| 23.6.2008 | ICONOFEAR WISHES AN INFERNAL SUMMER! The recording process slows down a bit during the summer. When Limppu gets back from his summer vacation with Chevy Chase, he continues to sing his lungs off. So we believe we'll have the vocal parts ready in august-september. Take care and be patient. We know we won't! |

| 5.11.2007 | NEW SINGER ANNOUNCED! Iconofear is proud to present Mika "Limppu" Lindberg, the new vocalist for Iconofear! Mika has previously been delivering his fierce voice for Vestigia Terrent and Grain in the 1990's. He has also done some session work for Cradle of Filth, Mortiis and Evemaster. Things have been working out great so far, and we can't wait to record our new songs with Mika! Hell yeah! |
| 21.8.2007 | NEWSFLASH! There have been some major things happening at the Iconofear camp. Keyboardist and vocalist Heidi Parviainen decided to concentrate on her singing career. Keyboards wasn't the right choice for her. So we wish her and Amberian Dawn all the best. Also, things didn't work out with our singer Thomas Vee, so we had to let him go. Some may think why all the changes in the line-up recently? Well, we didn't want to stay put, we wanted to evolve to a new level and we were frustrated with the current situation. We had to do drastic decisions if we wanted to keep going. It's hard to find people who share the same visions, are ambitious and can cope with each other musically and personally. The current line-up (Aki, Eerik, Kasperi, Timo) represents all that. Iconofear will come up with a new singer and keyboardist, that's for sure. New songs we have written are definitely the best Iconofear songs so far, and they deserve/need the proper talent throughout the band. So you'll hear from us, hopefully very soon... Meanwhile, Iconofear is currently looking for a new keyboardist and a new vocalist. We have already candidates for the job, but we'll try out every possibility, whoever is interested. |
| 7.4.2007 | Change of plans! Since Aki & Kasperi have been on fire, writing so many songs in the past few months, we decided to record a full length album. So no more demos. We've got seven new songs that are still in the process. We first finalize them in our rehearsal shack and then we'll find a good studio to record them (and few of our good ol' classic songs). We finance this process ourselves, so this might take a while. So please be patient, it will be worth waiting! Meanwhile you may see us live occasionally, but we'll mostly concentrate on the upcoming album. |
| 13.3.2007 | NEW BASSPLAYER Eerik Purdon is the new bassplayer for Iconofear! Eerik is also known for his work in Crystal Blaze. Lars had to move far far away to study and educate himself, and we wish all the best in his efforts! Once again, no tragedies involved. |
