Killswitch Engage set to record new album

Killswitch Engage will enter the studio this winter to record their as-yet untitled fourth album for Roadrunner Records. For the first time in their career, the band will work with an outside producer and have chosen Brendan O'Brien (Rage Against the Machine) to man the boards. KsE guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz, who has recorded all of the group's previous albums, will co-produce the effort. Tracking will take place in Georgia and Western Massachusetts, and Roadrunner expects to release the record in spring 2009.

piecemaker 12/4/2008 1:14:03 PM

Their production gets cleaner and more pristine with each new release, but theyre getting lamer and lamer and its pretty unfortunate.

shit_spasm 12/4/2008 1:21:18 PM

fromheavensdarkestcorner 12/4/2008 5:00:26 PM

Hopefully they can put a little more metal back into it, then howard gives us a damn BHBS album already!!!

ricardoblanco770 12/4/2008 5:24:00 PM

you guys who want jesse back what is the deal? howard is way better though the writing on the albums that he is on went downhill a little. his work with bhbs proves that he is better in my opinion. look at jesse now seemless sucks balls!!!

globaldisaster 12/4/2008 5:41:58 PM

uuhh.. oh yeah. no care

willxcore 12/4/2008 5:51:24 PM

SEAMAN 12/4/2008 12:39:48 PM their fourth album with roadrunner, you dumbass. it says it right there. my bad for not realizing that they weren't on RR when they released their self-titled album. gay. take things seriously.

ABC44 12/4/2008 9:58:54 PM

I am so very excited for this to come out, and curious to hear what they are going to sound like with a new producer.

upsidedown_cross 12/4/2008 10:01:31 PM

I wish their daylight would die and they would go crawl in a hole and fck each other and stop making music.

NoTalentAssclown 12/4/2008 10:18:33 PM

hopefully they just stay in the studio and record the BHBS will they're there

iheartemmurexxx 12/4/2008 10:55:17 PM

i can't wait!!!!!

sgd54 12/4/2008 11:10:07 PM

I guess, from what I've heard, this is a concept album: about men engaging in sexually explicit conduct.

badaxe 12/5/2008 12:02:32 AM

I'm very proud of the fact that I never liked this band.

mortimer 12/5/2008 2:40:57 AM

i love adam's "when darkness falls' jokes. "this next song is about god forbid on a skateboard! it's called....WHEN DARKNESS FALLS." "this next song is about what happens when howard takes his pants off! it's called..." good times.

conduit 12/5/2008 3:58:13 AM

KSE with Jesse > KSE with Howard Howards BHBS vocals are rad, but they seem watered down for KSE
