Aaron North of The Icarus Line and Buddyhead has left the band and joined Nine Inch Nails. He will be making his live debut performing on the industrial band's upcoming March tour of the UK.

North has stated that the new position was not the motivation for his departure from his former band, telling Sp1at.com that:

I quit the band. I was over it. I did not quit the Icarus line to join Nine Inch Nails,I quit the Icarus line about a month before I started playing with NIN.

The Icarus Line released their previous record, and V2 debut, Penance Soirée last year. Nine Inch Nails will be releasing With Teeth on May 3rd via Interscope.
