One of the first metalcore albums ever. This album really kicked off the genre it should be a staple in any metalcore fans collection.

[@mattbrattensborg7785]

Also Suicide notes and butterfly wings by Atreyu was released in 2002 as well

[@howiefelthersnatch3862]

I'm going to have to say Darkest Hour and Shadows Fall really kicked off metal core because technically they were some of the first!! Besides Hatebreed but I never really got into them

[@RebelGaming4U]

@@howiefelthersnatch3862 hatebreed was more hardcore not metalcore. Killswitch Engage and Shadows Fall are around the same time since Adam D produced music for shadows fall and All That Remains and even As I Lay Dying. Killswitch Engage was more widely known in my opinion. I remember hearing the first 2 killswitch engage albums and I bought Alive or Just Breathing. When Guitar hero 3 came out and I unlocked the Killswitch Engage bonus song "My Curse" I absolutely fell in love with Killswitch. Loved both Jesse and Howard. Ive been to a few of their concerts and even have tickets to see them with Light The Torch and August Burns Red. Too bad covid came in. I guess you could say though that Shadows Fall falls in line with Killswitch Engage, As I Lay Dying as some og the founding members of metalcore but you have to admit Killswitch Engage has took it to another level....im glad they arent really mainstream as far as I know but they definitely deserve more credit and bigger fame.

[@leeschofield488]

@@howiefelthersnatch3862 Shadows Fall are a lot more thrash.

[@RISKStudioProduction]

The air that I breathe by all that remains is my definition of metalcore

[@DenyThisFlesh]

That whole album is 🔥🔥🔥. Still my favorite metalcore album.

[@edwardhunter5310]

The whole Alive or Just Breathing Album is one of the best in metalcore. I always come back to the record and it doesn't bore me 😀

[@greekazoid_8325]

One of the best of all time, and will always hold a special place in my heart! 🤘❤

[@theapocalypsebarbie]

THIS was my gateway to the extreme metal that I am listening to now. Also one of my longest standing love affairs!

[@claya1532]

The entire album is a masterpiece. I can go back and listen to it now and it slaps just as hard musically and lyrically.

[@SageNemesis]

Numbered Days and The Element Of One are probably my favorite tracks on this record, which is all great. You should check them out.

[@donnyparker1717]

yet... another song that changed my life many years ago. Alive or Just Breathing is one of the top 10 greatest albums of all-time.

[@williamridenour3478]

Touching to see, Jesse, wipe the tears from his eyes at the end of this video, and witnessing the passion and emotion he put into this song

[@outofthedark18_gaming]

Killswitch engage are one of my favorite bands ever. I even got the skull and wings tattoo from the end of heartache album they have got me through alot of dark times and they are even better live both jesse and howard are great.♡

[@metalc0readd1ct]

Hell yeah,my fav metalcore song ever 🔥🔥

[@bigoneninesewell]

You should check out Times of Grace!.. a side project band Jesse and Adam D did!! 🤘🤘

[@btoneymusic]

I was about to comment this as well!

[@WrambleOn]

They've been working on a new album.

[@rkuntz]

So good. Hymn of a Broken Man!

[@GamingSaurusRexYTube]

their only album is arguably one of the best metalcore albums of all time, its fucking amazing

[@paulie98vr6]

@@WrambleOn hadn’t heard that, I’m glad to hear it though!

[@bassimprovjams3772]

My favorite KSE song ever, that chorus hits me hard AF still after all these years

[@davidriddick82]

DUDE MORE KILLSWITCH!! LIFE TO LIFELESS or FIXATION ON THE DARKNESS More from the Jesse Leach era... If you want more current do The Signal Fire (Jesse and Howard)

[@TEXAS_SKOLDIER]

Think he already did Signal Fire?

[@davidriddick82]

I thought he did too, but I couldn’t remember

[@MagsinEH]

Take This Oath from Heartache is probably my favorite Killswitch song because it had Jesse and Howard on it :)

[@Whenisko]

Watch Their DVD record "Set This World Ablaze", sick shit

[@dajerk7082]

Amy song off alive or just breathing is great.

[@CAlberto08]

Big facts.

[@dixiewrecked1059]

The Element of One track off that album was so under rated

[@ryanenglish3744]

Have you heard The Signal Fire yet? If you haven't stop everything and check it out! It's off their most recent album, so it's with Jesse, but they also brought Howard in for a guest spot. The two of them together, melts my mind.

