Our Take
Our Take
The latest offering from metalcore veterans Killswitch Engage, "Atonement," is like a punch in the face from a velvet glove. With their signature blend of aggressive riffs, ear-splitting screams, and captivating melodies, the band proves once again why they are considered pioneers of the genre.
Lead vocalist Jesse Leach's primal screams and soaring cleans are as powerful as ever, effortlessly weaving through the intricate guitar work of Adam Dutkiewicz and Joel Stroetzel. Tracks like "Unleashed" and "The Crownless King" are sure to incite mosh pits galore, while the haunting ballad "I Am Broken Too" showcases the band's softer side.
But what sets "Atonement" apart from their previous releases is the guest appearances from metal heavyweights like Chuck Billy of Testament and Howard Jones of Light the Torch. Their contributions add a new layer of intensity to an already powerhouse album.
At times, the production can feel a bit cluttered, with layers upon layers of sound competing for attention. However, this only adds to the chaotic beauty of Killswitch Engage's music, creating an immersive experience that demands repeated listens.
Overall, "Atonement" is a thrilling ride from start to finish, showcasing a band that has not lost an ounce of their ferocity after more than two decades in the game. If you're a fan of bone-crushing breakdowns, shredding solos, and anthemic choruses, then look no further than Killswitch Engage's latest masterpiece.

About the artist
Killswitch Engage
KILLSWITCH ENGAGE may sound like a red button you definitely don't want to press, but trust us, this band is anything but a bringer of doom. Hailing from Massachusetts, these metalcore legends have been melting faces and breaking hearts since the late '90s with their unique blend of aggression and melody. Led by the dynamic duo of Jesse Leach and Adam Dutkiewicz, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE are known for their explosive live performances, where Leach's powerful vocals soar over Dutkiewicz's crushing riffs like a falcon riding a thunderstorm. With a discography that reads like a who's who of modern metal classics, including iconic albums like "Alive or Just Breathing" and "As Daylight Dies", these guys are the real deal. But don't let their ferocious sound fool you - KILLSWITCH ENGAGE are also masters of the unexpected. Just when you think you've got them pegged as a bunch of angry headbangers, they'll hit you with a soul-stirring ballad that will have you reaching for the tissues faster than you can say "mosh pit". In a world full of pretenders and posers, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE stand out as true originals. Their music is a cathartic blend of beauty and brutality, a sonic rollercoaster that will leave you breathless and begging for more. So go ahead, press play on that KSE record and prepare to have your mind blown - just don't say we didn't warn you. KILLSWITCH ENGAGE are here to stay, and resistance is futile.
