In the wake of spooky season, horror themed, metalcore icons Ice Nine Kills have continued to innovate and find new ways to connect with their fanbase by launching the Psychos Only Club app. The innovative app based community will provide access to a private community of likeminded fans in one location as well as unprecedented access to all things Ice Nine Kills, including band member social media feeds, music, videos, photo galleries, tour dates, merchandise and updates about the band.
Members of the app will have the ability to create their own profiles, share their own video and photo content, follow and direct message other psychos, and exchange virtual gifts. Even further, the Psychos Only experience is gameified, meaning the most engaged members will get rewarded with achievement levels and virtual coins/currency (known as Kill-ency) to unlock exclusive content. Fans will get opportunities to engage directly with Ice Nine Kills, participate in gore filled horror trivia, killer challenges & giveaways, and watch parties! They will also gain exclusive access to members only merchandise, tickets + VIP RIP Packages and much more.
“This is going to add a killer new dimension to the INK fandom universe!” says Ice Nine Kills frontman and leader Spencer Charnas. “Complete with exclusive never before see content, this will allow our audience to break down the barrier between band and fan and see what really happens behind the screams.”
Ice Nine Kills encapsulate the best elements of metal, punk and hard rock, while combining it with their signature melody, cinematic obsession, and a literary fascination. They stand apart, authentic and ever-devoted to their fans just as their fans are devoted to them. They deject the modern landscape of celebrity fakes and would-be influencers. The visionaries have focused their energies on creating a community with theatrical shows, high-concept videos, and inventive band-to-fan communion. Loudwire hailed them as “one of the most unique acts in metal right now,” a declaration supported by the band’s Billboard Hard Rock Albums chart topping slab, The Silver Scream.
Always on the lookout for ways to celebrate the things they love and get creative, they released a new mini-documentary to celebrate the 45th anniversary of the iconic Jaws a few months back, called Ice Nine Kills and the Jaws Harpoon Gun, along with a limited edition merch collection. The movie inspired INK’s track “Rocking The Boat” off their 2018 album, The Silver Scream. The Silver Scream (and the extended edition, The Silver Scream: Final Cut) delivered anthems for the disenfranchised and subculture obsessives, like “The American Nightmare” and “A Grave Mistake and Savages” and broke them into Active Rock radio, with hit track “A Grave Mistake” charting at #9. With 1 million monthly listeners on Spotify, a combined social media reach of over 762k and over 70 million views on Youtube, the band are steadily putting down roots as one of modern metal’s most popular and innovative forces.
