Killswitch Engage canceled their touring plans back in April after vocalist Jesse Leach needed emergency vocal cord surgery. This also meant the new album's tracking sessions would be put on hold. Leach came out of the surgery just fine and says his voice is even better post-operation.
Now according to his Instagram, he's back in the studio with the band knocking out the new album which is likely due out sometime in 2019. We wish him all the best in his continued recovery after the surgery, and of course we're excited for the new album!
This is one of my weapons in the daily battle for my mental health. Big ups to @statebicycleco for making slick, fast and rad single speed bikes. After knocking out some solid material in the studio I rode a fast 20 miles and now feel like a damn champion ha ha! After pouring my heart and soul into these past two songs (still gotta finish one) I am mentally exhausted. However that being said, I have that feeling I get when I know it’s a crucial song. Anytime I get chills or tears form when the playback is rolling, I know I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing. Yeah tears, tears are metal AF!! you bastards stop frontin’ ha ha…I’m writing songs for my people my headcases just like me, believe that! Got some anthems coming your way on this album! .
So yeah back to the riding, it legit takes me out of myself and gives me a pure joy like nothing else. I live for that biker buzz, it’s amazing! .
**Also repping that Stretch and Bobbito gear because they are damn Legends! Yo @stretchandbobbito “what’s good” with more podcasts, or nah? .
