Latelly I got curios bout Killswitch Engage so I got "The end of Hearteache" en the World Ablaze DVD.

Gotta say I don't like any other metalcore bands (if KSE can be called metalcore... I just lost track of music tags), but I liked them.

I like the guitar sonud, pretty nasty but defined distortion and melody overall... well... this guys have some pretty wicked riffs on them (not to mention some pretty cool pintch harmonics), and the more melodic passages I dog too.

Other thing that catched my attention was the stage performance, liked a lot their approch to a "metal" band and the energy they transmit live.

Besides the CD and DVD it's all I know of them, so I have no much reference bout their latest work.

Well I wanted to know what you guys think bout them...
Power corrupts. Absolute power is kinda neat.
