KillswitchEngage

We doubt any of you watched the MTV Video Music Awards last night (unless you're girlfriend made you watch, in which case, dump that broad), because we sure as hell didn't. Given there isn't even a metal or hard rock video category, why would we...

At this point, let's just face it: Killswitch Engage are huge. Need proof? This summer, on the Rockstar Mayhem Fest, the dudes had freaking pyro. Pyro, for crying out loud! And with a new album in stores and a whole lot of touring planned for the rest of this year, Killswitch are on something of a roll...

Former Killswitch Engage vocalist Jesse Leach -- you know, the guy who sang on 'Alive or Just Breathing,' the 2002 album that is now considered a neo-classic, and then shockingly hit the eject button just as the band was rocketing into the metal stratosphere -- is somewhat back on the scene with a few new projects...

Killswitch Engage drummer Justin Foley reports unfortunate unsportsmanlike behavior from XBox Live gold members when they played 'Madden NFL 09' against them. A little intimidation from the virtual playing field never hurt anyone -- even your favorite band -- and would've only added to the fun...

One of the most popular features in music editorial is 'the list.' However, year-end, best-of lists are often the most anticipated and most argued elements of music journalism. Everyone looks forward to compiling their top 10 records of the year as much as they look forward to checking out and discussing the lists of others...

"Finally, Long Island ... here we come!" Killswitch Engage bassist Mike D'Antonio exclaims. Call it one hell of an end-of-summer bash: Killswitch Engage will play two special shows this weekend. First, on Saturday, Aug. 29, the boys will roll into Long Island to headline the Bay Stage at the Jones Beach Amphitheatre...

The Rockstar Energy Mayhem Fest differs vastly from Ozzfest, the decade-old, quintessential metal summer that it supplanted last year. On Mayhem, the bands don't perform until 2 PM -- as opposed to 10 AM -- so the 2-on-the-dot roar of Tennessee's Whitechapel was a perfect way to start the day...

It's 2 PM on a sweltering Friday in Camden, N.J., but on Bus #19 the members of Massachusetts metallers All That Remains are as cool as cucumbers. The air conditioning on their 2002 bus, which its driver has christened 'The Legend 2,' is on full blast, fogging the insides of the bus windows with condensation...

Friday is here. And for us, that means an entire day spent in the sunshine, rocking out at the Camden, N.J. stop of the Rockstar Mayhem tour. We can't wait to see Black Dahlia Murder, All That Remains, Job For a Cowboy and Behemoth. It's always fun to catch Marilyn Manson, Slayer and Killswitch Engage, too...

No day off is really a day off on the Mayhem Fest. Killswitch Engage, Job For A Cowboy and Whitechapel are playing venues together on their day off and last night, the bands shook the rafters of Central Jersey's Starland Ballroom, located in Sayerville, N...
