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.
Here is the first part of my exclusive interview with Jason, Joe and Wade from The Icarus Line when the band came over to London in 2008. Check back soon for the second part to that interview. Before their recent “secret” show at Old Blue Last in London, I was lucky enough to catch up […]
This is some funny shit. It was posted on the band’s Wiki page in July 2008. Anyway, here it is for you all to read. In 1996, Aaron North (who had been working at Revelation Records with Joe Cardamone) and Lance Arnao joined a local band Kanker Sores whose other members at the time included […]
Back in 2003, when The Icarus Line were about to release their second Penance Soiree album, they (along with The Bronx) were featured in a little known publication called ‘FADER’ (Issue 19). And here is the article in all its glory. Enjoy!
Stevie Chick recently penned another great article about The Icarus Line for The Guardian (Online). It’s more of a career retrospective, and you can check it out here.

In need of an urgent replacement, and as a consequence therefore, Joe and the gang scouted out fellow LA resident (and temporary replacement) Karl Spider who was more then […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
