It’s been a while since I posted anything on this site. Apologies… Joe Cardamone got interviewed by Alice Magazine recently. It’s actually a really good interview, and worth checking out. Plus, there’s a really good quote that I particularly relished in which the Mighty Joe articulated that he associates himself with those who inspire him. […]

As someone who has been a massive fan of The Icarus Line since THAT 5K Kerrang review, what can’t be emphasized enough is just how much of an impact Aaron North had whilst he was in the band – whether it be through Buddyhead or via his own numerous interviews that he conducted over the […]

Even if Don Devore’s stay within The Icarus Line was relatively brief, he still managed to contribute towards what many consider to be the band’s magnum opus (Penance Soiree). And whilst he would eventually exit the band after the release of Black Lives At The Golden Coast, a lot of people considered him to be […]

After Don Devore’s exit from The Icarus Line, Jason DeCorse was drafted in, and worked with the new configuration of the band between the years 2007 – 2012. Whilst only appearing on one studio album, the band’s fourth – Wildlife, Jason DeCorse (along with fellow guitarist James Striff) took the band in a more blues-orientated […]

A hellraising scribe, Travis Keller was responsible for a plethora of shenanigans during Buddyhead‘s heyday, and would routinely receive death threats and lawsuits from musical celebrities (most notably Fred Durst) who had caught his ire. Now utilizing his immense talents for the “cultural creative house and recording studio” known as American Primitive, I get to […]

Joe Cardamone was recently interviewed by Stevie Chick for The Quietus. And in case you didn’t already know, Stevie Chick has been documenting the trials and tribulations of The Icarus Line (and its various members) since the band’s early days, and when he used to write for Kerrang. A seminal music scribe, he’s written a […]

Alvin Deguzman was the guitarist of an American band called The Icarus Line. Although I’d known about The Icarus Line since 2001, it wasn’t until 2004 when I finally got to meet Alvin after his band performed at The Reading Festival. Since then, I’d make sure to go and see him whenever he toured the […]

With The Icarus Line now effectively over, and with Joe Cardamone having since charted out new musical territory with his “Holy War” project, I spoke to the former frontman when he toured London (UK) in March about the dissolution of his band and what he hopes to achieve. Enjoy! Joe, you’ve embarked on a solo […]

With news surfacing of a “narrative feature film about LA freak out rock and roll group, The Icarus Line“, it was only appropriate that someone would try to find out a little bit more about Director Michael Grodner’s forthcoming project. And with this in mind, the co-founder of Honor Roll Productions was more than happy […]

Thanks to Erik Wheeldon for informing me of a really comprehensive Jubilee interview starring Aaron North, Michael Shuman and (to a lesser extent) Jeff Lynn. During the interview, topics ranged from how The Icarus Line disintegrated (before Joe Cardamone put the band back together again), Aaron starting Jubilee after leaving NIN, the recording process for […]
