In the middle of their extensive, nearly sold-out “Silver Scream-A-Thon Tour” and opening for Metallica in stadiums, metalcore powerhouse Ice Nine Kills have reached yet another milestone: their first RIAA certified gold single. The honor goes to the 2018 hit “A Grave Mistake”, a fan-favorite track inspired by the film The Crow, taken from the band’s career-defining album The Silver Scream. Watch the official music video for the single below:
Vocalist Spencer Charnas shares an unusual, robotic-sounding statement on the news: "I am filled with human emotions after ingesting the data that my musical ensemble has achieved a golden status for the very first time. Programmed with a hauntingly harmonic minor cadence, 175 bpm, and a 3/4 time signature, it sufficiently garnered more than half a million sales equivalents."
Additionally, fans can hear the track on Ice Nine Kills’ new live album, I Heard They Kill Live 2, which features the fully recorded set of the band’s hometown “Thankskilling” performance at the Tsongas Center in Lowell, MA to a sold-out crowd on November 17, 2022. This surprise release comes 5 years after the original I Heard They Kill Live, giving fans another chance to sonically experience one of the band’s intense, captivating performances. The new live album features an 11-track setlist that spans the band’s greatest hits and fan-favorites from their highly influential albums The Silver Scream and The Silver Scream 2: Welcome to Horrorwood.
About the new release, Spencer Charnas adds: “Captured in optimal performance conditions during a sold-out operation in the geographical region of Massachusetts, this album contains high-energy sonic outputs calibrated for maximum efficiency. As a result, these auditory data files will undoubtedly prove supremely satisfactory to the devoted Ice Nine Kills user base, aka, the Cyclos!”
