Biography

The Scottish band The Aliens was formed in 2005 by former Beta Band members Gordon Anderson (lead vocals, guitar), John Maclean (keyboards, backing vocals), and Robin Jones (drums, backing vocals); Anderson had been friends with Maclean since school in St Andrews. Their first release, the EP Alienoid Starmonica (20 March 2006), was followed by the single "The Happy Song" (18 September 2006), establishing the groupâs psychedelicârock sound. In 2007 the band issued their debut album Astronomy for Dogs (19 March 2007), which peaked at number 46 on the UK Album Chart, and released the single "Setting Sun" (5 March 2007); a subsequent tour was postponed due to Andersonâs injury but resumed in May. The second album, Luna, arrived on 29 September 2008, preceded by the single "Magic Man" (22 September 2008), and the group completed a series of UK festival dates in July. After a hiatus, The Aliens returned in 2019 with a live album Live on the Moon (29 November 2019) and a 2020 single "BB, WDYLM" on YouTube, marking their first new material since 2008. The bandâs catalog, including the 2021 releases Doorway Amnesia and Back to Beyond, reflects a sustained presence in the Scottish psychedelicârock scene.
