Alien Sex Fiend is a UK band known primarily for their unique blend of gothic rock, psychedelic rock, and electronic music, punctuated by dark humor and macabre theatrics. Formed in London in 1982 by Nik Fiend (Nick Wade) and Mrs. Fiend (Christine Wade), the group quickly became prominent fixtures in the goth and alternative scenes, especially at the famed Batcave club, which is often cited as the birthplace of gothic culture. Their music captivates with a chaotic fusion of synths, drum machines, and distinctive vocals, creating a sound that has both entertained and unsettled audiences across the decades.

With a discography as rich in content as it is in character, Alien Sex Fiend has released a multitude of albums, singles, and compilations. Their body of work, which includes highlights such as "Re-Possessed," "Possessed," and "Death Trip," showcases their evolution while maintaining the irreverent and idiosyncratic nature that fans adore. Even after more than three decades, Alien Sex Fiend remains an influential and enduring force in the post-punk and goth scenes, with their recent releases like "Shit's Coming Down (Monster Mix)" and "Para-Abnormal" continuing to push boundaries and engage listeners with their delightfully ghoulish soundscape.
