Dead Vent 7 is the first full length album by
Single Cell Orchestra. It was released in 1995 on
Reflective Records. This album closely resembles a
radio drama, with a variety of actors voicing the roles of a deep-space military crew involved in an
Alien-like
space opera. This tale of spaceships, an unseen enemy, and the participants' eventual demise features narration by Miguel A. Fierro and his friends, as well as Fierro's synthesizer-based bleeps, drones, and rhythms.
In the distant future, a military team is sent to investigate the disappearance of a Dead Vent 7 operative in a vessel that has been overrun by an alien presence.
