Die Herrscher des Slashercore, Ice Nine Kills, feiern den romantischsten Tag des Jahres mit einem besonderen Valentinsgeschenk für ihre Fans in Form eines blutigen, animierten Musikvideos zu ihrem Song „Take Your Pick“, in dem Cannibal Corpse-Frontmann Corpsegrinder zu sehen ist und das vom berüchtigten Horrorfilm My Bloody Valentine inspiriert wurde.
Blood is red, veins are blue, Ice Nine Kills have a (Bloody) Valentine’s gift for you.
Spencer Charnas erzählt:
„To pay tribute to one of the most vicious slashers of the 1980’s we knew we had to cook up a video and musical number with only 2 things in mind, brutality and poor taste. We are honored to have the legendary Corpsegrinder providing his signature vocal assault which will hopefully disembowel the listener. With so many ways to die this Valentine’s Day, take your pick…“
„Take Your Pick“ ist auf Ice Nine Kills phänomenal erfolgreichem Album The Silver Scream 2: Welcome to Horrorwood zu hören. Das im Oktober 2021 veröffentlichte Album brachte Ice Nine Kills ihre erste Top-20-Position (Platz 18) in den Billboard Top 200 ein, führte die Digital- und Current Hard Music-Charts an, erreichte die Top 5 der Current Rock-, Independent-, Current Albums- und Album-Verkaufscharts und verzeichnete bis heute 62 Millionen plattformübergreifende Streams und 6,6 Millionen YouTube-Aufrufe für die Singles „Hip To Be Scared“, „Assault & Batteries“, „Rainy Day“ und „Funeral Derangements“.
ABOUT ICE NINE KILLS
Decadent, devious, and fiercely insane, Ice Nine Kills celebrate pop culture’s darkest edges, mining a cinephile library’s worth of iconic horror on 2018’s The Silver Scream which spawned Top 10 Mainstream Rock single “A Grave Mistake” and Top 20 hit “Savages”. The creative marriage made in hell of music and fiction began in earnest with the Top 5 Hard Rock album, Every Trick in the Book, which brought the previous three records’ themes to new levels and which the band have completely perfected on their most recent full-length ’The Silver Scream 2: Welcome to Horrorwood.’
The band’s synergy of music and lifestyle draws favorable comparisons to Slipknot and Rob Zombie. Visionary trailblazers and multimedia raconteurs, INK built a thrilling world for a growing legion of devoted true believers, with theatrical shows, high-concept videos, and inventive band-to-fan communion. Their wildly creative output has seen them become recent recipients of the prestigious Clio Award for Music Marketing for their „Merry Axe-mas“ mobile game and their live streaming event from October 2020, The Silver Stream be nominated for 5 awards at this year’s Horror Hound Film Festival Awards in the categories of Judges Choice, Best Sound, Best Supporting Performance, Best Cinematography and Best Feature. With over 1.37 million monthly listeners on Spotify, 595 million career streams to date and over 129.5 million views on YouTube the band are firmly cemented as one of modern metal’s most vicious forces.
