Rose Of Avalanche, The

Formed in early 1985 and hailing from Leeds, The Rose Of Avalanche were labeled with the Goth Rock tag from an early stage, however, unlike their contemporaries their influences - particularly on the debut First Avalanche - lay with American Psychedelic Rock such as Doors, The.

Although they enjoyed positive attention from music press and premier tours with other well-known acts, the band suffered from poor label management and contractual obligations which ultimately led to court appearances. The band split up in 1992 following the release of their final album I.C.E..
