"In the tied-off-and-throbbing tradition of Spacemen 3, The Strange Attractors mine the hazy gloaming between life and death with their pulsating psych-rock. "--The Onion
"The drone is supposed to take you to a different place than where you're at," offers guitarist and vocalist Jeremy Diaz. Following the demise of Dallas' Dead Sexy and Hot Rails, Diaz and fellow vocalist and guitarist Kevin Pearce descended upon Austin in the summer of 2005. The quartet's self-recorded and self-titled debut, originally intended to be demos, is one of the strongest local efforts this year, sounding at times like a darker and more claustrophobic Spaceman 3, with cryptic social commentary bleeding through the fog. "It's a byproduct of the times," says Pearce. "We focus on things that people don't necessarily like to think about or acknowledge." Diaz takes it one step further: "It's supposed to be a little uncomfortable for the listener." – Austin Powell

The Strange Attractors
(Rare Dust)
The storm gathers overhead, a bad omen lingering in the midnight air. "The world has moved again and left me off the beat," bellows the Strange Attractors' Kevin Pearce midway through "Under the Gun," as a haze of psychedelic guitars morph into smoke and fire and blacken the lungs. "Let go of everything that you know." Staring into the abyss, the Strange Attractors embrace just such chaos, exposing the darkness underneath the glam rock that defined their former outfit, Dead Sexy. The Austin quartet's eight-song debut rings gloom and doom, coursing a hypnotic undercurrent of hedonism and nihilism in the tradition of the Stooges and Velvet Underground. Opener "Bohemian Groove" lays the foundation of what follows: a swirling drone of textured guitars and rapturous drums, easily mistaken for the Black Angels, only darker, faster. "Revolutionary Suicide" and "Dark Star Serenade" bring the thunder, only eclipsed by closer "Day of Illumination."
Transcendence, anxiety, paranoia, botanical substances, hedonism, liberation of the mind from the body, liberation of the body from the soul, radical action, and time travel...we are possessed by these things...we cannot be held accountable for how they will affect you. but we will be glad to make some suggestions. --TSA
