Spencer Charnas & Ice Nine Kills will bring their twisted metalcore to Lowell’s Tsongas Centre for the Thanx Killing concert this year.  Ice Nine Kills T-shirt 's a fitting setting for the Boston-based group who have created an enviable position within the music industry through scouring the slasher movies of Hollywood's underground for an inspiration.It's a theme that makes its way into Welcome To Horrorwood, the follow-up to 2013's The Silver Scream. Although the former was a significant ode to the VHS library's worth of classic celluloid films, its sequel is more bloody, more fleshed-out continuation of the theme.Kane Hodder, the machete-wielding hero from Friday the 13th, is a guest vocalist on the album. These themes are also brought into play in the band's music videos with high-concept and inventive merch drop campaign for this album cycle, which has already featured an Hellfire Club tee, tank top, sweater and long sleeve shirt.It's not hard to figure out the reason Ice Nine Kills have been so successful in their implementation of this concept. They've created a world full of the unimaginable for their fans with their theatrical shows, original music videos, and ingenuous communication from band to fan.
