ICEBURN.



Hardcore-gone-jazz straight outta Salt Lake City.
They were on Revelation and Victory back in the day, yet they weren't really a hardcore band. Shit got even weirder after this record - which is jazzed-out-to-the-max. Good stuff to expand your mind (and your collection), check it out!

  1. nice on again. always loved this band but never had this disc. the split 12" with Engine Kid on Revelation was a favorite of mine when it came out. marble vinyl n' all. great band. arguably responsible for all the "math"-core bands around these days.

  2. I definitely love this band. When I bought Hephaestus back in the day I nearly flipped. At first I was like "What did I buy?!" But I LOVED it! I still do. I bought that victory 7" after that and then Firon... and was even m ore surprised. "What! they use to be an actual hardcore band?!"

    haha!!

    To be honest though, I never heard anything after the Engine Kid split (until now).

    I do have a 2006 recording of Iceburn with Clann de Zu or something like that. I can up that if you want. Very doomy and strange. Not altogether bad...

  4. Meant to comment on this ages ago. Brilliant stuff, thanks for sharing. Kind of a prefiguration of Yakuza, or something. Definitely great for working to.
