Jesse sure gave it 110%. Shame things didn't work out for him, but it seems he has found what he wants in life and everybody's happy. His mark on KSE still remains.
OG killswitch was something to be reckoned with, Jesse puts everything he has into this performance, my last serenade is my favorite song from them debatably off of my favorite album of alltime
Can't we just thank these guys for actual making the music? Seriously, we shouldn't keep going on with this debate. They both make great music, and that's how it should remain, end of.
Even with Jesse being my favorite metal vocalist of all time it's like who cares man just enjoy the music. And I don't feel so strongly about it where I'm like say that one is so much better than the other they both have their strengths.
They were definitely more energetic back then. Proper going for it. I'm not saying they're not energetic now, just it looks like back then it was all or nothing, whereas these days it seems like they've settled...
Howard is like a gimmick. Jesse is the real deal. I could almost laugh at Howard during his perfomances, especially the Holy Diver video. Jesse could probably make me cry, and cut things.
Jesse says: Political methods to misguide us- half truth revealed in time- open your eyes to see that we can stand unified! Howard says: And my heart still beats your name! What is more critical or political? I respect your opinion, but Jesse is more critical and idealism.
Radient if Howard posessed jesse's screaming technique he wouldnt be doing the music he is today because Jesse screams wrong. He even said on the KSE Set This world ablaze dvd that Howard was a better Screamer and singer than he was.
Jesse Leach, bad ass vocalist. True Howard also is a good vocalist, but Jesse is the true sound of Killswitch Engage. Not hating on Howard at all, I still love Killswitch Engage to this day, but I'd have to say that if I could pick one it would hands down be Jesse.
Joel and Mike look sooo young, and Adam looks waaayyy different without short shorts and with that spiky hair haha. Jesse was a great vocalist for killswitch. I was really sad he left, but happy that they got howard. Killswitch will never be the same though
2 years later after your comment, Jesse returned to the band. It’s amazing how after Jesse left, they brought Howard into the band, then once Howard leaves, Jesse returns to the band.
k, they have more mainstream success with howard, but when when u listen to a band a lot u'll figure out where the true genious lies, and thats with jesse. he believes in wot hes saying a lot more. and if u read both of their lyrics its easy to see why, jesses lyrics are spiritual and inspirational, howard moans about having a broken heart, and thats another reason they do better commercially with howard, coz of all d brokenhearted teenybopper emos singing along with him!
word! but, the guitar stuff is still more than potent. even though kse now sounds like shite. how will never be jesse, and jesse kicked some major arse. aojb is a legendary album. fuck, how good it is. damn, i remember hearing for teh first time. fuck! genius, fucken geniuses!
i dunno i personally like jesses screaming better. honestly its not a question of who is better its who you like better. my preference is jesse because i like how he sings and screams better than the way howard does. i dunno it just seems more rough and emotional to me. but thats just my opinion. and not to say that i dont like howard too
@focusizhere dude, I agree with everything. A couple years back I entered the world of metal, but before that I was a crappy nerd that listened to everything that appeared on WWE. After that, I found out about KSE, with Howard Jones and I loved it. But now, after seeing too much of Jesse, I came to loathe the current KSE and just wish to see Jesse in any band. Btw, im currently 17.
omg there is so much power, energy, and passion here compared to howard, i mean shit howard lovers compare 0:09 -- 0:33 to howard -- howard gets blown away, when i hear howard im like "another kse song here we go" in my head with jesse im like trembling with anticipation at the start and im like "jesus fucking christ im so ready for this, lets go"
I personally think Jesse sounds better because he sings with more emotion, but he no technique whatsoever- Thats why he blew out his voice and left the band.
lol i'm sad jesse left, he owned!, i dont really like the new guy i mean hes alrite.... but jess just had the soul that really brought the band to life!
Alive of Just Breathing was one of those albums you put on and are excited by the first time. Mean riffs, with drums to match(you can tell that drums and guitar were played by the same person), positive and relevant vocals. For a while it looked like KsE were gonna be one of the coolest bands ever BUT he left... End of Heartache just put a bad buzz of Emo on the whole thing. Seemless is a cool band mind you.
well, i think kse wouldnt be what it is now without howard. I mean, there are like 13 in dozen of singers like jesse. he was.. how to say it, nothing special. i understand you were/are huge fan of old kse and jesse. but metal world thanks the god that howard and kse found eachother.
The way I see it is, Howard is good vocalist, however, I feel his lyrics aren't as good, or come off as sincere as Jesse's. There is something about Jesse that is very honest. When I tried to listen to Daylight Dies I couldn't even get through most of the album because I couldn't get past that what they're singing about doesn't seem honest anymore. To me, this will always be KSE's defining point in their career.
alive or just breathing will go down in history as a classic album
one of the best metal albums ever , classic instant
Today, it’s considered one of the greatest metal(core) albums of the 00’s.
