MADRID VENUE - Due to some unexpected construction work the Copernico venue will be shut on May 9th, so the Alien Sex Fiend show has been moved to the bigger - & I'm told - even better venue Sala Heineken - the promoter apologises for any inconvenience caused to anyone. Any tickets already purchased for the Copernico will still be valid for the Sala Heineken.

"But that's nothing compared with the manic nightmare that is Alien Sex Fiend... I doubt, in fact, that I've ever heard anything uglier in the name of music - a cult following seems assured" Colin Irwin, Melody Maker, September 1982

Emerging from the sweaty environs of the notorious "Batcave" club in London's sleazy Soho in 1982 and now celebrating their 25th year, Alien Sex Fiend take their crazed live "Greatest Hits" anniversary show into an unsuspecting Spain with dates on May 9th in Madrid, May 10th in Valencia & May 11th in Barcelona, before a coast to coast tour of the U.S. in June. With the outrageous sounds of Mrs Fiend's bastard beats and killer keyboards driving the insane antics of singer, Nik Fiend, the gruesome twosome will be aided and abetted by the mysterious Gonzo, guesting on wig-city guitar.

Fifth on the list of artists with the most indie single chart entries, Alien Sex Fiend will be blasting out songs spanning their entire career. From early hits like "R.I.P." and "I Walk The Line", MTV's Beavis and Butthead classic "Now I'm Feeling Zombiefied", through to their soon-to-be unleashed monster of a new single "One Way Ticket To Venus". Along with a ghoulish spider-webbed stage set, comprising mutilated mannequins, body parts, skulls, bones and garbage cans, the hair raising Alien Sex Fiend Live Experience is a total audio visual assault.

WARNING! Faint-hearted and closed-minded beware - neither God nor exorcism can help you now.

Nik & Mrs Fiend write :
Rumours have been flying around for some time about this tour & at last dates are getting confirmed... as you can imagine we are extremely excited at the prospect of getting back to the U.S. of A after sooooo long.....!!!! We had wanted to hold off on releasing this news until things were more concrete with a full list of all definite cities & venues but things are moving along very quickly with tickets starting to be released so we wanted to let you know whatever news we have RIGHT NOW.... so below are the current dates...

If your town or city isn't on the listing, and we don't make it to your particular neck o the woods, we're sorry but we ARE travelling a helluva long way to come over, so you'll have to meet us half way, wontcha? ... it's taken SO long to get this tour happening & gawd knows when we'll get back to the U.S. again, so DON'T MISS IT this time around!

Even more good news is they should all be "ALL AGES SHOWS" other than Chicago & Detroit!

OTHER U.S. TOUR INFORMATION - updated 05 May 2008

Remaining dates - The San Francisco date is the only one still awaiting full confirmation. It is now very unlikely that the Washington DC & Portland shows will happen & no other dates will now be added.

San Francisco - Regency Ballroom - this venue has been chosen because the DNA Lounge (a well known SF venue) has been subjected to a change in its fire regulations & its capacity has been reduced as a result but more importantly that venue has now become a 21+ venue, & the tour promoter is doing his utmost to secure ALL AGES shows at ALL venues. I have also been told by an ASF News list member that they had a tour of the Regency Ballroom after its restoration and re-opening as the venue that it is now. They said that the ballroom is amazing with great acoustics & a theatre type vibe that will be fantastic with the environment that Alien Sex Fiend create on-stage.

Chicago / Detroit - These are 18+ shows due to the licensing laws. There would be a curfew at 10pm if it was under 18 & that would mean starting the show at about 6pm!

Mexico - The promoter did try to get a show in Mexico added after the Los Angeles date, but it didn't work out.

VIP Packages - These will be available for all shows.

Other cities - The Fiends & the promoter are sorry but there will not be any shows in Canada. Boston has proved difficult in locating a good venue, now that the Manray has closed, so there will not be a show there. The only Florida show is Ft Lauderdale, rumours about Jacksonville are simply rumours. Excepting confirmation of San Francisco, no further dates will be added, due to the routing of the tour a number of days need to be kept free for travelling. This is the best that the promoter has been able to come up with, & he's done a good job, especially bearing in mind the great distances that need to be covered in a limited period of time. And even more so, the fact that this is a totally independent tour, without record company support or back up. These dates are more than has happened for 10 years, so even though they may not be perfect because ASF aren't coming to your particular city, let's not look a gift horse in the mouth, & start making your travel plans now!

As soon as I have any further news I will post the information up here & I will send an "ASF News" email to all my subscribers. Subscribe here

ALIEN SEX FIEND  INTERVIEW
in SPAIN'S POPULAR1 MAGAZINE

You may remember back last year that I told you about Spanish magazine Popular1 - in their words "the best spanish rock and roll magazine" - who conducted a fiendish interview, that was originally intended to be part of a feature on post punk and goth rock along with other bands like Bauhaus, Killing Joke, The Mission & Mick Harvey, etc, but the journalist loved Alien Sex Fiend & their replies so much that he got on to his Editor to give more pages over to the ASF article? Well that article has finally appeared in the APRIL issue #414 of the magazine.

This is great timing with the 3 Alien Sex Fiend shows coming up in May.
