Alien Sex Fiend - It The Album Info :
Alien Sex Fiend's 4th studio album was originally issued in 1986 as the 9 track "It The Album", and is arguably one of the group's most complete - though still loopy and lopsided - statements. An experimental monsterpiece, the band scaled unearthly peaks of creativity and/or insanity, and the psychedelic overtones of "Manic Depression" and "Get Into It" (a big live favourite) provide a signpost for future development. "It The Album" also includes the infamous banned Indie Chart Hit single "Smells Like...". The cover features an original oil painting by Nik Fiend which has now become world famous. For the later CD release in 1990 the 3 single tracks "Buggin' Me", "Hurricane Fighter Plane" and "It Lives Again" were added to create a 12 track monster.
Trainpotter corner : During the recording sessions for It -The Album, the studio engineer went missing for a number of days. With all of ASF's equipment and master tapes for the album locked within the studio there was no option but to send out a search team. Nik Fiend & Yaxi duly set off driving around the Shepherd's Bush area of London hoping against hope that even though they didn't have the engineer's home address, they might spot him lurking somewhere. He was found on the street - in his dressing gown & slippers! - obviously suffering from the intensity of the sessions. However after a quick wash & brush up at his home they escorted him back to the studio to ensure he didn't disappear again & the sessions continued..... phew!
