Video Premiere: KILLSWITCH ENGAGE's 'Cut Me Loose'

"Cut Me Loose", the new video from Massachusetts metallers KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, can be seen below. Directed by Jeremy Danger and Travis Shinn, the clip was filmed on September 8 in Utah's world-famous Bonneville Salt Flats. The video is said to be "a new imagining" of the powerful song from the band's latest album "Incarnate", which was released in March 2016 via Roadrunner Records.

Speaking to Metal Hammer, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE frontman Jesse Leach stated about "Cut Me Loose": "My vocal work on this album is the best I've ever done.

"I got my voice in shape from touring and sort of hit my stride, and instead of resting on my laurels, I wanted to take it up a notch.

"I got comfortable with the higher register of my voice and decided to play with it a little bit.

"I actually sat down at a piano with my vocal teacher and learned where my range is. I'd shy just from the top note of that range where certain vowel sounds were easier to hit.

"Knowing your voice and your instrument is important, and I wrote this song very specifically for the top of my range. It's a really personal song, too.

"There's a reason why I reference the word 'noose' in the chorus and it refers to a time when I felt suicidal.

"The song is about looking back on your life, taking stock of where you are and the pain that you've experienced. But the song isn't just about me — it's a mixed message and 'noose' is the key word.

"The song is pretty dark if you read the lyrics with that in mind."
