Icarus

ICARUS, a band from Antwerp (Belgium), was founded in 2006. In the beginning, the band played solid rock with influences from punk rock and hardcore, a scene in which most of the band members have their roots.
At the end of 2006, they played their first gig … the crowd went wild! In 2007 and 2008 they did dozens of shows and recorded a couple of demos, on which you can definitely hear a shift in sound and genre. They continued their pursuit of an own and strong identity in 2009 and, after a very promising pre-production, they locked themselves in the studio in December to record their first full-album: “MEET MY CELLAR DOOR”. This brings ICARUS to where they are now: five young men who know what they want, with a mature and mind-blowing sound that’s best described as rock without compromises, with strong influences from the ‘70s and without ever sounding outdated.
Meet My Cellar Door is out since April 2010 and available on iTunes since July 2010.
