My Last Serenade is a fountain of youth

If you guys did not know…. Jesse Leach is the original singer and current vocalist, white dude with a mowhawk ish hair Howard Jones is the brother in this song, who took over for Jesse after their first album and carried them for YEARS & successful Then Howard left and Jesse came back and I think Howard suffers from Diabetes and mental health and Jesse left for mental health issues too at the start of their career THE SIGNAL FIRE, is a song from their last album that features Howard Jones and Jesse Leach singing… YOU SHOULD DO THAT Come on Kyle more KILLSWITCH!! Eric don’t be fooled, they are heavy

Howard is currently the lead singer for Light the Torch now, so anything from them might be nice to see as well.

When I first watched The Signal Fire my jaw hit the floor when I saw the back of Howard's head

​@@yourpalCarlyI had the same reaction to seeing Howard come back for that song. It was a dream come true for all KSE fans.

Also Howard Jones is in a new band, not sure if they’re still around but I believe they were called “light the torch” Heard them some years back and I’m like “wtf that sounds like Howard” and sure enough it was lol

I'm always sad to see the radio edit used for the reactions. It's so unfortunate they used it in the official video. That being said, welcome to KsE Eric!! One on my favorite bands, no matter who's on vocals. I first heard Jesse on their album, then my first live show had Howard on vocals. Enjoyed everything Howard did, but was very excited when Jesse returned.

Agreed. The concert versions are always the better option where KSE is concerned.

Technically it's the Resident Evil version that could be played on the radio.

The original hits SO much different. I saw them live like 20 years ago and it was such an amazing show.

Yep. It saddens me that almost every reaction to this song is to the weakest of all the versions.

I hate that Roadrunner records did that for a lot of their artists. Skipknot and KSE the two most prominent. The MTV version and the album version.

The live version of this song is incredible. Love seeing you all get into Killswitch

MORE KILLSWITCH!!!!! My curse, rose of Sharon, any of daylight dies!!! Oh please just ALL OF THOSE SONGS!!! 🎉🤘🎸

Rose of Sharyn is the song I use to intro new listeners to Killswitch. Such a banger. A very powerful song for me in some formative years of my life as I lost my mother very early. That would be my vote for the next one.

Broo.. you have good taste in music

Signal Fire. You can hear both Howard and Jesse

This is one of the songs that brings me back to me teenage years. Helped me through a lot of crap this band ❤

Should check out "Rose of Sharyn" about Howard's mom (iirc). Growls that make you cry!

God, this song is timeless! I remember hearing this song when I was a teen and it just HIT different👏

You guys should've reacted to this song live, its SO good!

If you guys want an absolute thrasher, The Signal Fire by killswitch engage is an incredible song that they used to basically pass the torch from Howard Jones back to the original vocalist Jesse Leach and the duo they do is really something special.

This is the radio edit. Listin to the original version.

The live version of this song is phenomenal.

One of the best bands live hands down, with both Howard and Jessie they are incredible. Also Adam the main guitarist and writer dances around the stage and does a lot of the screaming haha

This Fire is a straight banger. Really shows what he can do vocally. Love your videos.

Definitely need more Killswitch Engage. React to ALL of it!!!

Every concert I’ve been to for Killswitch is at the top of my list. Soooooooo nostalgic! Thanks for this reaction

I have never heard of this band but thank you for introducing them. I love the sound as well. I am definitely going to start listening to more of their music.

Please react to more of their stuff! Would love to see My Curse, This Fire Burns or The Signal Fire, but you can't do wrong with any other of their songs. Killswitch always delivers.

Love Killswitch Engage! Howard Jones's voice is one of my favorites, hands down. I would love to see y'all's reaction to My Curse

what i wish could happen more with metal vids like this is to spotlight the drummers more. cuz ofc we’ll want to know what the singer is saying and all of the other people in the bands, but still.

You need to do the LIVE VERSION ! :O one of the most amasing live performence i never saw

One of my favorite bands. And this song is Grammy nominated

I LOVE KSE! what a great way to start the day! please do more of them!!

