Here is info about The Icarus Line’s ‘Mono’ album taken from Wikipedia. Mono was the first album from The Icarus Line. It was originally released May 8, 2001 in the U.S. by Crank! Records on CD, and Buddyhead on LP. The album was recorded throughout two separate sessions in 2000. The first of these were […]
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!
Another article from The Icarus Line’s heyday. This was first printed in ‘Salt For Slugs’ Vol. 4 No. 3 2001, and I am sure that I was very lucky indeed to have picked this up. Anyway, enjoy…

I still have a few articles from magazines that need to be posted on here – including that (in)famous 5K Review of Mono. I’ll post them up when I have time (and a new scanner)… I have also decided to archive as much TIL content from the web as possible. I guess there is just […]

They feature a review of The Icarus Line’s weakest album to date (in my personal opinion), as well as an interview with Joe Cardamone. Yeah, […]
Joe Cardamone gave an interview to ‘Killer Ponytail’ recently. Among other things, he talks about The Icarus Line’s forthcoming new album – Slave Vows – and how the band’s uncompromising punk sound sits alongside more traditional white rock and indie, where the majority of contemporary “rock ‘n’ roll” music is made by “privileged little brats”. […]
It’s been a while since I’ve interviewed The Icarus Line camp, or heard any news about the band recently. Luckily, I was able to pin Joe down and talk to him about what he’s been up to, and what The Icarus Line intend to do for the remainder of the year. It is worth noting […]
