Killswitch Engage LIVE-My Last Serenade (Vocal-Howard)

[alia7368]

I had no idea they made this video. Shit, and I was there. Oops!

[PolDee187]

the guy in the crowd after adam executed his babee : "Gimme a piece..." lol

[Stooeybear13]

The pinch harmonic at 0.31 just set off all the dogs barkin in ma street.

[muriendounpocomas]

ahahhahhahahaa give me a piece!!!!!!!!!!!!

[doctorshifty83]

what the hell are you talking about!? Ibanezes are awesome!

[KillswitchS04]

My Last Serenade sounds better in concert than in the studio!

[KdKg2427]

Is that a different bass player anyone ???

[Aquaboy99]

@KdKg2427 lol no :p he's just got different hair in this vid

[LennyAndMike]

the guitar squealing in this is fucking awesome

[5H4d0wW4rr10r]

wow thats a nice band :D

[rossapher24]

this must have been 2003 or 2002 cause tom gomes is playing on drums and i know he didnt leave in 2004

[DanYR1337]

I liked the guitar :(

[ZboyzWillie02]

didnt howard come in in 2002...and the drummer left at 2004? thats what i always thought...

[snapascrew]

@ZboyzWillie02

howard's first show was in 2002. justins first show was in 2003

[islayallies]

@snapascrew

correct on howard and correct on justin, but when exactly did gomes leave in 2003? i saw kse at ozzfest 2003 in raleigh, nc and gomes was in charge of beats.

[islayallies]

when i saw them, it was i think early august of 2003?

[snapascrew]

@islayallies no clue man :(

[moralesm10]

best squeeliez eva!

[vendortrash]

Why is the guitar sooooo loud?

[linkinhearts666]

because its a metal concert and thats what happens. THe music gets played really loud ^_^

[vendortrash]

I mean the F.O.H. tech is a douche who can't set his levels worth a damn. Either that or the sound in this clip is recorded from within the very tubes of the guitarist's amp.

[echo2x8]

the louder the better =D!

[ColmIncendinall]

0:23

Its Matt Heafy in the crowd!

[gabea72]

OMG that does look like himm haha hes like shit they saw me singin lolz

[Direksone]

@ColmIncendinall no fucking way! he looks a fucking lot like him! But I no. This was in 2004, Matt didn't have that amount of long hair. He had short hair during Ember to Inferno and most of Ascendancy. If he did have long hair it could be him;)

[rossapher24]

@ColmIncendinall LOL I wouldnt doubt it, he's a huge fan of killswitch!

[MrRatfinkJR]

did they have justin behind the kit yet?

[doublebassaxisdrummr]

nope, this is tom gomes.

[GoldenMusician]

Really..? I'm pretty certain it's Justin Foley. I mean, Howard Jones came in 2003 - Tom left in 2002.

[ekojmart]

@GoldenMusician nah, tom left in 04. howard came in in 02

[GoldenMusician]

I could be wrong though..

[disturbedmaggot1]

love the band and great sing.but the vocals were a bit lacking in this performance i have to admit.

[pivotshabz]

the entrie show at this venue, every band, killswitch, shadows fall, everyone, they all sounded like shit, its just the compression on the vid

[moser8]

is adam playing an ibanez?

if so thats a fail. i hate ibanez's

[Javadamutt]

joel and adam use to play jem's and JS models until they got their signature guitars from caparison

[RegieGorillaDinosaur]

+1 for you my good man

[PissOnYoFace]

yepp he is lol

[PissOnYoFace]

ESP is the way to go

[DarKHaLOxX]

fedner is terible ibanez is beter that gibson and fender the gutars thats beter than ibanez is enp ltd

[moser8]

hahahahha you obviously dont know shit.

its basically personal opinion.

and i think ibanez sucks.

I play a usa strat and a music man luke.

so fuck you, learn english.

[DarKHaLOxX]

fenders still suck and u suck at guitars so stfu

[PimpyMcHoSmack]

If he is then you like them. You like their music don't you? Faggot.

[RegieGorillaDinosaur]

adam d is my hero

[kildude1190]

lmao, guy at the end "give me a piece" but i agree with kaasflipje, waste of a guitar, but i mean, its his, he can do wut he wants with it

[psykokiller69]

howard sucks sings this one this one is for Jesse

[KyuubiXX243H98]

ITS NOT MATT HEAFY FUCKTARDS

[kenshinjd]

Lol it really is Matt, thought he ddn't like bands that scream

[mylastsaranade]

matt heafy...classic!

