Ice Nine Kills release new EP ‘Undead & Unplugged – Live From The Overlook Hotel’
ICE NINE KILLS have released a new EP!
Titled Undead & Plugged – Live From The Overlook Hotel, the brand new EP from the horror-themed metalcore band.
The five track acoustic EP recorded at their very special fan event in association with Colorado’s 107.9 KBPI at The Stanley Hotel, more famously known as The Overlook Hotel from classic horror movie, The Shining.
Amid a successful run on 2019’s SiriusXM Octane Accelerator Tour, the band stopped at The Stanley Hotel to play a set for small group of fans in Colorado from their latest album The Silver Scream. For the very special fan event, the band transformed several songs into acoustic sing-a-longs including A Grave Mistake, Savages and The Shining inspired Enjoy Your Slay. The Undead & Unplugged Live From The Overlook Hotel EP is a live recording of this intimate acoustic show.

Speaking on the release of Undead & Unplugged – Live From The Overlook Hotel, frontman and creative force behind ICE NINE KILLS, Spencer Charnas says, “we decided to release this EP now to celebrate the 40th anniversary of The Shining, one of the most influential horror movies of all time. As a life-long horror fan, I was thrilled when we were able to enlist the help of Stanley Kubrick’s grandson, Sam to provide guest vocals on the original version of our track, Enjoy Your Slay and we were equally thrilled when The Stanley Hotel invited us to play in their infamous ballroom for this special, intimate, sold-out fan event.
The biggest highlight for me was getting to see the real Room 237 (217 in the book), the setting for one of the most terrifying scenes in The Shining. We got some intel from an employee who told us that whilst shooting Dumb and Dumber, which also features The Stanley Hotel, Jim Carey had insisted on staying in Room 217 but got so freaked out on the first night, he had leave the room. We’d like to thank 107.9 KBPI for helping to make this show a possibility and all the Colorado Psychos that came out to make this intimate, unplugged show so special.”
