Killswitch Engage

[official website] - [official myspace]

By: Jennifer D.

This hardcore band from Boston, Mass. is one of a kind. Because not only do they make awesome music but they have true p ersonality. Each band member is hilarious with their different onstage antics all while being incredible musicians. They have 4 CDs all of which get better and better (it’s true!). Howard’s voice is like no other and in between screams he is able to somehow make each chorus catchy. I personally love this band because the music (lyrics, singing, guitar, drumming, bass, live show) is just altogether really good.

Recommendations:
“The Element of One” – starts off slow then breaks into a catchy hardcore beat. The lyrics are about sacrificing everything you have for the one you love. The singer is actually the band’s former singer who does just a good a job as new singer, Howard.

“The End of Heartache” – Nominated for a grammy. What hardcore band do you know, that gets nominated for a grammy? ‘Nough said.

“This is Absolution” – from their latest CD. The lyrics are about staying strong through a depressing time. Lots of goosebumps.

ALSO!, be sure to check out their DVD. It’s entitled “Set This World Ablaze” and it features a full live concert as well as a documentary (which will have you on the floor laughing).
