Jesse handles these tracks well, but I feel like the tracks from Howard's era were written for Howard's voice. He just had that booming quality to his melodics.
Team Howard for life.....His range was amazing. Jesse sounded amazing on this even last year 2018. Joel Stroetzel has a decent range too judging by the backing! Lot of talent in this band.
They both kickass as Lead Vocalist. There seems more an underground, raw, and prevalent versatile scream in Jesse, for the Rhythm and lower melodies seems Howard shines. Conclusion...they are different singers as any singer usually is from another in some way..but both still make Killswitch sound kickass vocally!
Whats with all the hate? Jesse sounds pretty good here. His cleans may not be as powerful as Howard's, but he's still doing a good job. I've always preferred Jesse's screams over Howard's, too.
It's a very very rare case that someone can sing any song better than original vocalist. Jesse can't also sing this song better than Howard and if you'll ask Howard to sing 'In Due Time' then Howard will also not be able to sing it better than Jesse.
Jesse is a monster. Howard was a monster. KSE has had two amazing vocalists. I love how Jesse sings these songs in his own style, not trying to emulate Howard but just singing them how he sings them. As a fan since Alive or Just Breathing and adoring Jesse's vocal style, its amazing he's back. Numbered Days and My Last Serende just hit how they should.
I honestly don't get the hate. Yeah, Jesse is not Howard, but it doesn't suck either; no major offkey notes, good movement onstage, emotional delivery, no fuckups in lyrics, etc. It's an ok performance. He even nailed the extended "broken heart" note near the end, which I thought he wouldn't. People need to relax and stop treating this as some kind of Blaze Bayley vs Bruce Dickinson shit.
There is no reason why Jesse and Howard couldn't of joined forces and give us fans the best of both. There is always room for two singers in a metal band that sings and screams. And when they sing they're solo songs, it gives the other singer a few mins to rest his throat. Works for everyone.
I think Disarm the Descent and Alive or Just Breathing both captured the essence of mixing hardcore and metal, so I have to disagree. And as another commenter mentioned, Howard had very limited lyrical content, that kind of got whiny when 2009 hit.
The problem is not that Jesse isnt a good vocalist, cause he is fucking awsome. The problem is in compairing a voice like Howard's, wich cames from another world with the voice of "just" awsome singer like Jesse. The second one will allways seems not good enough. But that is not excuse for that much hate on Jesse, im sure he puts enough pressure on himself trying to be near Howard's level to keep everyone happy. Just enjoy guys, quit on hating without no real reason, is not bad, its just different and still fucking great.
After watching the same song from the DVD with Howard then to this it seems like the band itself was more happy if you will. Like hopping around or interacting with the fans more
I respectfully disagree. I have seen Killswitch atleast 2 or 3 times with Jesse fronting and Adam is still his silly self and Jesse brings great energy to the crowd. My dad liked Howard too but he said Jesse does great live. Plus you got to remember that DVD was back in what 2005? That was 16 years ago. Age has caught up to them but they still perform very amazingly.
That's Jesse. The original KSE vocalist. Howard Jones has a new band called light the torch. Check em out, I'm sure you'll recognize him as the 2nd KSE vocalist. Jesse rejoined after howard became ill. 🤘
No and no Howard jones all the way don’t care who’s original or not Howard Jones and this song gives me chills. I hear more passion from the fans singing in this song.
I felt exactly the same as you @Chris when Howard was the singer. I really wanted to like him, but I hated KSE with him as the vocalist. Jesse was far superior, and it just never sounded the same when Howard came in. So glad Jesse is back.
Que carajo es esto youtube voy a ver el video de killswish y ustedes ponen una anuncio de la mierda 💩 música de anuel AA Rap 👎🏽. Esto es metal 🤟 no un canal de música basura 🗑 Mas respeto a nuestra música legendaria 🤟🤟🤟🤟😎
Jesse is awesome making growls but his clean vocals are weak. Technically Howard wrote this song so it belongs to him and he should sing it with the new band
Howard for cleans
Jesse for screams
simple
mad? Howard scream better than jesse xD
mad? Exactly. Jesse can scream but Howard’s cleans are badass
Howard for both
JustJoshingYT it is happened
You just got it
I would pay mad money to see Killswitch Engage with Howard and Jesse singing together onstage.
Jesse and Howard have totally different vocals. I must give Jesse credit for trying really hard to capture Howard's voice
I was worried but he really did a great job. It has to be rough to come back to your band after someone with such talent took them to the moon.
@@DeSoulHCR I also thought he did really good, loved his dirty vocals on this one especially
But together it's🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤❤️😇😇
Either its Jesse or Howard
KSE has the best live performance of all metalcore band and this song rocks!
Jesse really does Howard's songs justice. Glad they are all friends and Howard did a new song with them.

