Static Icon

Static Icon

Static Icon is a synthpop band. They started in Adelaide, Australia as a 3 piece band called "Das Concept". In their first incarnation they were a Depeche Mode covers band. Gradually they introduced more and more original material into their set. To complete the transition to a fully original band, they changed their name to Static Icon and dropped all but one or two Depeche Mode covers from their set.

Through association with bands in the Melbourne, Australia industrial music scene they were introduced to and subsequently signed with EBM label Machinery Records in Berlin, Germany, with whom they released two albums, starting with "Sin Machine" in 1995.

Their first album was recorded in Adelaide, but there was some issues around the master tapes being stolen. Shortly after they moved to Berlin, Germany where much of the album was re-recorded.

Their second and best known album "Slave" was produced by Marc Heal and released in 1997.

Their current status is unknown.
