History
Formed in 1986 after the demise of the Sea Beasts, a band at Columbia University. Ted Houghton, Tomas Antona, Dave Giffen and Tom Meltzer recruited drummer Stephen Moses and quickly found a substantial audience at CBGB. Guitarist Michael Jung soon replaced Meltzer, and this lineup recorded and toured relentlessly, eventually disbanding in 1996. Between 1988 and 1996 the band toured in the United States, Europe and Japan.[1]
Alice Donut released ten full-length albums and some EPs, singles, and other releases on Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label and various other labels.
2004's Three Sisters, their first release after their hiatus, was recorded as a four-piece with Tom Antona on vocals, Michael Jung on guitar, Stephen Moses on drums and Sissi Schulmeister on bass.
Guitarist Dave Giffen rejoined the group for Fuzz, which was recorded in Brooklyn's BC Studio with longtime co-producer Martin Bisi, mixed and engineered by Joel Hamilton, and released on September 5, 2006.
The band's tenth studio album followed, Ten Glorious Animals, released in September 2009, on Jello Biafra's Record Label Alternative Tentacles.
