My Cat Is An Alien's new surprising master work is a concept-album split with their side project Praxinoscope. As always, in a world full of compromises, MCIAA represent fierce independence and complete freedom. Take Roberto's own words in the liner notes as the best introduction to this work:
"One day we realized it was no more possible to discern archaic art and post-modern art in our palette; it was clear that they were both reflected in the same hall of mirrors. In other words, alien art and archaic art are the same thing. All archaic art deals with death, sex, transcendence and Eternity.We're all living days suspended in the Void. The difference is in consciousness: this is real artists' duty. Beyond and other than this, only oblivion."

Like some kind of droned out Sun Ra, My
Cat Is An Alien landed and stayed only long enough to
drop off the masters and the artwork at Important Records
before vanishing into the cosmos, or Torino, once again.
This new full-length album was recorded April 2005 at MCIAA's Alien Zone, located in a remote region of the Western
Alps, Piemonte, Italy. The work consists of three tracks entitled
"Section I-II-III" for a total lenght of 49:20 minutes. |
