About Killswitch Engage

Killswitch Engage is an American metalcore band that has been captivating their fans with their unique blend of heavy metal and hardcore punk since their formation in 1999. The band's original lineup consisted of vocalist Jesse Leach, guitarists Joel Stroetzel and Adam Dutkiewicz, bassist Mike D'Antonio, and drummer Justin Foley. Their fans appreciate their innovative sound, which combines melodic elements with aggressive, heavy riffs. Killswitch Engage's debut album, released in 2000, was a self-titled effort that introduced their fans to their distinctive sound. The band's second album, "Alive or Just Breathing," released in 2002, was a critical success and is considered a landmark album in the metalcore genre. This album marked the departure of Leach, who was replaced by Howard Jones, a change that was initially met with mixed reactions from their fans. Despite the lineup change, Killswitch Engage continued to produce music that resonated with their fans. Their 2004 album, "The End of Heartache," was a commercial success, earning a Grammy nomination for the title track. The band's subsequent albums, including "As Daylight Dies" and "Killswitch Engage II," further solidified their status as a leading force in the metalcore scene. In 2012, Jones left the band and Leach returned to the fold, a move that was warmly welcomed by their fans. Since then, Killswitch Engage has released several more albums, including "Disarm the Descent," "Incarnate," and "Atonement," all of which have been well-received by their fans and critics alike. Killswitch Engage is known for their energetic live performances, which often feature intense interaction with their fans.
