Ice Nine Kills have premiered a new video for their new song “Twisting The Knife.” You can check that out below. The band recorded the track for “Scream 7” and it features one of the film’s stars, McKenna Grace. The movie will be released on February 27.
Vocalist Spencer Charnas commented:
“’Twisting The Knife’ is our tribute to Wes Craven and the ‘Scream’ franchise, which means so much to us. ‘Scream’ is baked into the DNA of who I am and of Ice Nine Kills—my love of horror, comedy, and the collision between the two. I was already obsessed with ‘Halloween’ and ‘Friday The 13th,’ but ‘Scream’ was the first I saw in theaters. Hearing the killer talk about horror movies, in that distinctively pop-culture savvy Kevin Williamson way, blew my mind.
In recent years, we’ve gotten to know and work with Matthew Lillard, Skeet Ulrich, Neve Campbell, Rose McGowan, Jamie Kennedy, Lee Waddell, and others in different capacities. We announced the collaboration with ‘Scream 7’ at Wembley Arena, with Ghostface and Rose McGowan, which was surreal in itself.
When we learned that Mckenna Grace is a fan of our band, it made perfect sense to invite her to sing. She recorded her part in my home studio, in the same room where I keep my screen-used ‘Scream’ knife prop, one of the four rubber knives made for the first movie.
Marco Beltrami’s ‘Scream’ scores are just as influential to me as any other component of the films. In our song, there are echoes of the moody atmospheres he’s created, with our own INK twist.”
Grace added:
“Making this song was such a special experience for me- I am such a big INK fan and it was such an amazing opportunity to be able to play with a different style of music. I am so inspired by [Evanescence singer] Amy Lee’s vocals and we all wanted to channel ‘Scream’ and Sydney’s story as best as we could. Spencer and the guys were so much fun to collaborate with and I’m so thankful to Kevin Williamson.”
