Most bands re-record parts on live albums/dvds to get it to sound perfect. That's what it sounds like they did here. I've seen Killswitch live many times and they sounded freaking amazing, near flawless, but it wasn't like this haha

I always watch live videos of KSE cause of Howard's voice. That shit is angelical.

I know it's been mentioned before, but I can't get over how hilarious it is to watch Adam mute Justin's cymbals. I know Justin is fully capable of muting his own cymbals, so you know there had to have been a discussion at some point between Adam and Justin like: [Adam]- "You know what would be cool?" [Justin]- "What?" [Adam]- If I muted your cymbals for you at 1:14 and 2:34." [Justin]- "Sure, fuck it." LOL.

Killswitch Engage is the greatest metalcore band to ever exist. Period. They are superstars in a genre flooded with lame to mediocre bands. One of the only in their genre that can hold a candle to the all time greats of both hardcore and heavy metal music.

Howard, greatest vocalist in KSE. Adam with his antics on stage is a showman and can make people laugh, cry, throw fists up in the air and who can't do push-ups during the song is rare! This jam takes me back when I was 18 and how I would love to be in that crowd. It's crazy and so amazing!

1:15 loved the way he helped his drummer fellow mate..

Cracks me up when Adam walks over to Howard towards the end around 3:35 and makes him laugh and break character/ singing 😂😂😂

Here a link to a good quality performance (same concert as the video we are commenting on) kzread.info/dash/bejne/c5WnlLegf9KbfsY.html The original (studio version) was of course sung by Jesse Leach tho, I think the studio version with jesse leach is just as good as the performance with Howard on vocals. But in general they have many songs like these because Killswitch Engage is that kind of band, you just have to dig deeper.