Hahaha this one was awesome to see Eric react to! Just finished Euclid (we saw you crying Kyle... we all did it's okay). You guys keep it up - love the channel!

I’d just seen them here in Alaska at the state fair. It was such a good show, everyone has so much fun

definitely do my curse. I credit that song as being one one of the things that got me into listening to metal. Its just iconic and still one of my favorite metalcore songs to date.

Brings me back to my high school days. One of my favorite songs and bands at the time. Great reaction 👍🏻🔥 Do Holy Diver for sure. Such an awesome cover!

Rose of Sharyn, My Last Serenade.....And definitely prioritise the version of A Bid Farewell from their live DVD. Shockingly good recording/performance!

Howard, is just the voice of metal🥰 Pray for his health please🙏

KILLSWITCH ENGAGE - HOLY DIVER next, please😁

You guys need to do Signal Fire next. Both Howard and Jesse are on it

You guys would love the live version of this song with Howard as vocalist. You definitely get a better appreciation for his voice and range. (^~^) 💕🦋

I remember first hearing this song at the end of Resident Evil Apocalypse when it first came out. Been a fan since. Still use this song as my ringtone, no shame. Definitely do My Curse next.

I'd definitely love to see more Killswitch! Arms of Sorrow, Rose of Sharyn and My Last Serenade are classic bangers by them, as others have said, but I would also highly recommend some of their newer stuff such as Signal Fire, In Due Time and Always!

My Last Serenade is my fav Killswitch song, but all of the ones everyone’s mentioning are also great. Much love, fellas!

Oh the memories coming back such a good song hell ya what ever album this is has some of their best songs

My curse is my all-time favorite song from them.

you guys HAVE to do the live version of this.

awww man I saw these live when this came out and you are calling it OLD SCHOOL?! that means i'm old school too! i'm OLDDDDDDDDDDDD

MORE KILLSWITCH! Truly, anything is great.

Should do the live show version of this song. My Curse should be the next song it's a pantheon song for metalcore genre.

I recently discovered this song because Roderick Strong of AEW uses this as his theme song

Signal fire PLEEEEASE. I got goosebumps when Howard came out.

I suggest doing the live versions from killswitch, the raw talent is shown so much more.

There’s a live version of this that needs to be seen

One of my favorite songs ever

Hell yeah!!!! Love me some Killswitch Engage, you gotta do more of them for sure. Eric, you've only scratched the surface of what Howard Jones is capable of doing with his voice, great reaction as always fellas, CHEERS!!!

You boys need the album version to truly appreciate this song.

This album came out the year I graduated! So good! Taking me way back 🤘🏻Great one ☺️

Love it! Nice to see you guys branch out from the same 6-7 bands you normally cover. And that's not a dig BTW, I get you cover what you like. Love be the energy and happiness y'all show in your reactions

Incredible live Howard Jones is an unbelievable force!

Also one to watch is Signal Fire. Its both Howard Jones and their old/current singer Jesse Leech. Its amazing

Oh hell yeah! How did I miss this reaction? I loved Killswitch Engage growing up 🔥

Gotta react to their live concert they did. Its dvd quality so you'll know when you see it. Flawless show

When Darkness Falls is one of their best! Worth a listen!

Ooo yes !!! One of my fav tracks of all time 🤩

There was a DVD release at that time called ,Set the world ablaze. It had a live show and one of the best behind the scenes doco thing of the band through the first couple of albums. It's quite the ride, I recommend you check it out.

A band i've been wait for you guys to dive into.

I really like Starting over, Holy Diver and Reckoning, Howard's voice is amazing.

Killswitch Fixation on the Darkness is SICK. Great song to check out. Also Rose of Sharyn, Last Serenade, When Darkness Falls, Arms of Sorrow, A Bid Farewell, Take This Oath, Self Revolution, he'll honestly there first 3 major albums are great.

Oh man, Killswitch always has a spot in my playlist. I was excited to see you guys posted this, Howard is such an incredible singer. I am leaning towards Holy Diver but only if Eric knows Dio's version already. If not I would go with The Arms of Sorrow or My Last Serenade.

