Hillhaven, Featuring Members of Ice Nine Kills + From Ashes to New, Share "Sycophants"
Earlier this year, members of Ice Nine Kills and From Ashes to New formed a brand new band called HILLHAVEN and recently they dropped their fourth single Sychophants along with a new music video. It follows the buzzy prior singles "Damned to Dream," "The God You Think You Are," and "GAPS." This latest single is only another taste of what’s to come from this super group as fans patiently await the news of their upcoming album.
"I think this might be the one we've all been most excited about, especially after shooting the video. It kind of felt like we were all getting a little peek at what a Hillhaven show might actually look like and, honestly, it doesn't get any less fun to watch, which I've done more times than I care to admit. There's an energy and charisma to this song that makes you wanna let loose and that's exactly what we did on set; one of those 'core-memory' type moments for us. Is party moshing a thing? Because it might have to be now."
- says singer Chris Kelly
The Hillhaven lineup is comprised of the aforementioned Kelly (Alustrium, ex-Galactic Empire, and who is rumored to play for Babymetal's band) on vocals, as well as From Ashes to New's Maty Madiro on drums; Ice Nine Kills' Ricky Armellino on guitars; live From Ashes to New member Jimmy Bennett on guitars; and bassist Jaime GoWell.
