Killswitch Engage

[Zombie-F]

I picked up Killswitch Engage's new album The End of Heartache yesterday. Wow. That's all I can say. I never thought that they'd be able to match the greatness of their previous effort Alive or Just Breathing, but they did. They also managed to snag a new singer and make it work, which so many other bands never manage to do too successfully.

[Non Compos Mentis]

I heard numerous tracks off this album before it was released and it is damn good.
Pick up Blood Has Been Shed- Spirals. Howard Jones also sings for this band.

You should also check out: All That Remains, Beyond The Embrace and Byzantine.

Killswitch and Inflames are doing a show at the Palladium in Worcester soon.

[The Shape]

This album is definitely an EXCELLENT addition to the metal genre. It not only has great heavy riffs with some shredding overtones, but it also has some great melodic songs. I liked the original singer of KsE, but I think Howard Jones is even better. He's got great range, and has hints of Mike Patton in his voice.

This is a definite must by for any metal fan, and as Non Compos mentioned, I also suggest All That Remains. More great riffs, shreds, and solos.

It is a great time to be a metal fan! (especially in the Massachusetts metal scene!)

[Lilith]

Have a few demo songs of them. Very cool band. ^^ I like their sound.