Absolutely need more KSE reactions! Holy Diver is a MUST!

I love this song and I love KSE and have for like 20 years now.

Hell yeah! Killswitch takes me back to high school, you should definitely check out more of them 😁

Y'all should definitely check out the live version of this one.

Howard Jones has such an iconic voice that you hear it you cant be like hmmmm wonder who that is. The vocal ranges and control are ridiculous. And Kyle you were spot on the guitar work is always spot on, massive tone , cordal structure, riffs for days, great reaction as always.

The Single Fire. Has both vocalist, and is a great song.

If you guys need more Howard, you should check out his band Light the Torch! -The Safety of Disbelief -Calm Before the Storm -Let Me Fall Apart -Death of Me

Oh! the live version of the End of Heartache

The passion in Howards voice is just incredible! KSE is phenomenal! And especially the Howard Jones era 🤘🤘

The original of "Holy Diver", then the cover!!

Rose of Sharyn! Brutal musically and beautiful lyrically

One of my favorites is "the signal fire" with both Howard and Jesse

In due time is really good. Even with a different front man. All the instrumentals are what makes this band awesome brings me right back to my high school days.

Howard Jones was just featured the song “aura” by ONI. Never heard of the band before. BUT I LOVE THE SONG. Give it a listen!!! And everything and everything KSE

This is one of my all time favorite songs! Check out Of mice and men - fighting gravity The Devil wears Prada - broken The Devil wears Prada - cancer Y’all will love these

Fun little note. An AEW wrestler (a rival company for wwe that started about 4 years ago) named rodrick strong comes out to this song as his entrance song

Great reaction. Their live performance of Element of One is a great one to check out

this one is a "radio friendly" version. the "original" one, with the screaming/singing blend, is as good as the one you guys react to

The Signal Fire is peak Killswitch, but probably a bit of a departure from the Howard era. Holy Diver and Rose of Sharyn are just *chefs kiss*, My Curse is awesome, Arms of Sorrow is like End of Heartache 2. Those are largely Howard era, and Jesse era 1 - My Last Serenade is early 2000 metalcore distilled into a perfect 3 minutes. Fixation on the Darkness is a banger, Life to Lifeless is catchy as anything but the first Jesse era has very clean vocals and catchy hooks, but more brutal. I love both in all honesty.

I wish I could like this video a thousand times. Yes, more killswitch!

one of my favorites

Would love to see Holy Diver (cover) or My Curse (featured on Guitar Hero 3 I believe)! Love this song and the reaction was great as well! Also, Eric has the Doctor Doolittle theory!

Howard currently sings for his own project Light the Torch and Jared Dines' project SION, def recommend to check both bands out

I would highly suggest My Curse, or their cover of Holy Diver. Both amazing songs. ALSO Howards side project- band is Sion, song is The Blade.

Glad to see y'all finally do some Killswitch Engage. Would really like to see y'all react to Numbered Days, or My Last Serenade.

More! Please!

One of my favorite bands. I would live to see reactions to more KSE.

Holy diver and the arms of sorrow are awesome. I also love rose of Sharyn and Always is amazing😭

Loved this. I'd love to see you guys react to The Signal Fire, from their latest release, it has both Jesse Leach (the first and current lead singer) and Howard Jones in. You'll love it. Love what you guys do! 👊🏻🤘🏻

Light the torch!!

Guys should absolutely do the live version of this!! Its a whole different level than this one

The first song I ever heard by them was The Bleeding, which has a different lead singer. Definitely fell in love with the band from that song. The lead singer that was in the song you just reacted to is also amazing. Holy Diver is a very fun track to listen to, especially the video they did for it. I would like to recommend the video for Always. It's heartbreaking, and beautiful entirely.

This is my favorite song from this singers era. But never heard this version

I forgot just how hard this song slaps. This fire burns is my favorite by them but awesome job guys!

You should show Eric Howard doin' his thang in Sion with the track The Blade. Total banger!

I love killswitch engage! Brings me back to my teens lol
