The long-awaited new Killswitch Engage<\/a><\/strong> record is just about done! In a new update from Killswitch Engage<\/a><\/strong> vocalist Jesse Leach<\/strong>, the record is almost complete and features some of his best (and most diverse) vocal offerings to date. The new record will be Killswitch Engage<\/a><\/strong>‘s first since Atonement<\/em> in 2019, and is said to be fairly different from anything they’ve done before<\/a>.<\/p>\n “This album has been a great challenge for me. Now that it’s almost complete I can say I wouldn’t change a thing! All the trials, difficulties and deep anxieties were all worth what this record is shaping up to be.<\/p>\n “I don’t ever half ass anything in my creative life. I can say this with the utmost confidence, I gave this my everything and it will show.<\/p>\n “I’ve said it before and I’ll say it until the day I die, Adam D<\/strong> is my musical soulmate and a FORCE in my life as an artist, writer and musician. His role in my growth as a writer can’t be overstated. The man just knows how to get that performance out of me. I just don’t think I’ll ever have the synergy with anyone else in my life as a musician.<\/p>\n “Also the lessons, insights and support of [vocal coach Melissa Cross<\/strong>] saved me and continue to guide me. I’ve learned new techniques (fry) that I use here and there but more importantly I’ve been able to really rediscovered my original style (false chord) on a whole other level because of her. The blend and the knowledge of the over all inner workings of the voice have empowered me to do things I didn’t think I could still do.<\/p>\n “I’ve also really learned to sing with more ease and confidence and it’s been super liberating to me. Pure POWER, grit, intensity and smooth big Melodie’s are the result of all of it. I pulled out all of my arsenal of vocal weapons and left it all on this recording. Even if people don’t like or naysay what we’ve done I could die happy knowing I gave this shit my ALL.<\/p>\n “I feel a true sense of satisfaction. I stood my ground when I needed to and I acquiesced and changed when it was needed. The end result is the culmination of 2 years of hardcore work.”<\/p>\n