Howard was amazing but I love how raw Jesse is.
Jesse IS the voice of killswitch engage
@@jenniferwalz2232 seu cu
@THE TRACKCAR That would be Adam and Joel for innovating the metalcore sound.
God damn I love this song such a fun song to play
1:51 So is no one gonna say how good Joel's background singing is????
I was thinking the same. Lol
They both kickass as Lead Vocalist. There seems more an underground, raw, and prevalent versatile scream in Jesse, for the Rhythm and lower melodies seems Howard shines. Conclusion...they are different singers as any singer usually is from another in some way..but both still make Killswitch sound kickass vocally!
It’s cool to hear Joel sing!

cool cover
This song is performed by Killswitch Engage, therefore it is not a cover.
😂
@@derekrequiem4359 DUHHHHHhhuHhUhhh ReALly???
Good joke lmao
ah, yes, a cover with all original members present
people shit all over Jesse, but their first album was a giant success, as was As Daylight Dies, Howard or Jesse they are both great for the band.
It's a very very rare case that someone can sing any song better than original vocalist.
Jesse can't also sing this song better than Howard and if you'll ask Howard to sing 'In Due Time' then Howard will also not be able to sing it better than Jesse.
Every live performance I see for any band nowadays the crowd looks so dead.
Jesse is a monster. Howard was a monster. KSE has had two amazing vocalists. I love how Jesse sings these songs in his own style, not trying to emulate Howard but just singing them how he sings them.

They are Both Great Vocalist of All Time
Howard And Jesse Best Combo in Killswitch Engage

He even nailed the extended "broken heart" note near the end, which I thought he wouldn't. People need to relax and stop treating this as some kind of Blaze Bayley vs Bruce Dickinson shit.
exactly they are both pretty good singers in their own way and people should realize that
That's really the point dude!
🤟🏻🇧🇷
jesse is awesome \m/
Holy shit, i was expecting Jesse to pale in comparison to Howard, but he can hold his own!
Why I love that part in 3:35?
Jesse sounds awesome
They have the best original and replacement vocalist.
Howard Jones forever
I love Howard
You can't replace Howard no matter how hard you try.. it's just impossible.
Maybe howard has superior voice skills but I prefer this band with its original member ,thats an incomparable vibe
Jessie is the man
Handsome 😍

I realize that Jesse preceded Howard but I have to admit the band seemed to be better with Howard. They were just better, vocally and otherwise.
I realized this myself a few days ago but my friends disagree.
howard's got suprior vocal chops live but his lyrics were overall weak and repetitive in content
There isn't one lineup of this band I haven't enjoyed, but Howard singing Jesse's lyrics is the most powerful combo.
I think Disarm the Descent and Alive or Just Breathing both captured the essence of mixing hardcore and metal, so I have to disagree. And as another commenter mentioned, Howard had very limited lyrical content, that kind of got whiny when 2009 hit.
Wrong
Eres grande Jesse /,,/
I miss howard
It's so sad watching this.....
the mixdown on this is like.. um what mixdown?
So heavy
guy in red hat at 2:21 gets me fucking pumped
Need to activate your copy of WIndows :) They're both great, but I might lean Howard a bit.

Love it, much respect
is adam meant to be hollywood hogan or something lol
Atvena how
Lol
I havent followed this band for awhile. After listening to this vocalist I can honestly say Howard is soo much better.
How do you feel now since Jesse has dropped 3 albums with Killswitch since his return? Jesse is underrated and deserves way more credit.
Jesse is complete... clean and scream!
nice
0:46
jesse is ok but m8 howard sounded even better live than in the record.. the lad is an absolute beast
I rebuke it in the name of JESUS!!
I can't stand change!!!
Cant stand change?well good luck to you in this world because change happens everyday.
its so hard to replace a singer. he did great but its still nothing compare to Howard.. not the same feeling.
Shadez Production Jesse is the original singer. Howard was the replacement. Just an FYI.
@@SHSULCA exactly. Some people don't know this. I hear the same argument about the band Accept when it comes to Dirkschneider and Tornillo.
After watching the same song from the DVD with Howard then to this it seems like the band itself was more happy if you will. Like hopping around or interacting with the fans more
Gasmask404 not true at all. Jesse brings awesome energy
I respectfully disagree. I have seen Killswitch atleast 2 or 3 times with Jesse fronting and Adam is still his silly self and Jesse brings great energy to the crowd. My dad liked Howard too but he said Jesse does great live. Plus you got to remember that DVD was back in what 2005? That was 16 years ago.

