Australian psychedelic rock and roll occultists THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION<\/strong> have completed the recording sessions for their forthcoming fourth full-length, \u201cMemoirs Of A Rat Queen\u201d<\/strong>. The album, tracked by bassist Jaytanic Ritual<\/strong> and The Pet Food Factory<\/strong> in Marrkville, Sydney, will be the band\u2019s first for Cruz Del Sur Music<\/strong> and will see the light of day this September.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt took\na while longer than we originally anticipated, which is what we should have\nexpected,\u201d says guitarist Inverted\nCruciFox<\/strong>. \u201cWe try to include a lot of small details that reward headphone-wearing\nlisteners who use our records to travel to alternate dimensions. There has to\nbe enough fuel to accommodate their journey.\u201d
\n
\nAccordingly, the band\u2019s blend of progressive, metal and space rock will be on\nfull display on their new album, sure to please followers of the band. \u201cIt\nfeels a bit different, yet a natural progression, which was the aim,\u201d says CruciFox<\/strong>. \u201cI feel like we have paid\nour sonic respects to QUEEN<\/strong>, MOT\u00d6RHEAD<\/strong>, T-REX<\/strong> and many others.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since The Pet Food Factory<\/strong> is run by Ritual<\/strong>, there is a certain sense of\nfamiliarity with the studio\u2019s confines. CruciFox\n<\/strong>says that other underground acts in Sydney often benefit from \u201cresidual\nmagicks leftover by [vocalist] The\nImperial Priestesses<\/strong>\u2019 occasional presence there.\u201d Therefore, it is little\nsurprise the rest of THE NEPTUNE POWER\nFEDERATION<\/strong> takes cues from their imitable frontwoman. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are few specific recollections of the process,\u201d notes CruciFox<\/strong>. \u201cWe simply present at the\nstudio and swiftly fall under the thrall of the Imperial Priestess<\/strong> who conducts the music through us via mind\ncontrol. There is a feeling of disorientation and euphoria followed by shock\nthat 12 months has passed and the album is complete.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With \u201cMemoirs Of A Rat Queen\u201d<\/strong> now in the bag, all CruciFox<\/strong> and his THE NEPTUNE POWER<\/strong> FEDERATION <\/strong>bandmates can do is bide their time until it\u2019s unleashed upon the unwitting metal masses. \u201cWe are awaiting the response of the ancient ones \u2014 a centuries-old council of mystic faeries who determine which of the new songs shall be added to the set. It\u2019s an unconventional approach, but we stand by our methods.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
