    About

    Friends of Alice Ivy cut a unique figure in the contemporary music scene; the likes of which have not been seen since the early days of Cocteau Twins or Dead Can Dance. Interestingly, this Australian band has been around since 1992, albeit in a slightly different guise; that of much-loved ethereal/darkwave band "Ostia". Though Ostia is now in the past, Friends of Alice Ivy have to a degree revisited the essence of their former band on their amazing new album "The Golden Cage and its Mirrored Maze". Friends of Alice Ivy have achieved something truly unique, magical and intoxicating here; the album combines rich strings, chiming guitars, 80s new wave and 1970s psychedelia to create a sound that is truly unique on Australian shores.
