As a fan of KsE for over 20 years now, I've almost immediately connected their lyrics to Christianity. Read some of the lyrics to songs like "To the Sons of man" (directly taken from Prov 8:4), "This is Absolution", "Breathe Life", "For You" , "Rose of Sharyn" (taken from Song of Solomon 2:1)just to name a few.

Well done Bearded Christian! Being a Christian myself and a big fan of Killswitch, I resonate with your message. I also see the Christian message in Quiet Distress, among many other of their songs. I'll never forget these lyrics: "The victim becomes the victor in the end!" How many of us keep our pain deep within and wonder why we get so angry?

There was always a religious connection! They are from my home state of massachusetts and i grew up listening to them 😊 "The Call" - Killswitch Enage.. one of their most intense religious breakdowns on the disarm the descent album! The albums title itself says it all! The burning question remains.. how much is TOO much to give? Do your wings have the strength to carry on? When we seek redemption, how long will we wait for deliverance? Jesse was always bringing the religious themes into his lyrics and I love it

I had the chance to meet Jesse Leach and Adam D while they were performing a Times of Grace show in Dallas, TX. I've never viewed KsE nor Times of Grace as Christian bands, but I know from meeting these guys that they are believers in the metalcore genre, and Jesse uses his Christian faith and the brokenness he's experienced to write his lyrics.

Awesome, I watched a couple interviews to see if he would mention it but none of the interviewers seemed to notice the themes in the songs - so grateful to hear your experience meeting him. You can see this influence in a number of the songs on this album, I will be releasing a couple more videos on this soon I am sure. Thanks for getting involved mate.

I played "I'm Broken Too" in my car one day while in a Walmart parking lot. My ex-girlfriend pulled up coincidentally, and approached my car. We started talking while this song was playing. Strangely enough, we got back together. Whether or not the song had any influence on that situation, I'm glad regardless.

Bro. You could do show after show about Killswitch Engage lyrics. They have some powerful lyrics. Their lyrics are more powerful and more spiritual than anything Skillet has ever done.

@daviddastan610519 күн бұрын
As a true fan of Killswitch Engage I believe that their lyrics and music rise above religion and actually cause the unification of all religions and all people regardless of any diversity that normally can cause separation from one soul to another simply because of spiritual beliefs.

That leads down a path that has good intentions. . . with a very bad destination. Global religion is coming, and it's Satanic. Not overtly Satanic no... but 2 Corinthians 11:14 “And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.” and Daniel 7:25 “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” Lucifer brings a one world religion using the FALSE light. Beware of that.

Times of Grace has even more of these Faith based elements. Jesse, Howard, and Adam are all believers for sure.

_Most of kSe songs are lyrically positive. "I can't be the only one", "Just let go", "Tribute to the fallen", "all we have", are some of my favs but theres so many more. _from their christian themed side project band Times of Grace some really good lyrically positive songs are "live in love", "hope remains", "worlds apart" & my personal favorite "Willing"

Yes! I was listening to Killswitch Engage in my car. I felt the spirit of God. I thought, "This can't be. They're a dark, Gothic, heavy metal group from the early 2000's." Yet I could hear it resonate in my spirit. They're more than a secular group and God is sending messages through their music.
