 Vantage Point ends up being probably the group’s least inspired and significant work, but for this reason, not to be underestimated because it still has something to say.

 His warm and hoarse voice remains the soul of the group, devoid for years of the members who once filled everything with jazz strokes.

This review assesses dEUS' 2008 album Vantage Point as a solid and honest effort, though less inspired than their earlier masterpieces. It highlights Tom Barman’s distinctive vocals and notes the shift away from previous jazz influences. The album is praised for craftsmanship but critiqued for lacking standout tracks.

 Motorpsycho has been, for almost 15 years, the greatest form of sonic pleasure for me.

 Let’s stop with this story that 'they are back.' Demon Box, Timothy’s Monster, Blissard... are the past.

The review by a longtime Motorpsycho fan reflects a mix of appreciation and disappointment. ‘Little Lucid Moments’ impresses with strong musicianship and energy, especially thanks to drummer Kenneth Kapstad. However, it falls short of the passion and creativity found in their seminal records from the '90s. The album leans heavily into hard rock and prog elements, appealing to fans of the 70s style but less so to those who cherish the band's earlier melodic and emotional depth. Ultimately, the review expresses nostalgic regret rather than outright rejection. Discover Motorpsycho’s evolving sound—listen to ‘Little Lucid Moments’ and explore their legendary past today!

 The sounds... at times cardboard-like, at others soft (but in those cases, it’s the melody that softens them), on almost exclusively mid/high frequencies.

 "'Strings' is a psychedelic music box that makes the listener hope that something will change eventually, and once the song is assimilated, I understand that it all makes sense, and what a sense it makes."
