ALIEN SEX FIEND
Os Alien Sex Fiend começaram a sua esquisita missão no verão de 1982, no Pais de Gales, quando Nik Fiend (vocalista e letras) e a sua esposa Ms. Fiend (aka Chrissie Wade - sintetizadores/programação), acompanhados de Chiquita, uma banana inflável, decidiram moldar as suas maluquices em forma de música . No inicio tudo era uma grande mistureba de horror B, punk, psychobilly e uma parafernalha de beats sintéticos. Experimentações que conquistaram logo milhares de fãs pelo mundo, inclusive David Bowie que acabou declarando numa entrevista ter ficado“agitado” ao som da banda.
Já nas suas primeiras gravações era possível ouvir e ter sensações estranhas vindas de arrotos, grunhidos, ecstasy, monstros, absurdos caóticos, morbidez, doses etílicas e alucinógenas. Bem, tudo isto também foi possível graças ao apoio de dois elementos que vieram pra completar a banda; Yaxi High-Rizer (aka David James, guitarra - que era vizinho do casal Fiend) e Johnnie Ha-Ha (aka John Freshwater - bateria).
A estréia ao vivo foi no palco do Batcave (no dia 1º de dezembro de 1982). Na realidade nada foi por acaso. Interessado na postura humorada, estética teatral (inspiradíssima em Alice Cooper, homenageado na cover de “School Out”) e na sonoridade do Alien, Ollie Wisdom os chamou para ser uma espécie de banda residente da casa ao lado dos Specimen. Além desta responsabilidade, a sua primeira demo (editada mais tarde na integra em lp e cd em “The Legendary Batcave Tapes”) acabou virando trilha para alguns filmes apresentados por lá.
Esta ênfase ao terror, propositalmente estereotipada e exagerada, fez com que o grupo se firmasse como um dos ícones da cena “gótica”, levada a sério pela maioria da cena mundial. Um contrato com a Anagram Records e em 1983 veio o single “Ignore The Machine” seguido pelo álbum “Who’s Bean Sleeping In My Brain”; item obrigatório, esporro (no sentido sexual da palavra) inicial de uma carreira de 22 anos de pura independência.
O álbum seguinte, “Acid Bath”, foi lançado no Brasil em 1986.
Outra característica marcante dos ASF, é que Nik Fiend faz questão de mostrar os seus dotes de pintor colorindo as suas viagens a cada capa de disco e cartazes dos concertos. Estas obras rendem também diversas exposições. Sem contar com o seu “Fiendzine” , um informativo editado periodicamente, contendo as noticias deste mundo grotesco.
O ponto alto desta fidelidade ao modo desprendido de desenvolver os seus trabalhos, foi quando a banda, no seu 13º aniversário, fundou o próprio selo - a 13th Moon Records pelo qual vem lançando os seus discos que, desde o ambicioso “Inferno” (1994 - com temas para jogos de computador), seguem uma linha mais eletrônica.O seu décimo sétimo álbum, “Information Overload” (2003) apresenta em alguns momentos de peso e sujeira que lembram os tempos áureos da fase antiga.
As ultimas noticias que temos da Nasa é que a nave dos demônios do sexo alienígena continua na Terra. Tudo indica que eles não querem nos abandonar tão cedo e ainda estão dispostos a abduzir os nossos ouvidos com bons sons.
