Spencer Charnas

Spencer Charnas is the lead vocalist, songwriter, and creative force behind the horror-themed metal band Ice Nine Kills. Born and raised in Swampscott, Massachusetts, he combined his lifelong love of horror films and heavy music to create a uniquely theatrical style know as "theatricore." The band's music is primarily described as horror-themed metalcore, but incorporates many other musical styles. It was originally a ska punk band called Ice Nine, formed in 2000 by high school friends Spencer Charnas and Jeremy Schwartz, before adopting a metalcore style in 2010. Charnas is currently the only remaining founding member. The band is signed to Fearless Records.
