    Spencer Charnas discusses Ice Nine Kills “A Work of Art”

    Just in time for Halloween, Ice Nine Kills frontman Spencer Charnas returns to the show for the third time to discuss the writing and recording of their chaotic 2024 single, “A Work of Art.” The song is a true audio assault, which is appropriate considering its source of inspiration: the third installment of Damien Leone’s gory horror franchise Terrifier. Chris and Spencer once again explore the band’s signature fusion of brutal riffs, theatrical flair, and film homage, diving deep into the cinematic soundscapes, grisly lyrical imagery, and dynamic vocals that bring the song to life. Despite the breakneck changes and interludes, it’s a gigantic, undeniable chorus that brings this massive track together, and every aspect of its creation is explored in this week’s episode.
