Well the orgasmic, earth rocking, godliness that is Killswitch Engage is back with not only the return of Jesse Leach but a new album! Disarm the Descent was released today April 2nd 2013 and god dam its amazing! My preorder of the album arrived on Sat and I haven't stopped listening to it since. The return of Jesse definitely gave this band new life and they have arose brighter than ever! This album has great powerful messages and heartwarming lyrics that could swoon the ladies within just 30s. Yet at the same time it will get your heart racing and your head banging like no other!
This magnificent album starts off with The Hell In Me. One of the heavier songs in the album it creates a great sense of what is to come. Like all perfect Killswitch Engage songs it has that catchy ass chorus! At first listen you may question who the fuck is doing the clean vocals...but then you realize Jesse Leach has stepped up his game and made his voice sexier than ever! Also he has incorporated a new growl that gives a new edge to the deadly blade of Killswitch Engage.
Next up is Beyond the Flames! It has a sweet guitar melody that is infused with the soft and harsh transitions of Jesse's amazing vocals. This man knows how to make beauty tackle your emotions. One of my favorites off this album.
The New Awakening is a heavy hitting song with less clean vocals but has the most epic ass chant mentality lyrics. Like I said earlier the lyrics are uplifting and motivating to the point that you just wanna live life the way you want and say fuck off to all others!
The 4th song In Due Time proves that Jesse just never wears out. How the fuck can you write so many songs with epic ass choruses? Like shit man its hard to pick a favorite of this album! With the growls, screams, and melodic guitar work I just cant help but get goosebumps when blasting the fuck out of this song.
Now let us give you a Tribute to the Fallen, when I fall...this song will bring me back up! One of the best songs lyrically and the fucking guitar riffs! FUCK! So fucking eargasmic!!! I must hear this song live!
Turning Point follows the formula to the tastiness of the rest of the album. Great chorus, tasty melody and overall greatness.
The 7th song on the album is All We Have and once again the song has Jesse's majestic voice lifting you to a level of happiness while the sweet sound of Adam Dutkiewicz and Joel Stroetzel's guitars guide you on a journey to nirvana. Yeah I may be exaggerating it too much...but I fucking love this album.
You Don't Bleed for Me...Killswitch Engage you don't make, you don't make a bad song! A great mixture of heaviness and clean vocals entwined to make one of the best songs off the album. Chorus is catchy...that's a given. The whispering plain speech stuff Jesse does in the song backed by the cool metal jazz sound. Just cool. Even the end of the song justifies what will happen after listening to it, you will keep repeating the song in your head until it finally fades away... until of course you listen to it again.
Next would be The Call. Fast paced guitar riffs and some nice tasty growls. All while Justin Foley is pounding away on our ears using the essence of drums. Oh did I mention a epic catchy chorus? Also love that atmospheric guitar work during the soft portions of the song. I will answer the call!
No End in Sight...Lets just say I have listened to this song over 200 times since it was leaked several months ago. Some of my favorite lyrics off the album, and id say this song represents the entire album well. This song just gets me so pumped! Its like a towering wave of pure sex? Yeah pretty much! There is no end to Killswitch Engage...In sight.
The most beautiful song off the album is Always. If you thought My Last Serenade was Jesse's last serenade, well you're wrong! This song is very soft and is almost along the lines of a balled. If you were to sing this song to your significant other, they will probably be on top of you all night long. In fact, I will be playing this song at my wedding...its that good. "I am with you always, from life until death takes me". See metal can be coote!
The final song featured on the album is Time Will Not Remain. Very very enjoyable guitar work and Jesse has yet to disappoint. The song isn't anything phenomenal, but it may be one of my most favorites of all my favorites off this album. It brings you back to where the album began and gives you one last eargasm before you simply listen to the album 10 more times in a row.
Buy this album right meow! Thank you Killswitch Engage for giving my ears such a grand gift of excellence that could be compared to well...heaven?
