Ice Nine Kills & Reel Big Fish Cover Katrina and The Waves' “Walking On Sunshine” from “American Psycho” Comic Series Soundtrack
American heavy metal band Ice Nine Kills and American ska punk band Reel Big Fish teamed up to release a cover of British rock band Katrina and The Waves' “Walking On Sunshine” on July 9, 2024.
The song is taken from the upcoming “American Psycho” comic series soundtrack.
The original version of the song was released by Katrina and The Waves from their debut album of the same name in 1983.
Katrina and The Waves rerecorded the song for their 1985 self-titled album.
The track was written by Kimberley Rew. The coverversion was produced by KThrash.
The accompanying music video was directed by Drake Booth.
Ice Nine Kills frontman Spencer Charnas said of the song, “It's no secret to INK fans that ska punk and horror movies are what pumps through my bloodstream. When the opportunity arose to combine one of my favourite films with one of my favourite bands of all time, I didn't just jump at the chance, I skanked over to my nail gun, axe and chainsaw and bludgeoned out my favourite cover we've ever done.”- President of Sumerian Comics, Nathan Yocum said, “We are thrilled to have ICE NINE KILLS performing a cover of Walking On Sunshine for the soundtrack to our American Psycho comic book series. Their unique blend of theatricality and intensity perfectly complements the dark and twisted themes of our story. This collaboration brings an exciting new dimension to the project, and we can’t wait for fans to experience this iconic song like never before.”
