Understand

We study the electrical response of a wide class of strange metal phases without quasiparticles at finite temperature and charge density, with explicitly broken translational symmetry, using holography.

The low frequency electrical conductivity exhibits a Drude peak, so long as momentum relaxation is slow.
The relaxation time and the direct current conductivity are exactly equal to what is computed, independently of holography, via the memory function framework.
