@@snapascrew I feel like he would feel way to awkward to do it. He's extremely self-deprecating and always looks uncomfortable when people praise his production or guitar playing lol.
Been listening to them for 15 of their 20 years . First saw them live in 2005 . One of my favorite bands . The guitar work is so satisfying live with the pitch harmonics
Also one of the tightest live bands there is. Also they just about literally created metalcore. Sure, Overcast was around before them, but they were definitely the first well known metalcore vand
44:31-45:50 I was so honored to even ask them a question yes that’s me btw I was nervous as hell but these guys were great about answering it Edit: I should’ve replied to his comment saying I started out as a drummer but switched to guitar cause it got to be too complicated to set up every night 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The interviewer is very respectful to them and doesn't talk down on heavy metal. I would guess they weren't the only guests that day and a lot of people in the audience probably didn't know who Killswitch Engage was. So the interviewer did a good service to them by talking them up to the audience.
Absolutely love Killswitch. Love their music and the message it sends. Very uplifting and hope they know it is helping in people’s recovery all over the place! I also love their Holy Diver remake and that is how I found KSW.
F***ing awesome, they played my 2 favourite songs: "My Curse" (twice!) and "This Fire Burns", the first songs of theirs I ever heard! I love this video
Same here man, I remember when I first heard "My Curse", that part of the song was the first in any song to make me cry cause his voice is so beautiful. When I was watching this video for the first time I was thinking "Come on Adam, please sing"
@@azarothshadowsoul I hope you checked out the new Times Of Grace release, “The Burden of Disbelief”, it came out 6 days ago. Features Adam’s vocals tons of times.
Ive always wondered why Adam plays more of the leads when Joel actually has better tone. Adam would be the first to say that too but maybe they just play what riffs they write I know periphery isnt like that at all. They dont care who wrote it, they have whoever plays it best play it
I know he's trying his best and, if I was in his shoes, I would probably also be squealing like a fanboy, but the interviewer comes across as such a sycophant.
In my opinion, Joel has more skill on the guitar and his style is a bit easier on the eye, but I like to watch Adam play just as much. Or to put it another way, I think Joel could beat Adam in a guitar contest, but calling Adam untalented would be stupid
They just pulled the session of these songs from the original album files. A guy I worked with was sent my curse sans vocals when they were "auditioning " singers before Jesse finally agreed to come in. Have it somewhere on an ipod.
2 things.. A.) Why is Joel so quiet?? and B.) what is this massive obsession with Adam being a better player and better at pinch harms? Can we stop pretending and give Joel his fucking due please. Christ alive.
It's probably a peavey 5150 or a laney iommi profile. Was sidesatge at kse/pkwy drive, Adam's kemper profile just said fuck yourself. Guitar tech laughed at me trying to read it.

every-time Adam hits a pinch harmonic instantly puts a smile on my face.
his face too haha
Vertigo Squeal my friend! This is it! Haha. :D
‘My Curse’ was the first Killswitch song I heard. Needless to say, I was hooked!
Same for me. I heard it in Guitar Hero 3 for the first time
Jason Stallworth me too. And since then they’ve become my favorite band.
I think it might have been mine as well.
My Last Serenade was first for me.
Noob!
Man I wish Adam would do a production masterclass. I would pay for that in a heartbeat!!!
I’m all in on that!!
His masterclass would just be:
Interviewer: what are your top tricks?
Adam: Nope.
Ya he’d make a ton off it because we’d all buy but he really can’t be bothered.

Ever since Set This World Ablaze, I always call pinch harmonics; squealys
49:42
@@MooseAtYou beautiful
Hahaha yup they been called Squeals for decades.
Most of us have been calling them squeals since Zakk Wylde
I call em squidlies.
I love the right/left separation between their guitars.
i can hardly hear Joel
@@bretthill7443 In This Fire you can hear both very clearly.

