Killswitch Engage are currently in the midst of a brief holiday tour with fellow Massachusetts metallers Unearth. They played Lupo’s Heartbreak Hotel venue last night. Fan filmed video of live performances of their new single, ‘Strength of Mind’ and other hits can be viewed below. The band has named Incarnate as their new album, due this March from Roadrunner Records.

In a recent interview frontman Jesse Leach discussed the title and the state of the band:

“The definition of incarnate is ‘in the flesh.’ And this record is who we are right now. Whereas [2013’s] ‘Disarm The Descent’ was sort of my ‘comeback’ album, and was about us feeling out the new vibe. But now, after spending a few years traveling the world together, I think we’re all in a really comfortable place. We definitely have a strong sense of self as to who we are as a band.”

Video: Killswitch Engage – Strength Of Mind


Killswitch Engage 2016

Killswitch Engage has teamed up with The Nerdist to debut their new single ‘Strength of Mind’. You can watch the video at this link or below:

 

‘Strength of Mind’ is available for purchase beginning Friday, December 11th from all all digital retailers and streaming services. The track is the first song from the forthcoming new Killswitch Engage album due out this spring from Roadrunner Records.

Singer Jesse Leach commented on the track:

“We are very pleased to have ‘Strength of the Mind’ finally released. “It is a big moment to have this be the first listen to the album. The video visually captures a bit of the anxiety and chaos that the song touches on lyrically. It is almost a bit surreal and dream-like with the camera effects, called ‘whacking’ It is always a pleasure to work with McFarland and Pecci, as they are both artists who give it their all with no shortcuts. Watching Mike work the camera live, while Ian paces around and directs, is a very involving and creatively satisfying experience.”

“We are all also very excited to have the pleasure of being on the cover of Revolver dressed as a characters from Star Wars! We had a total blast dressing up and trying not to laugh the entire time. It is such a fun cover and represents who we are as people. I am just very grateful to see the beginnings of an album cycle that I feel will define a whole new chapter for us.”
