KILLSWITCH ENGAGE To Release Live At The Palladium Album In June; "Know Your Enemy" Live Video Streaming

On August 6, 2021, three-time Grammy-nominated hard rock heavyweights and platinum-selling band, Killswitch Engage, unleashed a streaming event that took fans by storm. The event took place at The Palladium in Worcester in the band's native Massachusetts, which has been the site of many iconic KsE shows throughout the band's history. The performance setlist consists of 2019's Atonement in full, along with their 2000-released, self-titled debut album in full - with some fun and unexpected surprises along the way. This special event was directed by David Brodsky and Allison Woest for MyGoodEye.

This compelling performance will be available for the first time digitally, on 2LP, and 2CD/Blu-ray on June 3 via Metal Blade. Pre-order it here and here. A video for "Know Your Enemy" from the upcoming release can be found below.

"This song speaks volumes about the state of the world, not only when I wrote the lyrics, but today, as well," says singer Jesse Leach. "It shines a light on the various protest songs we've written over the years. To me, the message is equally important as the music, and this song is no exception. And regardless of who we have become as a band, we still have our roots firmly planted in hardcore music."

In other KsE news, the band, recognized by Forbes as one of "metal's most cherished acts," have earned another impressive accolade. Their fourth album, As Daylight Dies, released by Roadrunner Records on November 21, 2006, has been certified platinum in the US by the RIAA. The record produced fan favourites such as "My Curse" and "The Arms Of Sorrow" and was certified gold in the UK by the BPI in April 2021.

The band also received a platinum certification for the aforementioned single "My Curse," as well as gold awards for 2004's The End Of Heartache (certified silver by the BPI in the UK in 2006) and the Set This World Ablaze DVD. The single "The End Of Heartache" and their cover of Dio's "Holy Diver" are also certified gold in the US, with album Alive Or Just Breathing clinching silver status in the UK in 2013.
