THE ICARUS LINE

Los Angeles-based hard rock band, THE ICARUS LINE return with their third full-length, Black Lives At The Golden Coast on Dim Mak Records.  The band recently made their Dim Mak Records debut with the release of their Black Presents EP in November 2006.  

The band formed as teenagers in the late 90's and has released a handful of 7"'s, EP's, and two full-lengths that propelled them out of the West Coast underground scene onto the national spotlight.  Two years have passed since their last disc, Penance Soirée, was released and the band - singer and songwriter Joe Cardamone, guitarist Alvin DuGuzman, drummer Jeff "The Captain"Watson, guitarist James Striff and bassist Jason Decorse - is more anxious than ever to get on tour and reconnect with their fans.

Black Lives At The Golden Coast - for which The Icarus Line have turned once more to the good judgement and talent of producer Mike Musmanno - is certainly their most stunning venture to date. The album was entirely recorded on tape, with Cardamone and the band pushing the sound above and beyond their own expectations and dosing it with even more concentrated elements of pop, art, and sex.  Black Lives proves that true rock n roll is still alive in the heart of The Icarus Line.
