Killswitch Engage


OK lets get started on the music, Killswitch Engage, an amazing band that my friends like to make fun of me for liking all the time, but MEH i don't care they are awesome. Killswitch is basically the first band to combine Metal and hardcore. Having had lost there singer and moved the drummer to guitar and having to replace there replacement drummer they now have 2 guitars, a bass, a singer and a drummer and thousands of loyal fans. Yes they sing sometime, not scream all the time but you know what, both their singer and their guitarist both have great voices, singing and screaming. Personally i think it adds meaning to their songs and is one of the reasons they are as big as they are. with fast and slow beats on the drums, catchy lyrics and catchy guitar riffs they have been able to overcome everything in the band and came out even better every time. With thousands of fans, going all over the world and getting nominated for a Grammy for their song "End Of Heartache" i would say they have done well for themselves. I think one of the reasons killswitch Engage has gotten so big, are yes they are a metal band but just listen to their lyrics they are almost always uplifting and have a positive message. So as for me and killswitch, they will always be one of my favorite bands and i doubt i will ever stop listening to them.
