Ice Nine Kills Premiere New Song “Enjoy Your Slay”

Posted by caemanamelio on

Ice Nine Kills have premiered a new song titled “Enjoy Your Slay.” This song is inspired by Stephen King‘s “The Shining” and it features a guest appearance from Sam Kubrick, the grandson of Stanley Kubrick, who is responsible for the film adaptation of “The Shining.”

Spencer Charnas said the following about the track, which was created in response to a fan voted poll:

“It was a close race, but Stephen King‘s classic tale of the Overlook Hotel’s winter caretaker and his descent into madness emerged as the victor. Being huge fans of not only the novel, but also of Stanley Kubrick‘s brilliant film adaptation, we knew in order for the song to work we would need to capture the unnerving isolation and traumatizing scenes of horror that occurred on those 447 pages and 144 minutes of film.”

Ice Nine Kills Premiere “Nature Of The Beast” Music Video

Ice Nine Kills have premiered a new video for their song “Nature Of The Beast,” via Alternative Press. This song is from their latest album, “Every Trick In The Book,” which is available now.

Spencer Charnas said the following:

“This video marks the third and final chapter of the video trilogy that began in fall 2015 with ‘Communion Of The Cursed.’ We pick up right where the ‘Hell In The Hallways‘ video ended last spring, continuing to follow the character Kevin as he navigates through the sinister side of the literary classics that inspired our ‘Every Trick In The Book‘ album.

This song, ‘The Nature Of The Beast,’ is a tribute to George Orwell‘s classic allegorical novel ‘Animal Farm‘. The message of that book seems particularly relevant, given the dangerous political climate which engulfs our country at the moment.”

The new version of the effort will be titled “Safe Is Just A Shadow (Re-Shadowed)” and it can be preordered HERE. You can listen to the re-recorded version of “The People Under The Stairs” below:

Spencer Charnas commented:

“With the evolution of our skills as musicians, and the original producer, Steve Sopchak, having established himself at the top of his craft, we felt this was a perfect time to re-record the album and give it that extra attention that it always deserved. We’ve also repackaged the album with the impressive Toby Fraser produced artwork that was originally supposed to accompany the release.”

Ice Nine Kills Premiere “Hell In The Hallways” Music Video

Posted by caemanamelio on

Ice Nine Kills have premiered a new video for their song “Hell In The Hallways.” This song is from their new album, “Every Trick In The Book,” which is available now.

Spencer Charnas said the following:

“As an avid fan of horror films with multiple sequels, I have long had the urge to connect our music videos as a chronologic progression of stories. Taking off from our last video, based on The Exorcist, and moving into this new tribute to Carrie, I tried to create an original narrative that links these two classic tales of terror.

Reuniting with Dan Kennedy and Rasa Partin from Little Sky Film (directors of “Communion Of The Cursed“) enabled us to bring my vision to life in an elegantly twisted way. But above all, the band wanted to take a stand against bullying and the cruelty it inflicts on so many kids. At it’s core, the story of Carrie is a profound morality tale about the dangers of bullying and the horrific consequences that can ensue.

With a growing understanding by psychiatrists of the life-long consequences of being bullied, along with an increasing number of suicides, it seemed like a good time to put a spotlight on this epidemic.”
