	Icehouse (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Icehouse is an Australian rock and roll band.
		Icehouse was organised by Iva Davies (born Ivor Arthur Davies, on 22 May 1955, in Wauchope, New South Wales, Australia), who was the main creative force.
		As Flowers, Icehouse built up a strong following as a live act around Sydney, noted for their distinctive cover versions of songs by a wide range of acts including T-Rex and Brian Eno.

	The ICEHOUSE Story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The difference between the live band Flowers of 1980 and the performing ICEHOUSE band of today is enormous, and results from a steady evolution involving all sorts of changes: changes within the individual performers, changes in line-up, changes in types and range of venues, performance media and audiences.
		ICEHOUSE nervously approached their first appearance at the Venue, in London on 22nd July, but were enthusiastically received by a packed house including a hefty sprinkling of expatriate Aussies bent on barracking for their fellow countrymen.
		ICEHOUSE had completed a few more dates in America on the way home and resumed performing in Australia on 13th November at the same venue from which they had left their homeland five months earlier, the Capitol Theatre in Sydney.

		On the way to a second album Icehouse released 'Love In Motion' It was later discovered that Iva had recorded the single all by himself between gigs in London.
		The second Icehouse album was virtually a solo Iva Davies release, recorded in both Sydney and Los Angeles and co-produced by Keith Forsey, disco producer Giorgio Moroder's assistant.
		Icehouse rewarded itself for the success of 'Man Of Colours' with a compilation album 'Great Southern Land', including a couple of new tracks from the sessions towards the next album.

	Icehouse
		In 1980 Flowers also released their debut album, Icehouse, which was also well received by their fans at home.
		The success meant it was time to go international, but like so many other bands - Yazoo, the Beat, and all the British acts that tack a "U.K." to their names for their American releases - Flowers ran into legal problems with their name.
		The resulting move was to adopt the name of their first album as their new monicre, and so Icehouse was born.

		For its first Anglo-American album release, the Sydney, Australia band renamed itself after the title of the Flowers LP, subtracted one cut, remixed and resequenced it.
		Icehouse's debut LP effectively mates emotional tension with the streamlined efficiency of modern synthesizer outfits.
		Sidewalk is a tedious two-voiced exercise: fake Bryan Ferry (hey — doing it once may be cute, but two albums in a row is lame!) and histrionic guitar rock; occasionally the two are blended together in a misbegotten vision of Roxy Metal.

		Icehouse was formed around 1977 by Iva Davies and Keith Welsh, with the moniker Flowers.
		Icehouse was the name of that band’s 1980 debut album, which spawned hometown hits with "Can’t Help Myself" and "We Can Get Together." Chrysalis Records offered to release the album, but had to ask the band for a new name seeing as how English and American acts were using the same name.
		So the band got the name from their album and song title, "Icehouse." But by the time 1982 came about, the band had an absence of material for a sophomore album, and founder Iva Davies had taken himself back to his home studio for inspiration.

	Icehouse Review - On the Street - 22 July 1987
		The bulk of the media persist in their Icehouse - Iva view of the band, while this tour and its first taste of the new material go further to prove Icehouse are more than a one-man band these days.
		The "how do we get the band on stage" prelude has changed, the tense theme from "Boxes" replaced by an effective barrage of aircraft sounds, and an almost ironic warning voice-over, assuring the audience through the air raid that they need have no fear.
		The overview of songs presented in tonight's show left me feeling Icehouse are steadily moving from their younger evocative, imagistic lyrics, scattered with occasional outbursts of raw emotion, to more concisely expressive songs, expo-sition and storytelling richly tempering personal experience and replacing the

		Years before they became a two-hit wonder in the U.S. (thanks to "Crazy" and "Electric Blue"), Australia's Icehouse were haunting a handful of new-wave and college stations with their dark-tinted, yet highly melodic electronic pop.
		The hypnotic reverie "Hey Little Girl" served as the Icehouse's true American breakthrough, at least as far as MTV was concerned.
		Though the fledgling channel had a couple of earlier videos by the band in sporadic rotation from their archives, this clip received heavy airplay for months on end in the summer and fall of 1982.

		This is the second go 'round for the band's debut, which first appeared in Australia (their homeland) in 1980 when they were still called Flowers.
		Rooting themselves beyond their own shores meant changing their name to avoid conflict with another band already called Flowers (incredible) and remixing the album, a rite of passage for Australian releases it seems.
		So Flowers adopted the album's name, Icehouse, as their own and successfully peddled their brand of Ultravox-influenced music on a burgeoning new wave market hungry for new heroes.

	Trouser Press - Angel City: Please comment if you remember
		Angel City was an Australian hard rock band (known as The Angels in Australia) with a semi-alternative vibe that put out albums on Elektra (I think but definitely a major label) and toured the US alot from about '79 to '82.
		There were a shitload of Australian bands in the 1980s that had a crack in the US, failed and continued as a small fish in a big pond for several years.
		Ironically, if Icehouse had stuck around a bit longer, they might soon have been bullied into changing their name by the Miller Brewing Company (which introduced a beer by that name in the early '90s).
