"Original soundtrack from Roberto Opalio's film 'Alien Blood' (2005-2008), currently shown at SONIC YOUTH etc.: SENSATIONAL FIX museum exhibition, opened at LiFE museum (France) in June 2008, and already scheduled around the globe for the next couple of years. The improvised score by My Cat Is An Alien follows the minimal and surrealistic beginning of the film with sparse echoes of eerie sounds, growing in dark timbres and pathos. Maurizio Opalio's heavily effected 'blood percussions' compress the air, while Roberto's wordless vocals, along with his space toys, alientronics & mini-keyboard are on the razor-edge of another dimension. The finale comes as one of the most epic crescendos ever performed by the Italian duo. One of the most impressive and innovative MCIAA's recordings to date. Special only-vinyl edition limited to 220 on the mighty Opax Records imprint." (label press)