[@TrueDuckFan]

I went back and listened to this album probably about a year ago and it’s absolutely one of my favorites now. The riffs, the pace, the change ups. 💪💪

[@paulie98vr6]

You should check these out from the same album. “Rise Inside” “Fixation on the Darkness” “Life to Lifeless”

[@51-73-i6w]

Rise inside is goat

[@hinduhindustani2072]

I was listening to this song at the Dome night club when I lived in London 16 years ago .....still listening now .

[@hgbugalou]

The song that original got me into KSE back in the very early 00s.

[@brianMcGranahan0311]

We used to play this song each time we went on patrol back in 2005-06 in Iraq.

[@viciousoz4188]

Wish people would recommend more underrated Killswitch Engage songs 😐 It’s always the same 5 songs

[@jontompkins1995]

Same, I know so many good killswitch songs that no one reacts too

[@RebelGaming4U]

I want to hear them react to Rise Inside. That's one of the most underrated killswitch songs.

[@alxrms891]

This is Absolution is my favorite.

[@jontompkins1995]

A bid farewell is good, so is breath life and when darkness falls

[@Pliskin2894]

I felt this way with Arms of Sorrow. Wish people would react to this one more.

[@Duck_Boi556]

Woe is me- & Delinquents. Great metalcore band

[@TeslaNick2]

Jessie's performance on this album is dripping with conviction and emotion. My Last Serenade is the best song ever written.

[@goodini026]

It's been years since I've watched the video and I only now realized that Jesse was wiping tears from his eyes at the end of the song 🥺

[@RyAnxiety1]

First song I every heard by them back when it was a new song, was hooked immediately.

[@stevenmcmahon5748]

Alive or just breathing, insane album. Probably first metal album i loved

[@martymcpeak4748]

I love that Killswitch took their name from an episode of the X Files

[@corokingi]

The riffs on this track are solid 🤘

[@andrewstack9980]

The kings of metalcore.

[@RainyJohnson]

Love this band! This was my first album of theirs and I have never looked back. I love both Jesse and Howard and kinda wish they could both front KSE. My faves are pretty much all songs from Alive or Just Breathing, but an underrated one that I really love is Rise Inside, also Element of One. Other faves are My Curse, End of Heartache, Starting Over, Save Me, Holy Diver, All In Due Time, Rose of Sharyn, Always, The Hell in Me, the list goes on to be honest. But most recently The Signal Fire! Anyway, they're an awesome band! Thanks for reacting to this one. Rxxx

[@DarKcurrenT22]

Yo if you like this you have to react to it dies today - severed ties yield severed heads!! Do it bro! Great reaction by the way

[@CaliDBan]

The birth of Metalcore. It was wild at the time, growing up with hardcore, and it diverging into Post-Hardcore and Metalcore, it was fun times. Now I feel old. This was the jam though, nice reaction.

[@peterkefalas1483]

the riff definitely makes us all want to headbutt the computer

[@chriskeiser5809]

Also, this was the last album Adam played drums on. He went to lead guitar full time on The End of Heartache

[@patking389]

You need to check out killswitch engage this fire, the signal fire, unleashed, cut me loose, strength of the mind, rose of sharyn

[@aliskilletman]

And don't forget the great one itself END OF HEARTACHE

[@kyleengle3862]

This whole album is fire!

[@joh3628]

Before My Curse there was The Element of One. You should definitely check that one out.

[@bradleymontgomery5775]

Fixation on the darkness next!! Jesse leach version. They re did it with Howard as well. But the whole Alive or Just Breathing album is just stupid good

[@akshitpadhu4741]

You should check out Oceans Ate Alaska- Escapist . It's right up your alley!

[@ericedwards6019]

Check out In Due Time and Rose of Sharyn 🤘 if you haven't already

[@JammaOG]

rise inside best \m/

[@agchee]

Think most would agree that Howard is a more talent singer. But I love Jesse's lyrics & emotion. If you're staying with the old, I'd go with "Self Revolution" "Fixation on the Darkness" & "Just Barely Breathing." If you want to jump to newer Jesse, I'd go with "The New Awakening" "Strength of the Mind" & "The Crownless King."

[@chriskeiser5809]

Alive or Just Breathing was the first metalcore album I ever got. Still rips from top to bottom

Cool song, but IMHO Howard > Jesse. YMMV since this is MY opinion.

I also reaaaaaaally like Howard.
