brage Prize in 2008. Harstad's books have been translated into 16 languages.
