Former KILLSWITCH ENGAGE frontman, and current SEEMLESS frontman, Jesse Leach, has announced the launch of his new side-project that will see a return to his "aggressive vocals", and will involve former members of NOTHING STAYS GOLD, L.B.A., ROSWELL, EMISSION, ADVOCATE, BRADFORD AVE..

The project has been described by Leach to be, "early 90s Hardcore (108, DEADGUY, UNBROKEN) / D.C. Style Heavy Hardcore / Indy Rock (AT THE DRIVE IN, HOOVER, LINCOLN) and a little bit of chaos and noise mixed in...", with the lyrical content targeting "Corrupt politicians, Government, Corporate/Multinational Industry, Thieves, Liars, Racism, Bigotry, Unequality, people who dwell in the shadows".

More information is expected to be released shortly.

Jesse, it's too late to save yourself. You were great in Killswitch, but then you went and did Seemless, and I'll never forgive you. You shouldn't of quit what you were best at, bro. I don't even think I'll check out your new crap. Oh well.

He was great in KSE, and Seemless is really nothing to special. Bad move on his part, but maybe he can win some fans back with his new sh**.

yeah Seemless was a letdown. Too bluesy-southern rock for my taste, it seems very sincere and is quite well done but it's just not for my taste. I wish Jesse all the luck in all his pojects though and will give this new project a chance as well.

I want a band name.

yeah the first 2 killswitch albums gave me goose bumps....3rd ones damn good (Howard Jones is probably one of the best living replacements, cant fault the band on that) but Jesse Leach is "impossible" to top.
