Fueled by a distaste for all that is mainstream, Mike Leporte formed his own one-man band as an outlet for a dizzying array of cosmic noise. The name of this intriguing new project is Used Alien Mind, and that unique moniker is accompanied by plenty of unique noise. 
“Positive Mental Theme is so irresistibly peculiar and, yeah, fun. Your normal friends will hate it!” -Jim Santo’s Demo Universe 

“Brooding lo-fi noise and fractured left field indie pop…he sings like a broken amplifier.” -Splendid 

“UAM’s Mike Leporte takes the listener into dark corners, sunlit playrooms, and interstellar journeys…this music is for head-tripping.” -Culture Bunker 

“I love albums that take me by surprise.” -Space City Rock 

Used Alien Mind’s second album, “The Placement Aside” offers a cosmic kaleidoscope of experimental noise-pastiche-blues-art-rock leanings; a slight departure from his punk-rock infused solo debut, “Positive Mental Theme”. Used Alien Mind’s new album is stylistically eclectic as a result of collaborating with long-time friends Jon Wohl, Robert Wohl, Pete Weiss and newcomer Katie Beckman on many of the songs. The album’s distinctive sound is also due in part to working in different studios, and using a mixture of lo-fi and high-end recording equipment. The end result creates a brooding, hazy array of sound collages and musical landscapes. Kick back, throw on the head phones, light up and dig the space grooves. Zonked Records

In the distant Subert Humlin, Gory Rallagher, Sank Frinatra, and Dats Fomino Galaxies, Her Majesty's Royal Intergalactic Empire is under siege by the sinister Khazargonians and their elite squads of shock troopers- the Jearl Pamians and Goundsardenians. Her Majesty has commissioned an elite force led by her three of Her Majesty's Space Navy's finest officers with several primary objectives, chief among them was the following directive: to combine the great tones of surf and fifties rock... with disco!
These elite officers are:  Admiral Krank of the SS Belgrade (Guitar, bass, beats, intergalactic espionage and assassination by exploding cigars); and Captain Mirth of the SS Zagreb- (Guitar, piano, synth, beats, and advanced thermal detonation). And our very own clockwork man on the drums, Mo Sheen (https://soundcloud.com/user-424452711).  Unfortunately, despite bravely serving Her Majesty's Space Navy, Vice Commandant Dubois has been court martialed and convicted for conduct not befitting an officer and counterfeiting baseball cards, stripped of his command of the SS Budapest, and dishonorably discharged from Her Majesty's Space Navy, though certain recordings of his guitar, synth, bass, beats, and forward deployable laser blasters remain here memorialized for posterity. Let it be known that though he has sunk to the very depths of ignominy, we wish him well in his new venture, the Spandex Spanktroverse.