Adam won a car on the Price is Right. Greatest episode ever!
This made my soul happy.
Killswitch deserves way more credit & respect.
When i saw this , it inspired me doing a killswitch cover. Love them , i hope they never stop playing music.
One of the best guitar duos ever. Love Killswitch!!
52:50 Great job Adam and Joel. 👏
The 2 coolest guys in metal!
Love these guys. So much more melodic than most metal bands
F***ing awesome, they played my 2 favourite songs: "My Curse" (twice!) and "This Fire Burns", the first songs of theirs I ever heard! I love this video
This Fire
This Fire is one of the Songs that got me really into Metal. The Riff, The Melody and of course Howards Godlike Vocals
For those who are curious, Adam's last name is pronounce "Smith"
R/whoosh
Hahahaha
*pronounced
@Andrew Stack 😂😂😂
3:51 Imagine Adam did his vocals there. Hearing those vocals put a smile on my face.

@@heelgill Adam does a lot more vocals now. He did vocals for the first ToG album and the new one and some of Killswitchs new music.
THE NEW SONG/VIDEO IS BOMB ASS! THANKS GUYS!
from another broken dude
I appreciate professionals who dedicate themselves to their craft.
Known for having a cape and sideburns.
Hasn’t had sideburns or a cape In like a decade :(
Wore a cape in milwaulkee this year
K0nradical there’s still hope
the guy doing the interviewing is really good
“That wrestler guy CM Punk” haha
The "bonus" tracks on the deluxe version of Daylight Days are absolute fire. Better than half the album, and it's my favourite KsE album.
Joel “I’m trying to think of that song cause I haven’t heard it in a while”
Adam “I don’t even know what you’re talking about”
I wonder if their signature maxon od pedals will ever be released
i was gona make an important presentation for work, then i saw this.
Great interviewer, a rare and welcome thing! Nice job.
Ahhhhh killswitch with good vocals
29:10 I love this interviewer. When he laughs I laugh too lol. Not every interviewer is like that and he can relate cause he’s a guitarist himself.
For This Fire, you could hear how clear Adam's back vocals are.
That's cool they panned the guitars, get to hear their different techniques.
If you look close they have the Steve Vai signature module Synergy amps that wasn't out yet
I see Adam D, i press like. That simple 😂
i bet its driving adam nuts to have to sit still and play haha
josh mountain its probably more comfortable. He has back problems
And he wears a knee brace now . Old men now lol especially mike D since he’s the oldest at 46
I bet they are great guitars… especially with those price tags 😱
"We were listening to a lot of European metal" proceeds to only name Swedish band, most from Gothenburg, haha.
There he goes with "Obsequious" again, it's his favourite word!
I love this video, thanks for sharing this
49:42 Adam: “let’s do squeal-y’s!!” 😅😅
I didn't know I needed to watch this today. :)
Amazing and can't wait to see you guys live in Glasgow.