25 seconds goonzie in the background
velho chama o Howard de volta 😅😂
Let me see how this goes, this post is before I watched video.
What was your verdict, all mighty music critic?
Everyone must know your opinion so we can finally move on with our lives
Shit clean vocals
0:11 he really did need help with this song
hell no
Why did he sing then?
oh come on, this was a very decent performance
Where was this? Why does the lead vocalist look like a different person? Was he replaced?
That's Jesse. The original KSE vocalist. Howard Jones has a new band called light the torch. Check em out, I'm sure you'll recognize him as the 2nd KSE vocalist. Jesse rejoined after howard became ill. 🤘
It's like Bullet For My Valentine but good live
I really don’t really like him with the band , but bro lemme tell you this one he mad his own 🔥🤘
Lol this discussion jesse vs howard is as old as youtube. Its getting a bit sad now
I prefer these vocals..
No and no Howard jones all the way don’t care who’s original or not Howard Jones and this song gives me chills. I hear more passion from the fans singing in this song.
Jesse no le llega ni a los talones a howard
Juan Pablo a7x Jesse no es malo solo no tiene el rango vocal de Howard...
omg no
Howard Can sing both of their songs. Jesse can’t hit Howards songs. But I like em both
Who fucking sound checked this?
I really want to like jesse and i understand howard left for a genuine reason... but i just dont like KSE with jesse...
i like him because he stands up like someone doing a powerpoint presentation. Had enough of the theatrics and crying of the black guy
I felt exactly the same as you @Chris when Howard was the singer. I really wanted to like him, but I hated KSE with him as the vocalist. Jesse was far superior, and it just never sounded the same when Howard came in. So glad Jesse is back.
Polkinx I think ur lying lol
@@darrianthomas9819 hey man we all have our own opinions. You may prefer Howard but others prefer Jesse. Simple
XD
oh man..Howard Jones is 1000 times better it's sad
gigguk
Jesse tem um ótimo vocal, mas prefiro o Howard
Ele tem uma própria banda, vai lá escutar
max payne on KSE?? LoL
KSE was edgier with Jesse but i do like Howard singing better
Que carajo es esto youtube voy a ver el video de killswish y ustedes ponen una anuncio de la mierda 💩 música de anuel AA Rap 👎🏽. Esto es metal 🤟 no un canal de música basura 🗑 Mas respeto a nuestra música legendaria 🤟🤟🤟🤟😎
zup drake 😂
Howard screams and sings better but I still like Jesse
Jesse is awesome making growls but his clean vocals are weak. Technically Howard wrote this song so it belongs to him and he should sing it with the new band
c'mon bro , activate windows already
The comments dissing Jesses very good performance are pathetic.
Jesse did a fine job in this performance. Those who can't see that must be nasty, nasty guys!
Residente evil 2
Christ did the crowd show up to the wrong gig or something? Unenthusiastic af
Oh man, I haven't listened to these guys since Howard left. Just not worth it anymore.
You're insane
You are insane with that opinion. Killswitch Engage is still rocking it. You need to go to a live show with Jesse and you will see what I mean.
this guy's fufu
This cover is alright but Howard does it better
No way close to Howard
Howard Jones is head and shoulders better than Jesse Leach I don't care what anyone says
Howard Jones is better than Jesse Leach
howard did it better
This ain’t it chief lol Howard’s it is
howard is better
horrible live performance
W R O N G

This is really bad
STOP SINGING HOWARDS SONG!!!! THIS WILL ALWAYS BE HOWARDS SONG!!!! You might get away with others but EOH and The fire burns are forever HOWARDS!
DANTASTIC3000 wtf
Face it. Jesse is back and Howard is gone. If you can't accept that, go listen to another band.
bruh...
dude jesse wrote this song, howard sang a good portion of it on the record due to the timing of jesse's departure. but jesse wrote this song.
DANTASTIC3000 in fact he wrote it
Wow this suks
