I was in a band with Nik called Mr & Ms Demeanor (not Mrs as Wiki says), back in the Seventies, we only did a few gigs but I remember them well.... Happy days!
Remember people saying "oh its just a fad he/she will grow out of it"? They didn't get it then and they still don't get it. 30-40 some odd years later we are still going through that fad I suppose. When you see somebody that is still doing or saying pretty much the same as 30yrs ago then you know they are genuine. Its a way of life and real in every sense. ASF is a perfect example. Music has become so stale. Bands are no longer road warriors. Festivals are now some bands tour. Clubs no longer-
I'm a woman so I can say this: it's bc women, particularly extreme feminist women have decided they hate all men... That's why. I'm a happily married woman. Most men are great and most women are too. There are jerks in both genders.
I have to say, ive seen ASF live quite a few times but i'll still go out my way to see them live.... And after 27 years of gigging i cant pay them much more of a compliment than that.
I'm glad they're still around and I have fond memories of seeing them live back around 1992 and getting the giant inflatable Chiquita banana aka 'sausage'. I'd love to see them again.
They were doing a record signing in my US city back in the day, but I missed them by about 10 minutes. I rushed to the store after work, but they told me the band had just left!!!
Awesome interview...I love ASF. Nik and Mrs. Fiend are true artists, not sell outs...love their creative music. Would like to attend a concert one day! Soraya ;)
I love these people, they are so genuine in everything they do. Here we are 10 years later I wonder how they are getting on now. Anyone know, please let me know!! thanks to all.
I love what Ms. Fiend says!! "It's like a knife really. It could all go horribly wrong. Or, be brilliant." Brilliant is what "Too Much Acid" is. I know it's crazy, but I actually prefer the way they played those songs live over the studio versions. I think they are the epitome of brilliance when done in the raw and when improvising. More so than what happens in the studio. "Too Much Acid" is one of my all time favorite albums of any band. And, my favorite band is Pink Floyd. So, that's saying a lot. I only wish they had video footage of that show. I spoke with the wed administrator once through email about this. But, he told me there was no video footage of that album, even though it was recorded live. So sad about that. haha But, I have to say, one of the best albums ever. It NEVER gets old!! E.S.T.(Trip To The Moon) is my favorite song from it. It's just brilliant!!!!
I've never saw an interview of alien sex fiend I've been listening to them since I was a kid. I'm 25 now and they're a huge influence in experimental music in my opinion I've always believed the music could be considered cyber punk because it's authentic, organic, and fucking amazing.
I had always interpreted the "breakfast in Berlin" line as they were singing about their world tour as a band. Never knew they hadn't actually toured the world when they wrote it.
I love how even tho they look totally crazy here in stage garb you can also tell they’re two laid back every day Joe’s who are insightful about what they do and happy to share their experiences.
Such pleasent, sincere people ❤ - , imo they are fine example of the TRULY 80's underground scene and it's cool atmosphere that I remember .- unique...!
it was fucking awesome when we saw em in London on their 30th anniversary gig, Dec 2012! Still got tons of live recs from that nite..3 hrs of pure fiendish material. They even played ATTACK. What band is sill doing 3hrs shows??? .. priceless!!
Nic I was just wondering if your still Sleeping with your boots on? Your feet must reek with not odor but o-dear lol. One of my fav songs by ASF and I have no clue where my cassette(ugh that makes me feel old) went to. I wish albums were still exciting like the old days before shit like this. Back then you had to hit up the record stores once a week checking if a new album came out and you were first to get it. I used to have to go to into New Orleans to find anything good like GG or ASF
love ASF, genius songs and albums, mrs. and mr fiend know their unique sound. u don,t have to be a great singer to put together the medicine they conjure.makes the world a better place to be in wth all the tight ass suits controlling everything. thanks again youtube.don,t sell out.
Honestly... I wish records would just come back. They lasted so much longer, were an economically viable for the artists, were collectible, I just miss the old record stores ordering ahead and sales and promotions and contests that you could only get through records. Call me old fashioned, but I think it would be better for everybody if all bands returned to records only.
Fuckin brilliantly supportive from me I’m 50 yrs creative and I just feel so comfortable knowing all the brilliant practitioners of sex fiend and beyond. Hell I thoroughly agreee as a practitioner in my arts and sorcery 🙀😺🐈⬛😸👍
Been q fiendy since the birth urrrrrrgghhh used to rent a recording studio for the day £30 took overdoses of mushroooms and recorded- sent the fiends a demo - chris took the time to write back a great letter plus fanzine etc ❤❤❤❤❤
exist in a lot of places,so the younger people sit around playing video games and never get to see bands in that type of setting. Gigantic festivals where you spend the whole time watching the huge screens of the band, making it so impersonal. Refreshing to see ASF still going.
Could do me a favour and define "chops"? Otherwise I will have to translate it as "breasts"... and then I don't know more then you do (and most probably even less).
Alien sex fiend is my favorite band to drop on the new goth scene, some get it some don't, but it's such a good sound every time, i love people's reactions, and briefly explaining the MASSIVE impact the sound had on current catchy "digestible" (social media) favorites.
I know this sounds crass but some of their tracks has to be some of the best produced and arranged music that I've ever heard (and I've listened to a lot :-)) Ignore the machine has to be one of the best tracks ever produced from a technical / arrangement/ production point of view as well as really powerful in its own right.
oliver? there is a band who does: Rosa Crux, nearly played three hours @ Methusalah's ball, january in Brussels ;) But Sex Fiend is madder than ever, aren't they?
This isn't a Tiger Beat type of band but those frivolous questions swirl dominantly. So I have one of those, What food is it that you eat daily? I'd choose for them a slice of Shepherd Pie, how off am I?
I was in a band with Nik called Mr & Ms Demeanor (not Mrs as Wiki says), back in the Seventies, we only did a few gigs but I remember them well.... Happy days!
Very cool!
They are the only inter-band relationship I can think of that has lasted so long. I guess a strong marriage really does make good music!
the cramps
@@Juliofiasco si, tb, aunq Lux ya ha fallecido, ASF, aún siguen juntos.
different styles but Pat Benetar and her husband.
Real people, no crap. God bless the Fiends
No kidding. They're people you'd love to have over for dinner. No rock stars here.
Such an amazing band and a big influence, especially Mrs Fiend's work, she's an underrated genius
Exactly ❤
I want Mr & Mrs Fiend as my parents D:
Saw them a few times back in the 80's, 'kin awesome. I'm 57 now and still can't get enough of this stuff.
joining you, let's dance we 50's
me2
I was banned from school for playing Them on my ghettoblaster in the school yard in the late 80 s..🤣🤣
😂
Which albums? ACID BATH and MAXIMUM SECURITY..the best of ASF
I absolutely love them. Good people.
Seen them 30 years ago. Great to see them still being alive ...
Was a great time back then.

