Alicate - Too Bad To Be Good
Alicate was formed in the late 80ās by lead vocalist/guitarist Jonas Erixon and bass player Fredrik Ekberg. They put together a band that toured in Sweden and Finland and also supported Ian Gillan on his "Toolbox Tour" in 1992. After a hiatus in the 90ās Alicate reformed and fast forward to 2009, when their first full length album called āWorld Of Angerā was released. The same year they did a successful appearance at Sweden Rock festival and with the new found popularity the album āFree Fallingā was released in 2013. Their third full release, āUnforgiven To Be Forgivenā, followed in 2018 together with a live EP called āLive At Forumā. During Covid pandemic, Jonas Erixon composed songs and collaborated with some high profile artists with songs for Giant, Skills (with Billy Sheehan and Brad Gillis) and Sweet Oblivion (Geoff Tate). During the Pandemic, Erixon wrote new material for Alicate. The album "Butterfly" was released 2022 via Pride & Joy Music. The Swedish quartet quickly started recording their next release in the same vein. The result was the long player "Heaven Tonight" (2024, Pride & Joy Music). At the end of 2025, a line-up change happened when the new keyboardist in the band, Marcus Zerath, came on board - injecting new energy to the band! The new release "Too Bad to Be Goodā continues in the Melodic Rock vein with some very strong hooks. The bandās joint collaboration on the 10 new songs gives a solid foundation for Jonas strong voice. Also, Pete Alpenborg, was invited to co-write some songs like the single āSave Our Loveā.
Alicate chose Svein Jensen at Grand Recordings to mix the album with a fresh perspective on the music. The mastering was handled by Philip Granqvist.
Line-up: Jonas Erixon (vox/git)
Marcus Zerath (Keyboards)
Fredrik Ekberg (Bass)
Jesper Persson (Drums)
