My Cat is An Alien — Greetings From The Great Void

Greetings From The Great Void finds us once more drifting and invesgating strange star systems via the Opalio brothers intergalactic rich droning come (off) world music. From the openers cascading star tunnel tones  right  untill the last moments of the exit tracks melancholy ritual space float, your utterly transfixed and lost in the sounds here .

The album seems almost deeper and  more meditative than there other albums . It’s like looking a endless star corridor or a slowly swirling black hole, that just seems to stretch on further than the eye can see. Other parts seem to conjure up visions of  a visit to a strange blue and purple planet, it’s a expanse of  blue sand deserts and water logged jungles, plant live slow untangling and tangling it’s self. The planet is inhabited by a deeply religious people who live in strange black wood huts above the watery jungle floor. The slowly turning sad  early Tangerine Dream drones of Here on a sad planet, seem to indicate an escape from a dieing planet, as it spins off towards a huge sun. Next The title track  mixes slowly unfolding medative air, licked by the sound  of water and strange alien hovering chants which almost seem to  be calling to you, as your craft touches down into the canopy of the jungle. As the track develops it becomes denser, as if your been led from your craft out into a tapestry of different shaped and coloured faces, strange birds chatter and hover above  you. Near half way point the sound becomes less opening – you feeling like your been led into a vast hall, as slowly ominous percussion unfolds and sinister folds of guitar and space instruments echo. Soon the percussion and other elements become more hectic and almost frantic as the halls walls are  twitching and sucking in  and out. As the track exits your led back out of the hall into the calmer world of the jungle. And that’s just the first tow tracks ?!.

The rest of the album is made up of another tow shorter tracks  at 5 minutes a piece, and another large painted sound canvas of  near on 25 minutes which is  a return to less grounded terrority and more endless space floating as spacey gitar tone unfolding on for every. I wont say anymore, as it'll ruin your own personal jouney into the stars. But trust me  if you enjoy drone, ambient or rich sound world recordings, you to need to buy this now. Yet another perfect star lined trip. To buy direct and  find more about the band  drift into this star system.