Now I'm feeling zombi(e)fied,llf.
Amazing. I grew up listening to them. Its amazing they are still doing it.
Why is it so refreshing just to see a table of men and women all speaking and listening to each other respectfully. Why has the world gotten worse.
Yes, I noticed that.
I'm a woman so I can say this: it's bc women, particularly extreme feminist women have decided they hate all men... That's why. I'm a happily married woman. Most men are great and most women are too. There are jerks in both genders.
Alien Sex Fiend rocks!! Still, all these years later.
The interviewer is stylin' hard
right? they look so cool
I have to say, ive seen ASF live quite a few times but i'll still go out my way to see them live....
And after 27 years of gigging i cant pay them much more of a compliment than that.
I'm glad they're still around and I have fond memories of seeing them live back around 1992 and getting the giant inflatable Chiquita banana aka 'sausage'. I'd love to see them again.
i never forget when i saw the chikita on stage
Met the fiends many times in the 80s.really nice people
They do come across as totally grounded, amiable and above all genuine.
They were doing a record signing in my US city back in the day, but I missed them by about 10 minutes. I rushed to the store after work, but they told me the band had just left!!!
Awesome interview...I love ASF. Nik and Mrs. Fiend are true artists, not sell outs...love their creative music. Would like to attend a concert one day! Soraya ;)
I love these people, they are so genuine in everything they do. Here we are 10 years later I wonder how they are getting on now. Anyone know, please let me know!! thanks to all.
In 2024 they’re still amazing. They pioneered their own sound. Respectful.
I'm so glad they have this footage
I love what Ms. Fiend says!! "It's like a knife really. It could all go horribly wrong. Or, be brilliant." Brilliant is what "Too Much Acid" is.

what Ms. Fiend said at the end of the video regarding over people discovering music is sooo true! I wish i found Alien Sex Fiend sooner!
Amazing band wish I could see them live 🥰
I had always interpreted the "breakfast in Berlin" line as they were singing about their world tour as a band. Never knew they hadn't actually toured the world when they wrote it.
I love them so much.
i grow up with their weirdness and power....ty for this uncomparable style of musik
The girl interviewing is fantastic 👌
I love how even tho they look totally crazy here in stage garb you can also tell they’re two laid back every day Joe’s who are insightful about what they do and happy to share their experiences.

Cool interview. The interviewer is very pretty as well.

The Interviewer is Gorgeous

"Badcave" LOL
They're awesome!
They were soooooooo cool in their early days....
I think they are way before their time, technically, and probably influenced a lot of duo synthetic bands
Beste Band der welt .Kult

Очень люблю A.S.F.👍
I see Nick is still a toker!
Alien Sex Machine blast waves will last forever!
Honestly... I wish records would just come back. They lasted so much longer, were an economically viable for the artists, were collectible, I just miss the old record stores ordering ahead and sales and promotions and contests that you could only get through records.
Call me old fashioned, but I think it would be better for everybody if all bands returned to records only.
I wouldn't want to bump into Mr Fiend at night in a dark street :-)
Fuckin brilliantly supportive from me I’m 50 yrs creative and I just feel so comfortable knowing all the brilliant practitioners of sex fiend and beyond. Hell I thoroughly agreee as a practitioner in my arts and sorcery 🙀😺🐈⬛😸👍

Nice

The music industry in Spain is shit, the internet saved my life
Who is the interviewer?
King of punk and electro punk

Remember rock and roll part 1 & 2 nick all you use to play neighbour back in the 1970s
I like that interviewee-chick... even with her sad english-skills. Can I take her home and keep her? :D
Could do me a favour and define "chops"? Otherwise I will have to translate it as "breasts"... and then I don't know more then you do (and most probably even less).

All of the English is spoken significantly. Journalism is like Weddings, you should never outdo the bride. Focus is on Alien Sex Fiend

Mr. Fiend, if you read this some day, please come to Mexico City!!!!
i can appreciate you point of view, perhaps i was not looking at this in the correct light......

.well said sir or madam....
Best band in the big fucking world!

Avoid those therapists!! KEEP ROCKING
Why doesn't he have a shirt on?

Fantastic people, like Lux Interior and Poison Ivy only different
BOSSES!!!!!!
Great interview! The girl doing the interviewing is delicious!
Does anybody know what Nik s tattoo on his arm is?
Towards the end of the interview I was looking at his wife's ear, elfish?
