Killswitch Engage

"Alone I Stand"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Mar 7, 2016

"I am disconnected from the system," Killswitch Engage singer Jesse Leach howls on "Alone I Stand," the latest preview of the band's forthcoming Incarnate. It's a lone-wolf message, but you can tap into the isolation via a stream of the single.

As you may expect from Killswitch by now, the song collects a series of vicious metalcore licks, skull-bashing beats and furiously passionate vocals. The track hits plenty hard, but the Massachusetts group sweeten things up just slightly for a half-sung chorus about rejecting life as another cog in the machine.

You can stand with band for a bit by giving the new single a stream down below. As for Incarnate, it hits stores March 11 via Roadrunner Records.