[akoalabear1]

Matt Heafy at 0:22!

[snapascrew]

it's not.

[HzMajesty]

just, gay

[forbiddensociety]

The sound at The Palladium can suck depending on your sound guy. I know when our band played the main stage there, it took the sound guy all afternoon of making bands suck to make them sound "okay". This was the year before The End of Heartache came out. I love the "squealy" term haha. "Pinch harmonic". "Pinch". Whatever you want to call it. I also say pinch for short. It's all the same to me.

[forbiddensociety]

This is actually from the 2003 New England Hardcore & Metal Fest. Not HellFest. I have the dvd. I saw KsE in 04 when they toured with Chimaira, In Flames, and As I Lay Dying.  My first metal show ever.

[Kaasflipje2]

What a waste of the guitar. :<

[CalmBefore6]

this sound sucks...the guitar is way too loud nerve racking!!! awesome band awesome song, recording sucks though...sad cause there arent enough versions of this song.

[denrock97]

like the guitars and drums but singing not so much.

[IneedUnderscores]

howard does a brill. job here - this was jesses song though just like rose of sharyn would be howards (in the sense that who the vocalist was for those respective songs) but like i said, if u made me pick one vocalist over the other - i'd be unable to because both sum up KSE to me.

BTW howard DOES do a great job on this track.

[metalmainiak]

i love both singers but i prefur howard but jesse rules to but i my opinion howard is better for killswitch engage but ya my last serenade is jesses song no one can do it like him

[Vertigo9907]

Howard is good but for this song Jessie is MUUCH better

[superchef78]

howard's "growling'' and ''screaming'' have gotten a lot better over the years. so have the guitarists. this is still a good performance but they are so much better on their live dvd or like from on of their shows nowdays. hopefully i will be able to see them live someday.

[cazmaestro]

right at the end a guy shouts "GIVE ME A PIECE!"

lol

[ricerracer719]

just seen these guys with chimaira at hob in myrtle beach...2 words fucking amazing

[R3adybreck]

this must have been around the time (or even before) they brought out end of a heartache look how young they look , .>> gotta be at least 4 years ago

[juniorafrifa]

The tone from the guitars is soo good

[kaytiecorn]

its not called a "squealey" its called a harmonic you fucking idiot

dont try and talk like you know shit when you dont

[nfragala]

jesus- a little harsh don't you think? why don't you gently pull out your tampon before you start commenting because if you want to be a cunt its called a pinch harmonic, or even a vertigo harmonic (to quote Adam D). I say just let the man call it what he wants! KsE Rocks!

[treeunit212]

no no no..

the vertigo squeal is a squealie that is so sick that when you play it you almost lose your balance.

learnyourshit

[juniorafrifa]

Its actually called a Pinch Harmonic

[belchingdonkeyy]

his point was u can call it whatever you want. it makes no difference

i call them pinches for short

[juniorafrifa]

I know, thought I would correct for the fact that he was being a dick for no reason, I too call them pinches, I just thought I would correct him lol

[dawrightstuff]

Ugh, newfag.

[dawrightstuff]

That squealey at like 0:31 is the most brutal fucking squealey I've ever heard.......

........EVER!

[kaytiecorn]

its not called a "squealey" you fucking idiot

its called a harmonic

are you that fucking stupid? dont talk like you know shit when you dont

[dawrightstuff]

Lmfao, who the fuck are you?

Of course I know it's a fucking harmonic

a "PINCH" harmonic too, you forgot to put that word in you fucking idiot

It's also known as a Squealy, so go and suck a fucking tail[pipe.

And no matter what the fuck you say.........

..........That squealey at like 0:31 is the most brutal fucking squealey I've ever heard.......

........EVER!

[Shyuum]

Squealy? well that's new for me lol

I thought it was Squeal, just squeal without the "y"

or squeel

alright man

[RoSeMaN13]

lol adam calls them sqeualys

[Shyuum]

sqeualys? yeah learn to spell lol

[RoSeMaN13]

woah good one.

[xxaperfectcirclexx]

ahah ur a fuckin idiot. it's deffinately called a squealy as well as a pinch harmonic. that's like saying a root 3rd and 5th isnt a power chord, it's the same fucking thing. go read "guitar for dumbies". retard.

