Full album stream. Pretty vicious for some old head Slayer babies

New Killswitch album came out today. I got a little more than halfway through it and am fairly bummed with it because I was really hoping these guys would stretch out a bit and not release the same album they’ve been releasing since Jesse got back in the band.

Great guitar tones, as usual. Some great riffs here and there, but it’s just paint by numbers KsE and it’s really worn off me at this point. There’s pitch correction on every clean vocal and while it’s not the obvious Autotune sound, it’s all very clearly corrected. One song popped up, a clean guitar break comes with Adam singing and I think “Ah, now Jesse is gonna scream the first line of the chorus, whole band pause and come back in together for the last chorus” and that’s exactly what happened.

There’s still a few songs left, maybe there’ll be something cool, but I know I won’t be listening to this one again.

Wow. Are they the Nickleback of Metalcore now??




I have liked the 2 songs I have heard. It sounds like KSE. Maybe even more concise and trimmed down.

I am eager to listen to the entire Album. Maybe tomorrow while I am vacuuming and cleaning up the house.

Like I told my friend who loves them and hasn't heard it yet, you might find some killer tunes on there and this could be entirely me wishing for something I don't think they'll deliver at this point. I also suppose I should be looking more to Times Of Grace for what I'm looking for from KsE. I need to re-listen to the second album. They wrote that one after both got divorced for similar reasons to mine, it came out when it was all new to me and hit wayyyyy too close to home.

Such a great chorus melody and performance and all those layered single notes making a moody bed for it...AND chugs and squealies!
