Alice Sweet Alice are mavericks in the Alt Rock music world, defying any easy
pigeonhole. In fact, ASA invented one word to describe their unique- and ever-evolving
sound: “Electropostpunkadelic”. As one Kansas City reviewer described Alice Sweet
Alice’s music: "Take the turbulent undercurrent of Joy Division, add edgy guitar-synth
crunch and hooks ala Garbage, drop in the haunting post-punk of Siouxsie Sioux and the
Banshees, a dash of Love and Rockets psychedelics, and polish the whole mix with
angst-meets-curious inclinations inspired by The Cure's rhythmic urges.
Something like that with a twist. Having lived through the Eighties as the soundtrack to
college years, there’s a definite sense of familiarity to this music. Are the ghosts of Echo
& The Bunnymen, Psychedelic Furs, and other acts slipping across the decades to leave
traces in the music of now? Perhaps, yet Alice Sweet Alice conjures a contemporary
sound as well. There’s melodic muscular rock balladry (read: Evanescence) on “It’s My
Time.” The track “Legends of the Po” bears an apocalyptic weight (read: Nick Cave) as if
the Western world has gone straight to hell.”
Despite being 3 years old, and having 2 full-length albums and one live album under their
belt, Alice Sweet Alice remains relatively unknown on their home turf.
Quite the opposite has happened overseas, where via their eastern European distributor “AMAdea Records, Alice Sweet Alice has
consistently remained at the top selling status with all three of their albums. In addition, in early 2010, Alice Sweet Alice got Top 15
Certification by the IAIRA for their holiday single, “Glass Houses”, quite a feat considering IAIRA monitors radio airplay all over the globe.
After a number of methodical and improving lineup changes over the past year, ASA is ready to take on their native audience and bring
their music to the masses, first in the Midwest, and then to both US coasts, respectively. A tour of Europe is being planned for 2011 and
promises to be quite an awakening for both the band and their eager European fanbase.
