Puerto Rican alternative band Neon Venus was formed in the late '90s after guitarist Peter Valentine, who had previously participated in the Los Angeles underground scene, met Lissette Napoleoni in New York's Central Park. While sharing their passion for music they decided to start a new project called Neon Venus, and were later joined by percussionist Nestor Salazar. The three-piece act released its first album called The Birth of Neon Venus in November 1999, which included a bilingual track called "Strange," inspired by the 50 most famous relationships of the 20th century published by a popular magazine. Following the release of the album, Neon Venus made two videos based on "Strange" and a song called "Aliens," directed by Bruce Wayne Gillies. ~ Drago Bonacich, All Music Guide
