ISSN 1721-4467

This is a new episode of This is a magazine in the form of an exclusive sound-object by My Cat is an Alien. This is a music monolith from the Opalio brothers and it is now transmitting across the inner-verse. Turn it around in your mind.

This sound-object is presented in parallel to the unfolding in time and space of the Pink Laser Beam compendium. Image above from the embossed laminate-card picture-disc included with each edition of PLB

Selected Press on My Cat is an Alien
"My Cat is an Alien is the finest two-brother band from Italy since the end of the Great War. Their sounds move through the air the way that a tub of fine Roman butter moves through a circus ape..."
Thurston Moore and Byron Coley (Arthur Magazine)

"The Opalio brothers are among the most talented artists on the planet...Roberto and Maurizio Opalio are the new kings of the solar system, and their reign will be nothing but superb...This is essential music."
Brad Rose (Foxy Digitalis)

"The music MCIAA create sounds different, looks different, smells different, depending on where you are in the room. It's a total dislocation of inputs and outputs and everything else. Put that in your pipe and smoke it."
Byron Coley

"This is proper minimalism, the art of LaMonte Young; only while Young longed desperately for a trance-state, MCIAA start in one and work from there...it is so staggering, so mesmerizing, and makes music on its own terms so definitely, that it has a certain menacing, willfully unpretty, and monolithic grandeur, like some intractable slab of rock, or a vast, empty desert."
Jeff Siegel (Stylus Magazine)

"I can safely say that My Cat Is An Alien genuinely don't sound like anything else in music right now"
Second Layer

"Audio sculptures floating on a tension cable that never loses its way or grows fainter from the first instant to the last. The Beauty of noise in a sum of almost casual gestures."
Vittore Baroni (Rumore)

"If Sun Ra was still with us on this planet, he would certainly be proud of his children."
Tom Sekowski (Gaz-Eta)

"...this is truly music that inhabits the space between the Earth and the Spheres."
Steve Rybicki (Foxy Digitalis)

"MCIAA, yet again, manage to prove that they are leaders in the field of abstract drones and experimental music."
Smallfish (UK)
