Leaving the Line for the Nine
It looks like
The Icarus Line
lost a key player. Maniac guitarist Aaron North quit the band and now plays in fucking Nine Inch Nails. Yeah, you heard right. That’s like upgrading from Keira Knightley to Angelina Jolie.
Aaron is the same dude who broke the glass case that held Stevie Ray Vaughans' guitar and tried to play it while performing at SXSW. Aaron's also the dude who threw a P.A. into the crowd at Sunset Junction. Word on the street is that Aaron was the first kid Michael Jackson "touched"....I'd be angry too. Here’s the interview he did for
Blabbermouth.net
Sp1at.com: What is the status between you and THE ICARUS LINE?
Aaron North:
"I quit the band. I was over it. I did not quit THE ICARUS LINE to join NINE INCH NAILS, I quit THE ICARUS LINE about a month before I started playing with NIN."
Sp1at.com: Have you heard the new NIN album, and if so, what are your favorite tracks?
A
aron North:
"I have... and I'm not going to tell you. I will say that it is an amazing and inspiring record. Really fun stuff to play."
Sp1at.com: You piss on Robin Finck's shoes, according to Trent [Reznor]. What do you think of that?
Aaron North:
"I don't know. It's apples and oranges. My style and approach to guitar is nothing like that dude's. I've only seen him play once... when my old band played a festival in Japan with GUNS N' ROSES... he seems like a great guitar player, but like i said, apples and oranges."
Good for him, but I wonder how will it affect the Icarus Line’s sound. Aaron definitely added a distinct freak-out element to the band both in the studio and on stage. Well kids, here’s a brand new Icarus Line song to rock out to while you ponder that question. It comes courtesy of a really awesome fansite called
