AL1CE has navigated a challenging five-year journey, culminating in their double album As Above, So Below, launched via a successful Kickstarter campaign that quickly surpassed its initial goal. Originally releasing part of the album in October 2021, the band faced setbacks like the pandemic and personal losses, with these themes reflected in their music. The campaign, which ends September 3, includes exciting stretch goals like a new music video, vinyl edition, and even an international tour. As the band prepares for their upcoming U.S. tour, fans can look forward to exclusive merchandise and a new illustrated story by vocalist Tash Cox.
Given the ups and downs described, how do you think the hardships faced by artists during crises like the pandemic influence the themes and creativity in their work?
