Alien Sex Fiend - I'm Doing Time In A Maximum Security Twilight Home

Who says goths don't have sense of humour?

From their own biography: "Paranormal pulsations began to emanate from the environs of North London - a strange and unholy grafting together of percolating synth rhythms and a ghoulish, theatric aesthetic. Primed by Nik Fiend's phantasmagoric vocals, Mrs Fiend's highly original use of trippy drum machines and inscrutable electronic gear became a trademark - often imitated, never duplicated."

So there you go - prototype dark electronica from the mid 80s. Could I even go as far as to say that tracks B2 & B3 wouldn't sound out of place on some of The Corridor stuff I've been posting of late? Aye! Why the fuck not *awaits backlash*...

They became full-on electronic for a bit after this, and ended up doing music for video games in the early 90s. I think they've brought back the guitars of late, but they've been off my radar now for about 20 years.

Another weekend credibility-killer on Ripped In Glasgow...
