July 11, 2021 James Weaver

ICE NINE KILLS have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Hip To Be Scared, is taken from the horror-obsessed metalcore band’s upcoming new album, The Silver Scream 2: Welcome To Horrorwood, which is scheduled to be released in October this year, via Fearless Records. The new song features a guest appearance from PAPA ROACH‘s Jacoby Shaddix.

Speaking about the upcoming new album and the new song, frontman and driving creative force, Spencer Charnas says, “true to horror franchise tradition, there is always a sequel… Welcome To Horrorwood follows in the bloody footsteps of its predecessor, paying tribute to 13 more of the most gruesome tales to ever grace the silver screen. In this latest INE NINE KILLS offering, the last album and video series is portrayed as a work of fiction. The new story line thrusts the band into a brutal “real world” slaying. The only traces of the crime are 13 songs left behind by the suspected killer…

We can’t wait to share this next chapter with you, and to welcome you to the sinister state of mind that will soon be known the world over as, Horrorwood. The first stop on the tour is 1980’s New York City’s “greed is good” scene, where a certain hot shot investment banker has a rather violent dirty secret…”

The news of the new album comes on the back of the band’s The Silver Stream livestream, which was broadcast last year. For the upcoming album, guitarists Ricky Armellino and Dan Sugarman, bassist Joe Occhiuti, drummer Patrick Galante, and Charnas return to producer and collaborator Drew Fulk [AS I LAY DYING, A DAY TO REMEMBER], who produced and mixed 2018’s The Silver Scream.
