Classic Albums Volume 3 - The 13th Moon Years

• THE THIRD IN THE SERIES OF ALIEN SEX FIEND ALBUMS BOX SETS.

• COVERING THE BAND’S 13TH MOON RECORDS YEARS, 1996-PRESENT.

• WITH 13 PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED TRACKS + SIX TRACKS NEVER BEFORE ON CD!

• SLEEVENOTES AND GRAPHICS BY NIK AND MRS FIEND.

• CURATED BY THE ALIEN SEX FIEND, IN ASSOCIATION WITH CHERRY RED.

Following an eleven-year, ten studio album run on Anagram / Cherry Red, in 1996 Alien Sex Fiend cut loose, establishing their own 13th Moon Records label. Over the following two decades, the band released a selection of wonderfully intense albums, EPs and remixes, which are gathered together here for the first time, alongside over a dozen unreleased tracks.

Compiled and overseen by the inimitable Nik and Mrs Fiend, this latest volume in the classic albums series brings together four studio albums, material from the 13th Moon 10th Anniversary sampler album ‘Para-Abnormal’ plus the digital only ‘re-Possessed’ EP, as well as excellent unreleased material exhumed from the band’s extensive archive.

Paired with their own recollections and Nik’s eye-catching graphics spanning the entire period, ‘Classic Albums Volume 3’ is a fascinating window into a period in Alien Sex Fiend’s career which saw them go it alone and create their music without external interference, dealing directly with every step of the process, from recording to art and design to sales and distribution. Common practise in the 21st Century, but unexpected and somewhat revolutionary in the mid-1990s, and a path which took the band on their second trip on the rock ‘n roll rollercoaster, taking in encounters with headline festival stages and a whole new generation of producers influenced by their sound and aesthetic.

A must for fans and collectors of the band’s entire career, and especially for those who may be unfamiliar with these later period recordings. As ever, Nik’s lysergic psychotherapy lyrics and Mrs Fiend’s thunderous analogue soundscapes combine perfectly time and again, always familiar and yet always different.
