Killswitch Engage parted ways with vocalist Howard Jones in 2012, but over the years have improved their relationship. Jones has been joining Killswitch Engage on stage here and there to play some of his old material, and even had him in the studio for guest spot on their 2019 album Atonement.
Now in what can only be called "an extremely pleasant surprise," Jones and his former Killswitch Engage guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz have revealed they're working on new music together. The project will be the first time Jones and Dutkiewicz have been in a band together since Killswitch Engage's 2009 self-titled album. Nothing else is known about the group right now aside from that they're demoing new material, but still – its safe to get stoked.
No word on if this project has anything to do with Jones being in the studio last year with System Of A Down bassist Shavo Odadjian and Winds Of Plague guitarist Michael Montoya. As for Dutkiewicz, he and current Killswitch Engage vocalist Jesse Leach put out the first new Times Of Grace record in a decade in 2021.
