The Band When Icarus Falls Is Composed Of Five Men With Various Musical Influences From Jazz And Classical To Hardcore. Each Member Has Grown In A Particular Musical Universe That Boosts The Inspiration Of WIF. This Alchemy Helps The Band Not To Be Confined To A Single Musical Style.

Therefore It Is Not Rare To Find On Its Songs Some Original Instrumental Associations Such As A Piano And A Guitar Played With A Violin Bow Or Screams On A Jazzy Beat. Accompanied By A Mind Blowing Voice WIF Opens A Way Between Rage And Despair Melancholy And Brutality.
