Artist: Killswitch Engage

The results are in from our last poll, in which you voted by a landslide that Guns N' Roses' Chinese Democracy was the best new album from a legacy act in 2008. 2009 is right around the corner, and it's already shaping up to be a pretty big year in metal if for no other [...]

Here's a list of bands confirmed to play German festival Rock Am Ring on 05-07 June 2009.

Who wants to take a bet that Slipknot are going to headline Download 2009? Bands confirmed for Rock Am Ring 2009 Billy Talent [...]

We just got a press release from the fine people at Roadrunner Records announcing that Killswitch Engage will begin recording their not-yet-titled fourth studio record, the followup to the almost gold As Daylight Dies. It was your typical press release with fancy adjectives describing the band and talking about their recent successes. One part stuck [...]

Massachusetts metalcore supremos, Killswitch Engage have announced they are to release their as-yet-untitled fourth album through Roadrunner Records in Spring 2009. It will be produced by Brendan O'Brien (AC/DC, Rage Against The Machine, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots) and guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz. The band will be recording in Massachusetts and Georgia and it will be good.

We just received a press release via pneumatic tube here at the MetalSucks Mansion confirming what we've known through the rumor mill for some time - Brendan O'Brien will be producing the new Killswitch Engage record, due in Spring 2009. This is kind of surprising... but kind of not. KsE has been broadening their sound, moving in [...]

Yeah, we know it's a little hokey, but with an American holiday centered around food consumption close at hand, any post involving the topic of stuffing our gullets is apropos. We even feature one band that we didn't have to bastardize in order to gormandize. Think of it as a little trivia dog wrapped in a big, buttery, campy croissant. Any and all user submitted parody names and Photoshops are encouraged in the comments. Have at it! Full list after the jump. 25. Explosions in the Pie [...]

Killswitch Engage's Adam D discusses solo project Killswitch Engage mad genius Adam Dutkiewicz has revealed details on his new solo project dubbed Days Of Grace and an album he's been working on. He says, "It's a funny story, I ended up writing a bunch of songs after I destroyed my back. I pretty much wrote a whole record in my brain while I was lying in hospital. I thought that I wasn't going to walk for a little while so the record is about having [...]

In the spirit of our infamous Cripple on Cripple and Beard on Beard interviews (with Dillinger Escape Plan's Ben Weinman and Killswitch Engage's Justin Foley, respectively), we here at the MetalSucks School of Rabbinical Studies would like to introduce a new feature we hope will be ongoing but fear won't, due to the, err... somewhat [...]

Mistakes Last week's blog was a fiery debate about politics, racism and the age old subject of musicians keeping their mouth shut and just sticking to music. As most of you know, I don't adhere to the policy of musicians or artists keeping their mouths shut about politics whether they're informed or not. I think [...]

Seems like an odd time for Killswitch Engage to release a new video, seeing as they're reportedly heading into the studio this month to record the follow-up to 2006's Daylight Dies - but more Killswitch is never a bad thing, so fuck it, right? Live footage / road footage videos are great for record labels [...]

Mike explained the process: "I'm one [...]

According to a Myspace post by Jesse Leach ( Seemless , Ex- Killswitch Engage ), he has been working in collaboration with Adam Dutkiewicz (Killswitch Engage) on a project due out by the end of the year. Adam D has been spending much of his time recuperating from back surgery writing new material. With a solid albums' worth (titled "Days of Grace"), it seemed only fitting to Mr. D that Jesse provide the vocals. Fondly remembering these two as part of the killer dynamic behind Killswitch's "Alive [...]

Metalcore is, like, dead dudes. It's not us saying so - it's Howard Jones. No, not that Howard Jones, either. The one from Killswitch Engage is reading the last rites: "The dream's over dude! .... It'll still be around, because kids love heavy music; they love to be aggressive. But it won't get as much mainstream attention as it's been getting. So mark my words there. It's already happening." Yeah, the heady days when metalcore was on the front of Newsweek and Killswitch Engage were invited to record the theme [...]
