With “INKtober” fully upon us, horror-themed metalcore outfit Ice Nine Kills are looking to celebrate the best way possible with the announcement of a brand new live album.
Titled I Heard They Kill Live!! (a play on NOFX’s I Heard They Suck Live!!), the new live recording from their sold-out hometown show at the Worcester Palladium is set to hit streaming services just in time for Halloween.
Talking about the 19-track LP due out October 30th via Fearless Records, frontman Spencer Charnas says, “The Worcester Palladium holds a very special place in the heart of INK’s history. On September 22nd, 2000, I attended a Goldfinger/Mest concert there that changed the course of my life. I knew after that incredibly high-energy show that I wanted to dedicate my life to writing and performing my own music.”
“One year later,” he adds, “INK’s first show would take place on the very same stage at a battle of the bands that we did not win. The concert is pictured in this album insert. 18 years later we sold out the very same 3,000 capacity venue and recorded this live album there—a full circle moment that I will never forget. This album is dedicated to the INK psychos who allow us to make murder and mayhem an actual career.”
Giving fans a taste of what’s in store on the new album, the band has also premiered a new live video for their track “Stabbing In The Dark.” To check out the video, be sure to see below. Afterward, make sure to grab a pre-order bundle which also includes tickets to Ice Nine Kill’s upcoming can’t miss livestream event.
