Artist description Hello stranger! I thought I should let u know about my band Icarus. Why? Cos we r the best thing to come out of this rotting carcass of an island in years and very shortly we will b the most exciting, touching and beautifully wasted sound coming out of your stereo. It’s not just about songs 2 die 4. Its not just about Epic grandeur mixed with volcanic energy, its not just about big riffs and heartbreakingly honest lyrics, or our obsession with MELODY. We r the best fucking rock n' roll band that I have ever heard- and that’s important but not EVERYTHING. Icarus is about resisting Conformity, Dodging Immortality and pissing against the wall of convention. Were looking 4 fellow believers 2 join us in the revolution. We formed Icarus bout 5 months ago. After having a brief flirtation with the Belfast music scene in other bands we had become disillusioned with the amount of conformity, mediocrity and general ass kissing that went on in so called 'rock' circles. So we decided to form a band that would be better than every other band on every level and to generally fuck things up a bit. :-)As for our music I really don’t like to pigeonhole us but as friends our influences would b Mansun, Deftones, early Manics, Sex Pistols, Ash, The Beach Boys and The Clash. These influences do appear within our music but more than anything else we sound like ICARUS. We have the sounds to back up our claims too. We recorded last month, and the results of which is a three track demo, which we our prepared to give free to our club members. If ur interested in more info then contact me at child_of_icarus@yahoo.co.uk or thru yahoo msgr. This is no scam, we r completely 4 real. If u r interested the best thing 2 do is join our free yahoo club ‘CHILD OF ICARUS’. This way your name and e-mail address will automatically b registered in our list and u can check at your own convenience any news or info. This is where we will distribute our C.D from and as well as that, if u visit regularly and use the message board its good craic chatting/arguing bout music and current issues…u need a thick skin sometimes though J. Hope you’re interested. It would b great if u knew any like-minded freaks, rebels, revolutionaries or deviants who would be interested. If u could give them my E-mail or get their e-mails or postal addresses and send them 2 me it would help spread the word a bit quicker. Again many thanx.
