Originally formed in 1979 as Schoolboys, the Arizona metal group eventually known as Icon isn't one that comes up a lot in conversation. Even though they have two highly regarded '80s albums, they still get overlooked in part because of touring and promotion. An untimely departure of singer Stephen Clifford would also lead to their second album, Night of the Crime, losing traction before it even got started. However, with much of the original lineup playing together again (including Stephen), it seemed like a good time to take another look at this awesome band. This is a short one but I think you'll like what you hear. Come check it out!
