Brace yourself for a trip through time and sound as Dust Mice drops their latest mind-bending music video, “Archimedes Death Ray.”
The track is a standout from the band’s highly anticipated upcoming album, “Room Within A Room,” set to be released on January 26 via Epictronic.
“Archimedes Death Ray” delves into the cycles of history and destruction, characterized by layers of distortion and repetition. The sound retains the band’s signature Space Rock and Garage roots but with a darker edge.

Dust Mice started in a cramped practice space in the Pacific Northwest with the intent to create a sound and vision of Psych-tinged Space Rock. In the following years, they released 2 EPs (Dust Mice, Moon Fetus), and their first full-length album (Earth III).
“Room Within A Room” is their 2nd album; recorded over the course of 2022 as they put the shards of pandemic-shattered lives back together. Although Dust Mice has developed their own distinct sound, they always return to their influence from the true Masters of the Universe and at Hawkfest ’22 Dust Mice had the honor of sharing the stage with Hawkwind.
Tragically, original drummer Zane Graham left this realm on his own cosmic journey at the end of 2022. The songs on “Room Within A Room” are his final recordings with Dust Mice; a summation of his time in the band and a lasting legacy of his contributions.
Dust Mice are currently writing material for their next album and continue to perform live, regularly in the Seattle area.
