Alien Sex Fiend’s 35-year goth history to be cataloged on new 3-disc ‘Fiendology’ set

Cherry Red Records this August will release a new 3-disc Alien Sex Fiend anthology that traces the goth pioneers’ 35-year history, and which will include five previously unreleased tracks, including two new songs and unissued mixes of “Now I’m Feeling Zombiefied” and “I Walk the Line.”

The compilation — with the mouthful of a title, Fiendology: A 35 Year Trip Through Fiendish History 1982-2017 A.D. and Beyond — is due out Aug. 25, and includes 37 songs, including remixes, demos and more. The set will feature new artwork by frontman Nik Fiend, including a “collage booklet telling the band’s story in pictures,” and sleevenotes by journalist Kris Needs and Killing Joke’s Youth.

Alien Sex Fiend, which grew out of the famed early-’80s Batcave scene in London, currently features co-founders Fiend (Nick Wade) and Mrs. Fiend (Christine Wade), who are preparing their first new album since 2010’s Death Trip. Two tracks off that record, to be titled Possessed, are included on Fiendology.
