KILLSWITCH ENGAGE Release 'Disarm THE Descent', Here Is Our Review!


The day has arrived, today (April 2) KILLSWITCH ENGAGE are proud to release their sixth studio album 'Disarm THE Descent' via Roadrunner Records. The record is the first one with Jesse Leach on vocals since 2002's 'Alive Or Just Breathing'.

If you have not listened to the bands latest effort, you must! While KSE have always been a great band and have released a lot of good records, this is the ultimate KSE record. As we reported at the end of last year, Jesse revitalized the band as soon as he returned to the fold. He also saved the band from having to call it a day, following the departure of Howard Jones. Read on...

After spending hours at a rehearsal studio in New York City to find the proper replacement for Jones, the band were actually exhausted from endless auditions that were not hitting the sweet spot. After taking a short New York Pizza break, Jesse arrived and the three song audition turned into a full set. While the KSE dudes knew Jesse was the right choice from the moment the jam started, they made him wait a few days before bringing him to the band that he should have never left.

On 'Disarm The Descent', you can tell that all of the band members are very happy not only personally, but creatively. And a happy band writes great music. This words posted yesterday by Jesse say it all:

"Have I told you lately that I love you?

"Spent the day at "Fuse" doing an exclusive interview and it hit me?!! !Tomorrow is the big final release day for "Disarm the Descent"! So grateful for everyone's support and love! It has been a crazy and amazing year for me. Looking forward to getting back on the tour bus in 5 days! Cheers and One Love people!"


The production process itself, which was lead by the bands guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz and mixed by Andy Sneap, is evidence that musical magic was created by the KSE crew:

- Jesse Leach (vocals)

- Mike D'Antonio (bass)
- Adam Dutkiewicz and Joel Stroetzel (guitars)
- Justin Foley (drums)


Here is the track listing:

01. The Hell In Me
02. Beyond The Flames
03. New Awakening
04. In Due Time
05. A Tribute To The Fallen
06. The Turning Point
07. All That We Have
08. You Don't Bleed For Me
09. The Call
10. No End In Sight
11. Always
12. Time Will Not Remain

KILLSWITCH ENGAGE: Jesse Leach Shares Some Wise Words About Being "Considerate"



Recently, New England Metallers KILLSWITCH ENGAGE wrapped up the 10th anniversary tour for their groundbreaking album 'Alive Or Just Breathing'. So what's next for the KSE crew? Well, the band will be unleashing a brand NEW album, their sixth studio album and first one with Jesse Leach since 2002's 'Alive Or Just Breathing', on April 2 via Roadrunner Records. More details HERE!

In between writing and recording
"the record of his career" and touring extensively ever since he rejoined the band, Jesse has been blogging for Gun Shy Assassin. On his latest installment, Jesse discusses being "Considerate".

When Killswitch Engage frontman Jesse Leach isn't touring or writing "the record of his career" he puts pen to paper (or fingers to keys) to discuss his observations of the world at large. In his most recent essay for Gun Shy Assassin, Leach ponders the topic of being "Considerate". A short excerpt follows:

"How many people do you know are truly considerate? Are you? It blows my mind how self-involved we can all be in our daily life; I know I am. I have moments where I have to check myself, hold my tongue or just stop and reflect on a situation before reacting. Being self-aware is a trait that is rare in people and something you have to work on daily... Even if you are a 'tough' person with 'thick skin,' deep down, people’s words and/or actions effect us whether we know it or not.

"It’s like the 'bully' at school that picks on everyone and you find out his dad beats him and abuses him mentally, physically or what have you. We are products of our environments. This is also how people become over privileged ego maniacs in the world of entertainment and celebrity. Trust me, I know a few. When people constantly praise you and tell you how amazing you are, if you don’t have a humble upbringing or true friends to ground you, it changes you. If only parents raised their children correctly, but we all know that is going to be an ongoing problem. No one is perfect right? So what about you, seriously—what about you? The only reason I write these columns is to connect with some one out there, to share my miniscule yet hope filled perspective (and hopefully make you, the reader, think a bit). So I ask the obvious rhetorical question: Are you considerate to people in your daily life or are you just out for yours?"

Comeback Of The Year 2012 In Heavy Music: The Return Of Jesse Leach To KILLSWITCH ENGAGE!

On Sunday, December 16th New England Metallers KILLSWITCH ENGAGE took over the Music Hall Of Williamburg in Brooklyn, New York, and celebrated the 10th anniversary of their groundbreaking album 'Alive Or Just Breathing'.

Following the bands ferocious and legendary set, it became very clear to us that Jesse Leach's return to the band is by far the comeback of the year 2012 in Heavy Music! Not only did the return of Leach revitalize the band and influenced their upcoming studio album (due in April of 2013 via Roadrunner Records), but it will surely help to keep Heavy Music rising in 2013 and beyond.

Here is a video special we produced in commemoration of KILLSWITCH ENGAGE's latest accomplishment!





There are only 2 shows on this NOT to be missed tour, which also features SHADOWS FALL and ACARO!

- December 27: Baltimore, MD at Rams Head Live
- December 29: Clifton Park, NY at Upstate Concert Hall

SHADOWS FALL's Brian Fair Discusses Touring With KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, Pass Times & NEW Baby!


Earlier this year, the seventh studio album by New England Metallers Shadows Fall entitled 'Fire From The Sky' was released via Razor & Tie records. The NEWEST Shadows Fall album was recorded at Zing Studios in Westfield, Massachusetts with producer and friend of the band Adam Dutkiewicz, guitarist for Killswitch Engage and Times Of Grace. Adam D. was also involved in the writing process of the album. Click here to purchase the NEW Shadows Fall album 'Darkness From The Sky'

So when KILLSWITCH ENGAGE announced their North American tour dates for the 10th anniversary tour for their groundbreaking album 'Alive Or Just Breathing', it was no surprise that they recruited SHADOWS FALL as direct support for their celebratory trek.

We were present at one of the tours last stops at Music Hall Of Williamsburg in Brooklyn, NY, and once again Shadows Fall proved to be one of the best bands to ever come from the New England region both on and off stage. 

Prior to the bands ferocious set, we took over their bus and sat down with Brian Fair (vocalist) to discuss the relationship between SHADOWS FALL and KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, and how it felt to be touring together for the first time in many years. We also discussed the bands future plans and he even broke the news to us that him and his wife Abigail (who owns Sweet Seed Textiles) are expecting their first child. We also discussed Brian's love for skateboarding, beer, music and... without further due, here is our interview with Brian Fall from Shadows Motherfuc*ing Goddamn Fall!



SHADOWS FALL & KILLSWITCH ENGAGE Holiday Shows:

- Dec 27: Rams Head Live in Baltimore, MD
- Dec 28: Sherman Theater in Stroudsburg, PA
