Space Like Alice is a rock band from Melbourne. Originally called Transistor, they changed to Space Like Alice, which was taken from Alice In Wonderland.[1] They were signed to Wah Wah Records after Paul Kosky heard their demo. They released their first single in 2002, receiving extensive airplay,[2][3] and then recorded an album,[4] to be called Life is Sci-Fi,[5][6] but due to internal problems at their label left their record company before they released anything more.[1][7] They then started their own label,[8] Rabbit Hole and released an EP and a single.
