Do you like Ice Nine Kills?

Their early work was a little bit too scene for me But when The Silver Scream came out I think they really came into their own Commercially and artistically The whole album has a refined melodic sensibility that really makes it a cut above the rest

Source. I just can't see anything related to American Psycho anymore without thinking of Ice Nine Kills' brilliant homage to it

Haha. Listening to it right now, didn't realize your comment was from it.

Not gonna lie, that track slaps. I've heard a couple other songs from them, and also thought they were too scene for my liking.

Although I do quite like their "walking on sunshine" with reel big fish. I think that's the only song I heard previously of theirs that I liked.

I'll check out some of their other stuff. Thanks for posting.

I've listened to Every Trick in The Book a few too many times and its really cool for capturing the ambience of books you may or may not have read in high school. My favorite song by them is Me, Myself and Hyde which does some really cool stuff with Dr Jeckyl's parts being performed in clean vocals with acoustic strings accompanying and Mr Hyde's parts in unclean vocals, with Mr Hyde taking over more and more as the song progresses.

Bloodbath and Beyond is another strong contender as well
