For fans of the metalcore band Ice Nine Kills, horror and music are two inseparable elements that make their music unique. Combining their love for gruesome tales with heavy guitar riffs, Ice Nine Kills has created a genre-defying sound that has captured the hearts of fans around the world. And now, they have taken their signature style beyond the realm of music with their new official apparel line: Tales of Terror.
The concept behind Tales of Terror is to bring to life some of the most iconic horror stories through fashion. Band founder Spencer Charnas explains, “Growing up, I was always drawn to horror movies and books. I loved how they created a sense of fear and excitement within me. With our band’s lyrical themes revolving around these classic tales, it only made sense to expand into other forms.
Drawing inspiration from characters like Pennywise from Stephen King’s “It,” Freddy Krueger from “A Nightmare on Elm Street,” and Jason Voorhees from “Friday the 13th,” each item in Tales of Terror’s collection features intricate designs that pay homage to these infamous villains.
But it’s not just about looking cool – there is a deeper message behind each design. As Charnas puts it, “Our apparel is meant for those who dare to stand out from the crowd and represent something different.” The aim is clear – embrace your unique tastes and be unapologetically yourself.
The collection includes T-shirts, hoodies, hats, pins, patches and much more – all inspired by iconic moments in horror history. For instance, there are T-shirts featuring Jason Voorhees holding his trademark machete with lyrics from ice nine kills Official Merch‘ song “Jason’s Mom!” emblazoned on them; or hoodies adorned with Nurse Ratched illustrated as Pennywise alongside lyrics from their song “IT Is The End.” Each piece is carefully crafted to appeal to both horror and music fans.
But what sets Tales of Terror apart from other merchandise collections is its limited edition items. These exclusive pieces are released in limited quantities and feature never-before-seen designs, making them true collector’s items for die-hard fans.
In a world where merchandising has become an essential part of being a successful artist, Ice Nine Kills has managed to stay true to themselves and their unique style. They have created a line that not only reflects their love for horror but also encourages their fans to embrace their individuality.
With Tales of Terror, Ice Nine Kills has taken the band’s identity beyond music and given fans an opportunity to express themselves through fashion. As Charnas puts it, “It’s all about coming together as a community that shares our love for horror and metal.
So whether you’re heading out to see them on tour or just looking for some new apparel that will make you stand out in the crowd, check out the chillingly cool collection from Tales of Terror. Who knows – maybe it’ll summon your inner scream queen or king. After all, as Ice Nine Kills’ lyrics state: “Every good story needs an ending…and this is mine!
