“Killswitch Engage is about flipping the switch, and sending things into a grinding halt, both musically and emotionally,” states Killswitch Engage bassist Mike D'Antonio. Dead stop. A single, focused emotional and physical release. That is the feeling at Killswitch's core. Alive or Just Breathing, the Massachussetts-area band's Roadrunner debut is a white-hot explosion of spirit and substance. “It's an iron-ore enema!” enthuses guitarist and album producer Adam Dutkiewicz.

From the first note, Alive or Just Breathing is about impact. While Killswitch Engage revel in heaviness and cobra-like riffing, there's also a sense of fraily that underscores their melodic din. Their subtle use of melody of melody makes their songs all the more affecting and poignant. Tracks like the brutally grooving “Fixation on the Darkness” and “Just Barely Breathing” run the gamut of emotions, yet never waver in intensity. “It's heavy. It's melodic. It's passionate. It's got a lot to say,” says Dutkiewicz. ”It's not a typical record in any sense. It's Killswitch Engage.”
