With JCVSTIL coming out in September, I thought that this would be an opportune time to quiz Joe on the state of the record, what the inspiration behind the title was, and why it has taken so long. 1. What was the inspiration for calling the album ‘JCVSTIL’? I guess the reason the record is […]

Here are a few scans from Kerrang’s blowout feature on The Icarus Line (circa 2002). To the best of my knowledge, this was the only time that The Icarus Line ever graced the front cover of the British media institution (although I could be wrong). The article contained within was also a veritable highlight. Anyway, […]

Stevie Chick has a really interesting feature up on his site. It’s a reprint of a really old article he was involved in whilst being associated with the legendary (yet short-lived) ‘Loose Lips Sink Ships’ magazine. Read it here, and then tell all your friends. It was a tense show, unforgettable, perhaps the most fearsome […]

Dirty Laundry has a new video up in which the they “step out of the ‘mat and head over to Valley Recording Co. to hang with Icarus Line main man Joe Cardamone”. Joe gives them a tour of the studio, and also gives an insight into the Slave Vows recording process. Also in (semi) related […]

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 […]

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.

This is an article which I pulled from Kerrang circa December 15 2001.  In it, Travis Keller spouts the reasons why Buddyhead exist, and as to why Limp Bizkit are the antithesis of “good” music.  Enjoy!

Apologies for any delays to the site, and apologies again for publishing the following interview – which was originally conducted in 2008 with ex-members Jason DeCorse and James Striff, alongside present member Alvin DeGuzman, on the morning after The Icarus Line played at The Old Blue Last (London). Due to the length of the interview, […]

Due to their lack of sizable scope, the following articles have all been collated from various issues of Kerrang and presented here in one big post. So here goes… First up is Kerrang #1011 June 26 2004 in which Travis Keller was featured as being 37th in the magazine’s ‘The A-List – The 100 Most […]

First published in Kerrang May 19 2001, the following is a feature length article that describes The Icarus Line’s struggle in wanting to be taken seriously by people and the music industry, and the lengths to which the band had to go to in order to retain credibility. Not wanting to sell out, The Icarus […]
