KILLSWITCH ENGAGE: 'Starting Over' Video Available

June 6, 2009

"Starting Over", the new video from Massachusetts metallers KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, can be viewed below. (Note: Video stream may not be available to some non-U.S. residents.) The clip was directed by Lex Halaby, who also helmed KILLSWITCH ENGAGE's "My Curse" and "Rose Of Sharyn". Also check out a special "Headbangers Ball" episode Saturday night (June 6) on MTV2 at 2:00 a.m. EST with KILLSWITCH ENGAGE as guest hosts.

"Starting Over" comes off KILLSWITCH ENGAGE's self-titled fourth album, which is scheduled for release on June 30.

"This album will be the death of me," KILLSWITCH ENGAGE frontman Howard Jones tells RollingStone.com. "There was nothing comfortable about it for any of us," he says of making the record, most of which took place in Atlanta under the watchful eye of superproducer Brendan O'Brien (BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, AC/DC, PEARL JAM),marking the first time KILLSWITCH guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz has stepped aside for an outside producer.

"We're known for being a pretty positive band — we're almost a self-help band," Jones says. "I feel like Tony Robbins or something. We're known for anthems, but this time I really tried to write from a different place. I've got enough to draw on to write some stuff that can be dark. Maybe there's still a hint of positivity in it, but there are some songs on there that are not positive at all."

01. Never Again
02. Starting Over
03. The Forgotten
04. Reckoning
05. The Return
06. A Light In A Darkened World