This is still my favorite song of theirs!
Shit was so fuckin heavy
That drummer is so fast I can't even see him!
Tom Gomes
Vocals: Jesse Leach
Guitar: Adam Dutkiewicz
Guitar: Joel Stroezel
Bass: Mike D'antonio
Drums: Invisible Man
Drums : Tom gomes
Came here to say that lol
Where’s the drummer?? 😂
Based on the previous comment I guess it wasn’t Justin?
Jesse sure gave it 110%. Shame things didn't work out for him, but it seems he has found what he wants in life and everybody's happy. His mark on KSE still remains.
OG killswitch was something to be reckoned with, Jesse puts everything he has into this performance, my last serenade is my favorite song from them debatably off of my favorite album of alltime
Best moment of the best metalcore band
Love the emotion Jesse puts into his performance, bloody awesome to watch and hear.
fuckin jesse looks insane and his vocals are beast as fuck, wish i could see KSE with him perform alive or just breathing all the way through
I miss Jesse!!!! please comeback to KsE...!!
You got your wish although it's been 12 years since he has returned.
Ahhhh the glory days!
"chanting inspiration for the righteous dislocation from the..... social order"
awesome. .....aaaa
Can't we just thank these guys for actual making the music? Seriously, we shouldn't keep going on with this debate. They both make great music, and that's how it should remain, end of.

@@TheVoiceofKizzy yep
greate clip!
adam looks so funnie performing but he plays the whole song so smoothly =P-
energy on stage!!!!
Jesse gave himself a concussion from headbanging and i never could visualize how he accomplished that. Now i see
so. much. enthusiasm!!!
epic. brazil fan
That was epic. Jesse Leach is a god.
FALLLLLLLLLLLLLL
This song + album owns! Permanent in cd player..
Still a staple in my disc changer almost two decades
Jesse's a good tard.
Howard is good , but jesse is stil my favourite=)
This footage is fucking priceless
Adam D with the strat!!!! 🤘
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
Was there any doubt what this band was going to do for the metal world? KSWE🤘
2:33 - 2:55 sounds like In Flames, sounsd a bit like Reflect the Storm, even though this song was probably released first
The stage presence is FUCKING INSAAANE!
fuck man i need a singer like him or that chick from arch enemy :P
...yesss
agree with u completely!!
BADASS PERFORMANCE..
best song
jessie was a motherfuckin killer on the screams
hell fukin yea!!!!!
jesse is the man, him and howard are both equally matched. but in my opinion, jesse is just a little better, but dont get me wrong howard is the man
yup
this is why jesse is the SHIT!!!
Seconded
Jesse > Howard
have u not seen World Ablaze!?!?!
energy all over the place...
especially in End of Heartache check it out
超かっこいいʕ⁎̯͡⁎ʔ༄
They were definitely more energetic back then. Proper going for it. I'm not saying they're not energetic now, just it looks like back then it was all or nothing, whereas these days it seems like they've settled...
This was 17 years ago now! Crazy 🤣
Yes i totally agree. The real KSE was be with Jesse...
nice
Howard is like a gimmick. Jesse is the real deal. I could almost laugh at Howard during his perfomances, especially the Holy Diver video. Jesse could probably make me cry, and cut things.
Jesse says: Political methods to misguide us- half truth revealed in time- open your eyes to see that we can stand unified!
Howard says: And my heart still beats your name!
What is more critical or political?
I respect your opinion, but Jesse is more critical and idealism.
Radient if Howard posessed jesse's screaming technique he wouldnt be doing the music he is today because Jesse screams wrong. He even said on the KSE Set This world ablaze dvd that Howard was a better Screamer and singer than he was.
seemless barely plays anymore and are about to call it quits..jesse's main band now is call empire shall fall,check em out on myspace
its quite hard to see him but there are 2 drum kits one behind them and one to the left look behind the guitarist.
i luv jessy. no homo. he does so many wierd movements
@fadedsun303 you are correct but thats why in there new self named album there songs have meaning and you can truely understand wat there messages are
ya man, i agree, definately, that is their masterpiece without a doubt. n jesse is the largest difference causing that
Jessie ruled way more than Howard!
What? Howard gets blown away in the whole song!
Jesse Leach, bad ass vocalist. True Howard also is a good vocalist, but Jesse is the true sound of Killswitch Engage. Not hating on Howard at all, I still love Killswitch Engage to this day, but I'd have to say that if I could pick one it would hands down be Jesse.
i think its someone whos just into the band havin a good time...
