Howard Jones was my favorite metal singer period. His highs, his lows and clean was perfect. Not too much, not too little, a perfect blend. I will miss him in KSE. Thank you Howard for bringing the heavy.
My kinda gospel. I have all the Killswitch Engage albums with Howard Jone's vocals. Face melted. "Anchor yourself to the foundation of everything you love Believe you have just become to live Don't let the world deceive you Don't let their words betray you Don't let their lies deceive you Lead them to their graves We will not die this way (this is absolution) Death claims us no more (no more) Do not grieve, end the suffering We will live, live eternal"
+Shevonte Simmons his voice was a replacement....not putting him down, love kse with howard, but jesse is the original vocals that got me hooked, wish howard had a better gig now hes better, devil you know is ok
I prefer Jesse tbh. The original KSE is what got me into the band, and honestly, the show was incredible live. Jesse really knows how to get the melodies right. He definitely does Howard's vocals justice.
One of my favorite performances ever was these guys sidelining the DIsturbed "Music as a Weapon 4" tour. Saw them in Minneapolis after a day of acts (Suicide Silence, Bury Your Dead, etc) all on the First Avenue street. Oliver Peck was giving tattoos, vendors set up. It was glorious. The only time I got to see Howard with KsE. Next time I saw them he backed out of the band and Phil from All That Remains had to fill in. I miss the mid 2000s as well.
I never thought music could take me out of my depression. KsE did that for me, especially this song. I live by the lyric Howard says: "Let them do their worst" Thank you, Howard Jones and the rest of the guys in Killswitch. You guys saved my life. Wish you the best Howard.
Howard Jones. You are a great inspiration of mine. Thank you for everything you did for KsE. Thank you for everything you did for me. And thousands of others. I love you Howard Jones. I wish you the best of luck in the future
@@jackbrown4697 Seriously, you don't know Adam D? 7 months later and you still haven't figured it out? He's the lead guitarist who does the lows and he sings the chorus. There's a reason they show him singing. Lol! Not sure if trolling. . .
Just one of the amazing tracks that Howard gave us. Thank you, Howard. We miss you, and wish you luck in the future. Hopefully we'll see you back soon!
I remember a few years after Howard joined the band on the back of Jesse leaving, Everybody was crying for Jesse to come back and saying, "fans of Howard aren't true KSE fans." The front man is important, but he isn't the beginning and end all of a band and both Howard and Jesse are good.
It is awkward without him,But we have to be fair,the new guy is giving all he has just to Give us good quality music,yes howard left really big shoes to fill but the band is far from being done guys...Howard has his own music project and everyone is hapy,so lets be happy Too! Rock on guys!
The first step to life is death, and through Jesus Christ, you will LIVE, you will be FREE, you will be NEW? Anyone up for this? Receive Jesus Christ today, by faith, he heals all hearts.
If the whole world could listen to this song at the same time and feel the meaning of it and it's energy surge through their souls , the world would be a better place.
"do not grieve, end the suffering, we will live, live eternal..." well he retired and there's not much we can do but cement the greatness he wrought in our minds. Don't dwell on what was, but remember everything that howard's talents and voice meant to you. I hope he finds his absolution in life!
such a great group of guys...can't be duplicated. they evoked so much emotion out of us. as of the jesse vs howard debate....they both brought their own flavor to the group. just enjoy what they did for you and the band. can't wait for what's in store down the road for KSE
well at least its Jesse doing the vocals. i loved KSE's old songs with Jesse's singing and i will really miss Howard, he helped sing my pain away when i hurt the most. Thank you deeply Mr. Jones. Now for just 1 track i wanna hear both of them singing. that would be EPIC!
wow the lord of the rings size moshpit at 0:17!!! The best shows are those when the bands themselves have joy on stage Killswitch FOREVER!!!! Hail from Holland \m/ \m/
KSE will never be the same without Howard.His vocal prowess is unmatched and in my opinion,this one happens to be one of their best songs ever.Thanks to Howard for entertaining us with his screams and amazing high notes vocals.
A prototype of black MC who can scream fucking powerful, a completely mad guitarist, a red-beard epic drummer, another one guitar (seems a very normal person) and a bass that looks like a member of Gorogoroth (a classic metalhead). THIS BAND FUCKING ROCKS!
I personally like Jesse. The man started KSE and has been a very close friend of the band. His vocals have improved immensely. Just check out the band him and Adam D started: Times of Grace. Pretty awesome stuff! Having said that I will miss Howard and wish him the best of luck. Welcome back Jesse!
Cmon guys...The band didn't die with the loss Of Howard..its his legacy we are talking about here...Ive felt really bad about Howard's health issues that made him quit but life goes on...and who knows if we will see him on stage again?
+Devon Randall just not the same though, KSE is where Howard belonged, with Howard's unique and powerful voice and the band's instrumentations, purely a match made in heaven, it sucks terribly that he had to leave them. His band members in DYK don't pack the same punch. I like Jesse but Howard was too amazing