Thank You!
More of this pls..with other bands..metal bands
Yes!!
This is soooo awesome!
53:10 “That’s not true, that’s actually not true” Adam 😂
Love Adams personality
I understand now why they use light gauge for drop C. Those harmonics are just insane!
Such a wholesome video
Gotta love these guys
Pretty sure that's Nick Bowcott from the band Grim Reaper interviewing
Pretty damn good? More like exceptional guitar songwriting....master class
Inflames and Soilworks, great Swedish bands! Check then out.
Don't forget Raunchy. Incredible band
Also Dark Tranquillity
We need a cover of This Fire Burns with Jesse at vocals! 🤘🏻
How is it a cover if they wrote the song?
They opened with that song on this years tour. Jesse nailed it
I’m meaning since Howard did a version on an album, I’d love to hear a Jesse version on an album
@@TheROB0TGuy absolutley
First time adam d playing n sit properly bfore that he is a most badass guitaris on stage..
22:12 He meant “Hope Is...”
Claims to be a big Killswitch fan, proceeds to ask about the song "all hope is not lost" 👍
“All hope is not lost”
What song is that???
i think he meant "Hope is"
Jake oh true hahaha
There are better guitar players in terms of skill BUT Adam's riffs keep me alive...! :P
Aritra Chatterjee his Riffs are so fun to play! I’m scared the new stuff is uninspired compared to the old KSE tho.
@@yakuzaohtani3631 TBH I am not expecting it to be another End of Heartache but they usually deliver their trademark sound every time.
@@aritrachatterjee7006 The songs that hey have released off the new album have been very boring so far. Hope the rest of the album is better
Riffs > lagato scales
There are Chinese children playing Vai covers note for note, but they sound like robots....you can't teach feel
Q&A begins with TONY STARK 39:23
LMAO
Pretty sure adam helped parkway drive produce some albums
I think he mean't Hope Is
I’d love to know which Passive they were talking about
Dan Vezina Bare Knuckle Nailbombs if I’m not mistaken. That’s what BKP said they used in the past.
Uberschall JP they’ve used plenty of passive pickups....
Ive always wondered why Adam plays more of the leads when Joel actually has better tone. Adam would be the first to say that too but maybe they just play what riffs they write
I know periphery isnt like that at all. They dont care who wrote it, they have whoever plays it best play it
so dope!
I love the pinch squealing ❤
loved being there!
I know he's trying his best and, if I was in his shoes, I would probably also be squealing like a fanboy, but the interviewer comes across as such a sycophant.
"well said"
Who is Mike Hurst?
I CAN’T BELIEVE I NEVER SAW THIS!
Did they even mic up Joel's cabinet? I can't hear him for shite.
Really cool!
What was the death metal band that Adam said he liked??
The Aborted
Also Adam has a side band with George Corpsegrinder Fisher called Serpentine Dominion.
Love how Adam D mocks the interviewer's laugh at 21:43😂
Howard should just drop his side bands and rejoin KSE. They all would sound phenomenal together
Edward what about jesse?
henri crousteau what about him? He would still be in KSE. I was talking about forming a duet with the singers
@@edward6749 well you got The Signal Fire track that features both of them.
So who is better Adam or Joel
In my opinion, Joel has more skill on the guitar and his style is a bit easier on the eye, but I like to watch Adam play just as much. Or to put it another way, I think Joel could beat Adam in a guitar contest, but calling Adam untalented would be stupid
What deathmetal band? The boarded or deborted
Music Time Space aborted
Curious myself
The audio sucks. Waayyy too low.
What no moshpit? Lol 🤘😉🎸
I was there :)
Me.too
Kaskets Spray Art same here my question was actually in this video it starts at 44:31
Interesting that they're using Howard's vocal track
What does this even mean? Of course it’s ‘Howard’s vocal track’ as it’s the original song 😂
They just pulled the session of these songs from the original album files. A guy I worked with was sent my curse sans vocals when they were "auditioning " singers before Jesse finally agreed to come in. Have it somewhere on an ipod.
Jesse and Howard are both singing on the first song.
JustJoshLTRB who’s the guy? A buddy of mine went to audition in NY
@@metalmouth13 no that is Howard and Adam.
Dudes having a good time on last play through of curse, laugh every time adam squeals lol
Do...Do you work out?
2 things.. A.) Why is Joel so quiet?? and B.) what is this massive obsession with Adam being a better player and better at pinch harms? Can we stop pretending and give Joel his fucking due please. Christ alive.
These are the ones you’re going to have to deal with 😂😂😂
why are they playing alone like that?
It’s a guitar clinic not a concert.
What's hilarious is Adam D won the price is right once lol!
The most wholesome moment ever, I remember it, he just couldn't believe be won.
Joel could be a lot louder lol, even with the guitars panned left and right adam is still much louder
RIP Eddie Van Halen. 14:19
My hearing is bad. is there gona be another Serpentine Dominion album?
Joel's starting to look like TimTheTatman
Joel's amp is so low.
Does anybody know if they (KSE) sell their Kemper Profiles? Thanks.
It's probably a peavey 5150 or a laney iommi profile. Was sidesatge at kse/pkwy drive, Adam's kemper profile just said fuck yourself. Guitar tech laughed at me trying to read it.
@@bradhargis2261 Adam sometimes plays an engl profile, Joel was most recently playing a KSR (aka Rhodes) profile.
now i know why he shorts his name to Adam D
I would be solo moshing.
The interviewer looks a little similar to alister crowley
Hope is...
Nkt all hope is not lost lol
