we have to take notes on how the myths of the four great adventures in Edith Hamilton's Mythology, of which the tale of daedalus and icarus is one, are represented in the outside world. i got music and good GOD out of all the songs ive heard tonight this is those were the most relevant ones ive ever heard. great video too, im using that awesome picture at 2:45 for the video were doing on it.
It's from Greek Mythology. Daedalus is the father of Icarus. He made wings using feathers and wax. He told his son not to fly too close to the sun or the wax would melt and the wings fell.
Eventually, while they were travelling with their wings, Icarus' wings melt and he died.
These guys make me cry all the time. You're not a fag. Their lyrics are phenomenal and the music matches. It's some of the greatest art out there. Ever.
hey i was wondering where you got the drawing from at 1:21 in the video, I tried searching Google pictures of Daedalus and Icarus but couldn't find it.
though im sure alot of people have realized this to those that havnt the song is based on a legend/myth (the name itself is a reference) lookup the story of 'Icarus and Daedalus'. great song.
the funny thing is, i have been listening to thrice for about 4 years now, and it took me about 2 years of listening to them to realized that, thats where the song came from

Daedalus is the father and Icarus is the son.
This song is the perspective of Daedalus and
The Melting point of Wax from their ablum The Artist in the Ambulance is the perspective of Icarus.
Both amazing songs. I suggest you listen to them both, back to back. Thrice has very talented artists who actually put hard work into their music.

@adrushpainz Daeldalus's point of view is actually in the song "The Melting Point of Wax" I guess Thrice likes the story :)

SPYop21 3 years ago
Thanks dude! I love to draw things like that. I drew a picture of Icarus inspired by "Deadalus", and "Melting Point of Wax!"
stlukas7 3 years ago
Yea I also have one that was inspired by a line in a song which was "wings too premature to flutter"
And I looked at it a few days ago and without asking you'd think it would be icarus inpired.
I'm trying to touch it up to get it as a side piece.

actually, the part of the sea where Ikarus fell, is still called Ikario Pelagos -The Open Sea of Ikarus.
