Paraphilia Magazine posted up a little article recently about their interview with Joe Cardamone (from The Icarus Line). Read it (and Joe’s thoughts on the state of the record industry among other things) here.

Some of you mentioned the recent entry which the band had on their Wiki page as being really interesting and informative. After being re-printed on the STS forum by ‘ald’, I am publishing it here. Enjoy! 1998-2003 Early EPs and Mono Era Shortly after forming, the band recorded two eps; the first Highlypuncturingnoisetestingyourabilitytohate released on […]

Here are two more articles from Kerrang.  I’m afraid I don’t know as to what the original publication date was for these pieces.  Sorry. EDIT: The Live review is from Kerrang and was published on February 02 2002.

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 […]

Imagine my surprise on attending The Icarus Line’s concert at Buffalo Bar (London) and seeing Alvin DeGuzman – one of the original members of the band and whose absence from the ranks only served to remind me of how difficult it can be to maintain any semblance of congruence when it comes to interpersonal relationships.

Since then, I’d make sure to go and see him whenever he toured the […]

For a while now, I’ve been wondering as to whether I still had in my possession the original Kerrang article which announced Aaron North’s exit from The Icarus Line stable. Luckily, I was able to find it recently (in Kerrang #1044 February 19 2005), and am posting it here below: Also, and I think I […]

If you only ever read one article this year, read this – a comprehensively well researched account on The Icarus Line’s beginnings, and all the trials and tribulations that the band has undergone over the years. Seriously essential reading. Now tell all your friends about the article, as it deserves to be read by all, […]

The following is an article that was printed in Kerrang June 30 2001. In it, Joe Cardamone set out the band’s manifesto, and what UK audiences could expect from The Icarus Line when the group invaded the UK a few days later.

Just so that The Icarus Line could kick off 2010 in style, here is an interview which I conducted with Joe Cardamone for the New Year. Can I just say that I would like to thank him for taking the time out at such a busy time, and I wish the band well for what […]
