Right before the turn of the century, casual jam sessions between a group of friends unassumingly lit the fuse for an insane 25 year ride to follow. Hailing from Western Massachusetts (where the only thing icier than the freeway in winter is the blunt sense of humor shared by the locals), Killswitch Engage — Adam Dutkiewicz [guitar], Joel Stroetzel [guitar], Mike D’Antonio [bass], Justin Foley [drums], and Jesse Leach [vocals] — always stood apart. For as deadly serious as their airtight technical riffing is, they also knew how to have a good time, riling up crowds with uncontainable energy and unpredictable performances. They could bludgeon with the best of them or serve up the kind of sing-along banger you could blast with the windows down. From day one, they naturally appealed to the headbangers, hardcore kids, and heartbroken alike. Killswitch Engage harness all of their strengths on their ninth full-length album, "This Consequence". They’ve distilled the hallmarks of their signature sound into a bruising, often brutal, and at times brilliantly bright body of work.
