As part of his ongoing ‘Buddyhead Radio’ series, Buddyhead supremo Travis Keller spends over two hours delving into all things The Icarus Line related this week when he interviews band leader Joe Cardamone. During their rather extensive discussion, and I’m only about one hour in, we get to learn a little bit more about the […]

The Icarus Line just announced the release date for their new album – All Things Under Heaven – today. Coming out on 2 October 2017, the new double LP will release worldwide via American Primitive / Agitated Records.

Stereogum have the full scoop on the single (titled Cold Daggers) taken from Queen Kwong’s debut album – which features co-writing and production duties from Joe Cardamone of The Icarus Line. It’s worth noting also that Queen Kwong features Wes Borland of Limp Bizkit, so you know that the Carré Callaway fronted band has Buddyhead’s […]

It pretty much consists of old Jubilee related blog posts thus far, but Aaron North appears to have a “new” (old?) personal website up. As to whether this signals his desire to carve out his own niche via the internet – and not be associated with other people – only time will tell. But given […]

According to Joe Cardamone’s Facebook page, “Avowed Slavery is material from the same recording sessions as Slave Vows. This release is not being presented as The Icarus Line’s new LP.

Today marks the 10 year anniversary for when The Icarus Line first unleashed their second album Penance Soiree on to an unsuspecting mainstream music world. Of course, many underground music connoisseurs had already have been bracing themselves for something special – as Mono was indeed an exceptional debut.

Check out Lance Arnao’s photos on Buddyhead which depict The Icarus Line undergoing the recording process for their new album. And if Travis Keller is to be believed, then the new album will be very special indeed. Especially after Slave Vows – which was just all sorts of amazing.
