Biography
Icarus Himself "Mexico" EP Press:

"Icarus Himself is increasingly garnering attention in indie rock e-zines with national influence. Mexico is sure to push the local trio's star a lot higher." - ISTHMUS

"So even for all the slackers and all the poseurs out at various posts, Whetro's stuff is exceptionally serious and remarkably superb. "Mexico" is a bold step forward in every possible manner: it's composed, it's creative, and it's excellent." - Delusions of Adequacy

"A-" - Onion AV Club

"Icarus Himself's new EP Mexico gives you everything the Old West couldn't: comfort, reliable weaponry, and a guaranteed payout in nuggets. Then with its other hand it delivers electronics, baritone guitars and some lines about overweight babysitters - double kill!" - COKEMACHINEGLOW

"I may be projecting, but it sounds like a band absentmindedly playing music while they think back on the defining moments of their lives. It could be the sound of heartbreak in a small town or a silent prayer for something as beautiful as it was in a memory. It could be the soundtrack to a dream or it could just be the sound of a thousand thoughts jammed into five songs." - Tough Customer