[vVcLuTcHVv]

Stop making yourself sound like a bigger dumbass.

[disasterpieces561]

sןɐɔoʌ spɹɐʍoɥ ǝʌoן ı

[Abran666]

dios ke mal suenan las guitarras para ser un directo de killswitch...

[tidcombe]

howard sounds really in this IMO

[N4o4N]

lol, im not making fun of you, it's just the way the sentence looks. He really sounds!

[digiwolff]

lol i read that like huh?

[screwpit52]

i fucking love kse and i think howard is bad ass but this song isnt as good with out jessie but its still sick

[inbluflames]

I was at this show. I chipped my tooth in the pit during this song too haha. Great show as always at the Worcester Palladium. I'm sad I haven't heard any news about a metalfest this year

[pikaXpika]

kse is going on tour before releasing their new album. check out their website

[teenaussie]

sasfot didnt notic ya there so i just repeated wat ya said lol any wayt yer both singers kick ass

[teenaussie]

ok to all you killswitch noobs they had ther demo wich was self titled then recorded alive or just breathing with there singer jesse who im my opition ROCKS he left and kse stubled across howard n he also fumin ROCK he has a great voice so yer all you dooosh bags who dis jessy or any 1 in kse for that matter FUCK YOU

[LOGFAN87]

I dont know why people say that, both of them our good singers!

[Ericosproduction]

Howard is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than the old singer. Howard made "Arms of sorrow" whitch made a Succes (by that time i started to listen to KSE due to that song).

Now... while this new singer is in the game, i've quit

Sry for my bad english :D

[blibbyboo]

new singer?

[snapascrew]

wtf

[FCnewyorkESC]

this band is awesome, i just started to listen to them. i didnt know the singer was black. not to sound patronizing but thats pretty cool

[Sasfoot]

FYI FCnewyork. Howard Jones is their second singer. The original singer was a white guy named Jesse Leach. He was the vocalist on the album version of My Last Serenade. He left the band due to severe throat problems and some personal issues. KSE became known to a wider audience after Howard joined the band. Old school KSE fans know the difference between the two but still know that both Jesse and Howard kick major ass.

[blibbyboo]

your reply to his comment was pointless

[geebergoober929]

jeeeeeesus they are soooo good

adam D and howard FTW!!!

[Tsyoki]

Haha, they look so young, especially Joel :P

[AshesArise86]

0:23 nice to see Matt Heafy havihg a blast at the gig ;)

[kingkongster]

HOLY CRAP WHAT THE HELL

[xDillonDEATHCOREx]

I think I saw corey next to him(:

[a7xrockstar]

wtf hardcore dancing??? 1:50ish

[Flamefly123]

Rofl Phail At The Hardcore Dancing. Killswitch 4 Life Fuckers!

[xOneLastxxxx]

For the record..

Killswitch is absolutly amazing.

and they are EVEN BETTER live. so if you get the chance, and they're playing by you.. GOGOGO!!!

Howard is so talented, along with everyone else in the band. GAWD.

[Foxred29]

lol at 3:50

GIMME A PIECE

[tehsimo]

that guy 0m20s in looks just like matt heafy

[jackasstig]

honestly , black dudes can really sing!LOL

:D

lajon - sevendust

foyle - god forbid

[Kyro850]

Personally I prefered jesse's vocals on this song....i do like howard though....

[ELCONKA]

jesse was good... but howard is one of the better metal singers actually... his voice is way more better than jesse's... with all do respect to the beginings of KsE, but i do prefer howard, even in the old songs...

[Sdave518]

Seriously epople who think that howard and jesse are the same are stupid...howard is a better fit...notice how killswitch now is much much much larger....i support howard adam and the guys and think any critic can lick my scrotum...yes i said scotum...ha

[xOneLastxxxx]

scrotum O.O

[dukviper90]

omg jesse does this songs so much better

[RedRebel6666]

"omg jesse does this songs so much better"

These comments get soooo boring.

[dukviper90]

same goes for u

[RedRebel6666]

Not really T_T

[Sdave518]

your an idiot

[dukviper90]

wtf is your problem. this is just my opinion there both good. jesse is good at his songs and howard is good at his songs. chill out !

