Reviews
- Alive She Died started their music journey in the year 1983. The initial band members were: Daphne Gerogianni - voice, Xenophon Xenios - keyboards/drum programming, George Ginis - keyboards/sounds, Tina Goudis - bass. The sound of their music was characterized as dark, attributed to their use of synthesizers, bass and drum-machines and the deep melancholic feeling coming from Daphne's performance. Their first-ever live performance took place at "Pegasus" club in Athens, on February 21st, 1985 and it was followed by four more live gigs. On March 1985, the band self-released 300 copies of "Viva Voce", their cassette tape release which was to become famous. During the autumn of 1986, the initial line-up seized to exist. The band's last live performance - with the addition of new members - took place in "Madd" club in Athens, in March 1987.
