Music is a visceral thing. Making music is no different. “This record did not just make itself and get into your hands by accident today. It was written, produced, and recorded under the constant threat of extinction,” says Joe Cardamone, of The Icarus Line, on their upcoming album "Wildlife". Out August 30th on Cobraside Distribution/ Roar Scratch Records, the LP is a collection of songs that perfectly capture the raw feelings that pure rock n’ roll music is supposed to emote. The album features guest appearances from Annie Hardy, of fellow LA rock outfit Giant Drag, and Ariel Pink to add to it’s coolness factor. Cardamone calls it, “a fight to survive in a musical landscape dominated by frat boys in ships clothing.” Sounds intriguing. The Icarus Line will be announcing a US tour very soon, which will definitely include some LA dates. We’ll keep you posted. – Taylor Lampela
