Special Features

 

  • Fourth album from US metalcore troupe lays claim to being one of the finest metal albums of 2006. This follow-up to 2004's 'The End Of Heartache' - which introduced new vocalist Howard Jones - sees him dispel any remaining doubts over his inclusion. The band's synthesis of pulverizing brutality, catchy melody and unabashedly epic, impassioned songwriting is staggeringly powerful, and captured to perfection in a killer production job from guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz.

After the seminal End of Heartache, Killswitch Engage established themselves as one of the biggest metal bands on the planet. As such, big things were expected of their next work, to which they have only partially delivered.

The main problem with Daylight is that there is nothing here that you won't find on their three previous albums. Every song follows the exact same pattern; fast riff, shouted verse, sung chorus with overdubbed shouting. It's certainly not a bad album by any means but neither is it an incredibly good one in the same vein as Alive or Heartache were. Whilst it does work in places - Arms of Sorrow and Through the Eye of the Storm being the best tracks - the overriding impression is something that was rushed or even like a B Sides collection. As such, it is hard to recommend outright unless you've bought their previous albums. If you haven't, get Alive or Just Breathing, then The End of Heartache, then this.

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars good

kse got to serious on the end of heartache and it was boring . this is all about stupid riffs and funny beatdowns which is what make kse good. If you liked alive or just breathing you will like this
