Strange music for strange people- buzzy, psych rock meets punk
Editorial review
Uneven and -- at 17 songs -- a bit too long, Positive Mental Theme, the debut long-player by Used Alien Mind, has a number of winning moments just the same. Launched by the ill-fitting retro-punk spank of "Kid Mental," brainchild Mike Leporte does a disservice to listeners even if the Ramones-derived charger is aces. You see, UAM's first offering is an exercise in soundscapes, from the Ride-like mid-tempo blur of "The Dirtbombs" to the space-invaded hallucinogenic rock of "Pale White Face" and "Waiting." The electric buzz beneath "Tomorrow Never Comes" and {"Inside,"} the set's two acoustic-steered high points, recalls everyone from Radiohead to Catherine Wheel, and while he may not change the world of rock, Leporte is a talent worth keeping an eye on. ~ John D. Luerssen, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
Fueled by a distaste for all that is mainstream, Mike Leporte decided to form his own one-man band as an outlet for a dizzying array of cosmic noise that sounds nothing like anything that anyone has ever done before. The name of this intriguing new project is Used Alien Mind, and that unique moniker is accompanied by plenty of unique noise.
Used Alien Mind's debut effort, Positive Mental Theme, is an otherworldly listening experience that does its best to showcase the range of Leporte's musical abilities. "Kid Mental" opens the album with a Ramones-esque blast of distorted punk rock that evokes memories of the genre's early days. But before you get settled into any sort of routine, along comes "The Dirtbombs." This track takes a more mid-tempo and shoe-gazing approach, concentrating less on energetic aggression and more on melodic atmospherics.
