Review by Mark Pape

Cosmic Debris Volume I by My Cat Is An Alien Text Of Light is a unique and mesmerizing album that takes the listener on a cosmic journey through experimental sounds and textures. The album features a blend of ambient, drone, and noise music, creating a dreamy and otherworldly atmosphere.

The tracks on Cosmic Debris Volume I are complex and intricate, featuring layers of ethereal guitar and synth sounds, punctuated by bursts of distorted noise and feedback. The album's experimental nature is evident in the use of unconventional instruments and techniques, such as bowed guitar and prepared piano.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Invisible World of the Cosmic Debris," which features haunting vocals and a hypnotic, repetitive guitar riff. Another highlight is "The Strange Attractor," which builds slowly to a chaotic crescendo of distorted noise and feedback.

My Cat Is An Alien have set up multimedia collaborations with vanguards such as , , , , , , , , (), , , (), , and many more. and wrote on Arthur Magazine, "Italy's MY CAT IS AN ALIEN is the finest two-brother band from Italy since the end of the Great War." MCIAA's first live show was supporting Sonic Youth in 1998. Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth is a fan and has collaborated with the duo and released some of their material on his own record label. Multi-instrumentalists, My Cat Is An Alien primarily play electric and acoustic guitars, self-made string instruments, various toy instruments (so-called 'space toys'), modified electronics ('alientronics') and a wide set of percussion.
