    Right,

    What's everyones thoughts on Killswitch Engage? I think they are good but I'm getting very sick of their albums. Each new one to me sounds exactly the same as the last. They really need to change things around a bit. The formula works, yes but it's getting very dull!

    I just listen to Alive or Just Breathing and thats good enough for me :P. Way prefer Jesse Leach to Howard Jones aswell. I do agree that the newer stuff seems a bit repititive.

    Pretty indifferent to them really. I don't hate them, I might listen to the odd song, but overall, meh.

    I used really like them. Last album I enjoyed was "The End Of Heartache". I prefer Howard to Jesse.

    Howard has an immense voice. I didn't really like their last two offerings that much but they've definitely got some good songs, mostly the older stuff.

    I gotta say though they seem to have so much fun just being a band, so they get marks for that!

    As Eddie Stratton of One Minute Silence told me, "safe" metal is probably the only way to make huge money in the metal music industry. Bands who don't play it safe get a lot less for their efforts.

    Also, from when I saw KSE live, I thought they should change their name to "Adam the Childish Dingbat and Band" ;)

    I really like them but I am gradually getting bored.

    I think they would have a brilliant greatest hits album but everything else is starting to blend together.

    I personally much prefer Howard.

    His lyrics suck though and he has no stage presence. Awesome singer though

    I really like Are We Alive, or Just Breathing?? but anything after that bar maybe a few songs on each album is boring,they need to change things up a bit I think.
