Kansas City rock outfit Alice
Sweet Alice has been compared to a few artists since they started recording
music. Artists such as Evanescence and
Garbage have been mentioned in the
same sentence as them rather frequently. Understandably they have a uniquely
dark style of an alternative rock sound, which is complimented by the spooky
yet smooth vocal styling of female singer Ali
Kat, whom I personally would compare to that of DoloresO’Riordan of The Cranberries, only without the
distinctive lilting style of singing that Dolores has. What is important is that ASA do in fact have
their own identity, which has been showcased on three independently released
albums, from 2008’s First Light to
2009’s Moloko
& Ultraviolence, and their most recent
release, 2011’s Mandala.
