REVIEWS:

“The Opalio brothers are certainly no strangers to uncompromising, indulgent mindfuckery, but their latest effort is extreme even by their own standards. Stretched out across six discs, Roberto and Maurizio use their weird arsenal of homemade instruments and detourned toys to create an absolute monolith of abstract psychedelia. Simultaneously nightmarish, overwhelming, and inspired, My Cat is an Alien have concocted an epic, brain-frying bad trip like no else before. […]” - BRAINWASHED

"I begin and end my journey on the precipice. PSYCHO-SYSTEM is a rumbling beneath me, the deathly choir glinting in the sky, the prophetic creaking of joints prior to breakdown […]
Like an astral projection in process, I am myself and above myself – a becoming, not a stasis – […]
The set encapsulates what has always drawn me to My Cat Is An Alien’s music: the sense of one foot elevated off the floor, leaving the other to quiver and retain a balance that isn’t. […]"
- JACK CHUTER / ATTN:Magazine)

年頭を飾ったのはフィンランドからスパンク(これはコンセプトがかなり複雑)、そして、3月のアイアン・メイデンはともかく、6月にはバート・バカラックとECM、さらにスタイル・カウンシルから秋にはカシーバーと続き、年末にはボブ・ディランが放ったアナログ6枚組みが世界と萩原健太を震撼させた。なかでももっとも興味を引いたのがイタリアのオパーリオ兄弟によるマイ・キャット・イズ・アン・エイリアンで、これが話題の〈テレンスマット〉からリリースされた『エイリアン、オール・トゥー・エイリアン』に続くけっこうな新境地となった。ノイズ・ドローンでもアンビエント・ドローンでもなく、奇妙なほどスタティックで、しかし、トリップ性もある斬新なアプローチである。