Believe you have just become to live
Don't let the world deceive you
Don't let their words betray you
Don't let their lies deceive you
Lead them to their graves
We will not die this way (this is absolution)
Death claims us no more (no more)
Do not grieve, end the suffering
We will live, live eternal"
Love Jesse but Howard will always be my favorite
No voice like Howards
To me too.
To me too.
Tomaž Ravljen except Howard's.
Ive always said this. Howard will be missed
Adam D has such a great voice. Imagine if he took over full time vocals after Jesse left
Makes me so sad to think i will never get to experience these guys live. :(
You will,just not with Howard.
+Eliseo Hernandez I just saw them Nov 10 on their tour with Letlive and Rise Against! glorious show!!!!
+Shevonte Simmons his voice was a replacement....not putting him down, love kse with howard, but jesse is the original vocals that got me hooked, wish howard had a better gig now hes better, devil you know is ok
+Shea Simmons (Shea Magnet) EXACTLY! I don't like the new vibes that much.
I prefer Jesse tbh. The original KSE is what got me into the band, and honestly, the show was incredible live. Jesse really knows how to get the melodies right. He definitely does Howard's vocals justice.
This is one of the best songs to showcase how well Howards voice went with this band. Especially the melodic portions. Simply brilliant to the ears.
Good times, can't believe this album is almost 10 years old.
When he says This Is Absolution, it takes me back to My Last Serenade
This era was SO good. :/ I miss it
One of my favorite performances ever was these guys sidelining the DIsturbed "Music as a Weapon 4" tour.

R.I.P early 2000s
Howard was an amazing match. Fortunate enough to have seen them live.
Same
I think it's coming back.
I never thought music could take me out of my depression.
KsE did that for me, especially this song. I live by the lyric Howard says: "Let them do their worst"
Thank you, Howard Jones and the rest of the guys in Killswitch. You guys saved my life. Wish you the best Howard.
Lo que transmite esta canción, dan ganas de llorar, es única 🖤
Wow!!! Todos contra todos Salvese quien pueda...!!! Esta interpretación es otra de mis preferidas que viene del álbum "As Daylight Dies"
As a underrated band they have alot of fans.

Amazing song , I can't wait to hear new music from Howard in his new band

Les Bisch devil you know

KsE has been the driving musical force in my life. I'll never stop listening to them.
Howard, i miss you. =/

Armando P ¡La ví! Qué suerte xD
death claims us no more just a beautiful tune
WALL OF DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've only ever got to witness one wall of death. It wasn't as big or as intense as that one, but it was still pretty cool.
thomaschavers
haha me too, it was a smaller one at an escape the fate concert that I was part of, but so fun!
I got to witness the Lamb of God Wall of death wasn't a big one though, becuse it wasn't the biggest venue. But cool non the less.
i used to listen to these guys all the time then i stopped, i'm happy i started listening to them again.
howard iS a bad ass. I bet he would put up a hell of a fight
Guy's a fucking tank
I miss howard. kse was howard. shame mental issues sad
Their growls and screams make me tremble. lol. SO GOOD!
Dont let the world deceive you, trust the King of Kings , God is Jesus Christ, Mesage of God in this song, this is real absolution, God Bless us!
Man I wish I was born sooner :( and I could witness their Live concerts back when Howard's voice would give me chills over and over again !
But let's be honest Adam is the mvp
He is the fucking backbone of kill switch
I think everyone could agree with that sir
M.Gstats no
Can never get tired of listening/watching this song/video.
KSE Died Without Howard Jone
Nooo!
Truth
Yup
It is awkward without him,But we have to be fair,the new guy is giving all he has just to Give us good quality music,yes howard left really big shoes to fill but the band is far from being done guys...Howard has his own music project and everyone is hapy,so lets be happy Too!
Rock on guys!
Pedro Mota Please tell me you realise this "new guy" is there original singer....

If the whole world could listen to this song at the same time and feel the meaning of it and it's energy surge through their souls , the world would be a better place.
"do not grieve, end the suffering, we will live, live eternal..."
well he retired and there's not much we can do but cement the greatness he wrought in our minds. Don't dwell on what was, but remember everything that howard's talents and voice meant to you. I hope he finds his absolution in life!
adam d the best guitartist to come out is quite a long while!!!!! just simply amazing awe inspiring rifferey!!!....
I like Howard a lot too. But I just saw them play in Boulder, CO and Jesse was really good. I like them both.
Poetry in music,dreaming with eyes open...!
hell yea the wall of death was insane, killswitch has energy in their music
whit only the firsts thirty seconds.. u know what happen in the show... AMAZING!!
such a great group of guys...can't be duplicated. they evoked so much emotion out of us. as of the jesse vs howard debate....they both brought their own flavor to the group. just enjoy what they did for you and the band. can't wait for what's in store down the road for KSE

can't get enough of this amazing song
Thanks Howard. I loved your vocal style.
Just watching this vid gives me goose bumps
honestly, when you grow so attached to a band and their music and one of the members leave, it sucks so much. Howard was one of a kind.
this song is so uplifting and powerful. This Is, ABSOLUTION!
I remember mosh pits listening to KSE, SO GOOD STILL!!
seeing them in AC! HoB out here is going to explode with killswitch awesomeness!
wow the lord of the rings size moshpit at 0:17!!! The best shows are those when the bands themselves have joy on stage Killswitch FOREVER!!!! Hail from Holland \m/ \m/

EPIC INTRO!!
i love u killswitch ... i love u so much that i m crying when i hear ur nme from my frds.. or any one else in this world.. plz come to india ...

A prototype of black MC who can scream fucking powerful, a completely mad guitarist, a red-beard epic drummer, another one guitar (seems a very normal person) and a bass that looks like a member of Gorogoroth (a classic metalhead). THIS BAND FUCKING ROCKS!
Two of the most under rated guitar players are in this band!!! Their riffs are fucking crazy!
Wow the verse is just beatiful!
we can be so damn happy that this guy sings metal!!!!!
the best, love this so much
I personally like Jesse. The man started KSE and has been a very close friend of the band. His vocals have improved immensely. Just check out the band him and Adam D started: Times of Grace. Pretty awesome stuff! Having said that I will miss Howard and wish him the best of luck. Welcome back Jesse!
My fav , may god protect those ppl 4ever
