KILLSWITCH ENGAGE bassist Mike D'Antonio recently told Billboard.com that his group is unlikely to release a new studio album before 2009.

"We are considering starting an album at the end of [2008] at this point," D'Antonio said. "We're not gonna stop touring on this record ('As Daylight Dies') until at least the end of April, and I know we're probably going to do a run of all the festivals in Europe in June and July. After that, I believe then we're gonna start talking about writing a new record."