Joel and Mike look sooo young, and Adam looks waaayyy different without short shorts and with that spiky hair haha. Jesse was a great vocalist for killswitch. I was really sad he left, but happy that they got howard. Killswitch will never be the same though
2 years later after your comment, Jesse returned to the band. It’s amazing how after Jesse left, they brought Howard into the band, then once Howard leaves, Jesse returns to the band.
What is Jesse up to these days anyway? Does he have an band? Is he still in the heavy metal scene?
I meant jesse's a god
off to stage right...near Joel and Mike.
2022
lol adam is a freacking maniac ^^
still consist with 5 members untill now.
Howard is a really good singer but Jesse rules for ever. Hes the real killswitcher!
Good call dude.
Kse with Jessie were heavy as shit!
Howard replaced their old singer dude, this guy kicked ass but had family issues so Howard took his place.
aye it was, but yeah theres abit of resemblence :P
great track:D:D
Do they have another drum set off camera?
k, they have more mainstream success with howard, but when when u listen to a band a lot u'll figure out where the true genious lies, and thats with jesse. he believes in wot hes saying a lot more. and if u read both of their lyrics its easy to see why, jesses lyrics are spiritual and inspirational, howard moans about having a broken heart, and thats another reason they do better commercially with howard, coz of all d brokenhearted teenybopper emos singing along with him!
who's the guitarist with blonde hair?? is that adam?? he moves kinda creepy while he plays, but still pretty awesome \m/
ayo where was the drummer?
KsE = win
word! but, the guitar stuff is still more than potent. even though kse now sounds like shite.
how will never be jesse, and jesse kicked some major arse. aojb is a legendary album. fuck, how good it is. damn, i remember hearing for teh first time. fuck! genius, fucken geniuses!
i dunno i personally like jesses screaming better. honestly its not a question of who is better its who you like better. my preference is jesse because i like how he sings and screams better than the way howard does. i dunno it just seems more rough and emotional to me. but thats just my opinion. and not to say that i dont like howard too

@fadedsun303 Jesse is a very religious guy, that's why all his lyrics come straight from his heath...
omg there is so much power, energy, and passion here compared to howard, i mean shit howard lovers compare 0:09 -- 0:33 to howard -- howard gets blown away, when i hear howard im like "another kse song here we go" in my head with jesse im like trembling with anticipation at the start and im like "jesus fucking christ im so ready for this, lets go"
MindsAblaze shut your damn mouth
I personally think Jesse sounds better because he sings with more emotion, but he no technique whatsoever- Thats why he blew out his voice and left the band.
@m4ssee Yeah because I said that image is more important than music didn't I...
wasnt adam using a duncan invader in his bridge back then?
lol i'm sad jesse left, he owned!, i dont really like the new guy i mean hes alrite.... but jess just had the soul that really brought the band to life!
I bet you're happy hes back now. :)
howard would not be able to pull this song off the way jesse can...although it would be interesting to hear howards version.
Alive of Just Breathing was one of those albums you put on and are excited by the first time. Mean riffs, with drums to match(you can tell that drums and guitar were played by the same person), positive and relevant vocals. For a while it looked like KsE were gonna be one of the coolest bands ever BUT he left... End of Heartache just put a bad buzz of Emo on the whole thing.
Seemless is a cool band mind you.
lol hes there, u can sorta see his sticks at 3:20. lol
jesse and howard are both great. I like jesse better, but i think overall howard wins because he can pull of everything he does in a studio live.
To bad the band is overly commercialized these days. 2002 was real kse.
Lol Joel and Adam look hilarious here. Still badass though.
howard is sure really good .. but jesse had somethin special
jesse's voice made kse for me, without him they just suk tbh, the empire shall fall ftw..........voices forming weapons is fukin something
Im afraid jcupsmells is right..that new KsE eventually will be just singing =(
Make sense please :)
Nonetheless i like this song xD
there is nothing more metal than bleach blonde hair adam d lol
Is Adam the blonde guitarist? Lol
well, i think kse wouldnt be what it is now without howard. I mean, there are like 13 in dozen of singers like jesse. he was.. how to say it, nothing special. i understand you were/are huge fan of old kse and jesse. but metal world thanks the god that howard and kse found eachother.
@fadedsun303 listen to starting over i think thats prettyhonest the reckoning come on
I dont know why, but for some reason i am scarred of adam in this video...
The way I see it is, Howard is good vocalist, however, I feel his lyrics aren't as good, or come off as sincere as Jesse's. There is something about Jesse that is very honest.

I should correct myself. I thought Jesse was the real deal, until Seemless. Barf.
weres drummer?!