[killsX]

thats not at HELLFEST 2004.. is in England-- at Hardcore Metal Festival.

still KsE sounds so brutal..!! like them!!

[gunmetal300]

Caps sound so much better than Ibanez

[razingkaine]

I forgot how much I loved this song. Its pretty unbelievable that shit came out in 2002. Killswitch was WAY ahead of the rest

[AznInvazn69Theory]

overall howard is just as good at screaming as jesse, but howard has more singing talent.

but either way, jesse owns this song ,vocaly..

who agrees with me?

[snapascrew]

people will disagree with u alot man. howard has way more training and over all sounds way better then jesse. people will also disagree with me, but they can go eat'uh'dik

[wbeeeeez]

i fucking do bro he is sick

[snapascrew]

i started listening to KsE in 05 and i first heard my last serenade with howard on vocals (end of heartache bonus disc 2 has live from ToC) so thats why i prefer howard. i wouldnt listen to KsE if Jesse was there singer, i know im gonna get 31231293-0219 thumbs down but i just personally dont like how he sings or screams

[araknid9]

true , jesse sux and people always complain when i say that , !!!!HOWARD ROCKS!!!!omfg!!!!

[neeltennis93]

i don't have a problem with jesse, but Howard kicks ass!

[snapascrew]

back when Howard looked most fit.

[AznInvazn69Theory]

he probably is just as muscular..its just that he grew a beer belly LAWL :D

[tmac3323]

i think howard is a much better screamer, but jesse is a better singer. since this song has more singin i think jesse makes it sound a bit better, but i dont think hed be able to match with howard on some of his own songs

thats just one, 2, ... a ton of peoples opinions xD

[benitahouston89]

u gotta admit tho, jesse sings my last serenede better than howard. its simply jesse's song

[tmac3323]

i agree but they are both awesome xD

[hammerx500]

No matter how hard Howard tries, he will never have a better vocal cover than Jesse for this song.

[MyRainFlake]

That might be true, but i dont think jesse could sing the songs howard have written as good as howard either. Oh well, i don't really care, i like both of them as much as the other. And I think its pretty amusing watching people arguing about how the old days of KsE was so much better. I mean, its still sounds good (at least in my ears), so why not just listen and enjoy the music instead of whining, eh?(not directed at you, just saying) :)

[jonnylad06]

i agree

[LordShowMeTheWay]

That is true. Jesse owns this song. But Howard is a great singer

[whiteboy16754]

agreed they both are amazing! but live I think howard has an edge.

[RedRebel6666]

rofl "GIMMIE A PEACE" :P

[shadowedrocker27]

howard is way better then jesse i think =)

but jesse way good too

[snapascrew]

the last show adam used ibanez at, then he cut it up with an axe ahahahhhh

[Boog250]

I liked they're old singer better.

[rowantrivium15]

yes that is matt heafy. confirmed offically

[RoadRunnerRoadie]

*Matt heafy in a KSE crowd* it's confirmed that is him. hahaha

[jtrs16]

its true it is him lol

[AztiQue]

definitely soulstorm ;)

[soulstorm72]

matt heafy at 0.23?

[Hawtpantz]

Haha true!! He looks like him!!!

[Chaz233]

why would u moshpit for KSE? lol.

[jslaton1]

are you serious? maybe not for this song, but moshing to something like when darkness falls or something would be a blast

[Romantabass]

why wouldn't you?

[gosuke91]

naja^^

[MetalMegaMan]

i like the other live video because they have a squealie battle.

[kevyp12]

best squelie i ever heard at :31 in my whole life

[BalistikTom]

[Hendrix2005]

oh shit the crowd really sucks but the Band still rock thats Killswitch Engage !

[forbiddensociety]

I'm not sure what year this video is from exactly. This is most definitely New England Metal Fest at The Palladium though.

[italianking29]

this video is like wtf. no crowd reaction= wtfs wrong with them

[shadowpal2]

LOL I loved the end - "WOOOOAAAH GIVE ME A PIECE!!!!" LMFAO!

[huder37]

Howard Jones screams when its best!

[morjens111]

It's not hellfest and this isn't in 2004 either... Justin Foley (the new drummer) joined the band in 2003 alrdy and that's their former drummer in the video :D

[shadolink765a1]

[joeweaverispurescum]

this isn't hellfest, btw. it's new englnd metal/hardcore fest.

[scun92]
