Burn Eternal - Clear Purple Black Smoke Vinyl

Few names are as revered in metalcore as that of dynamic duo Howard Jones and Adam Dutkiewicz. Establishing the blueprint in New England’s burgeoning underground, Howard with Blood Has Been Shed, and Adam with Aftershock and then the legendary Killswitch Engage, the two would go on to join forces and play key roles in what would become eight seminal Killswitch years.

When the dust finally settled on the Howard-era of Killswitch, the duo had amassed an impressive resume of awards and accolades together, including the band's first of several GRAMMY nods for The End of Heartache, which also won best album at the 2004 Metal Hammer Golden God awards, as well as the 2006 platinum-selling As Daylight Dies which remains the most-selling Killswitch album to date.

Howard’s departure from Killswitch in 2010 eventually kicked off a prolific journey of musical output from his bands Devil You Know, who won best new band at the 2012 Golden God Awards, Light The Torch, who put forth two critically acclaimed albums with 2018’s Revival and 2021’s You Will Be the Death of Me and SION with YouTube star Jared Dines. His revered vocals have made guest appearances on a wide array of music by Body Count, Crobot, and Dee Snider to name a few.

Meanwhile Adam has remained a Killswitch stalwart for 25+ years as a founding member, producer, prolific writer and of course accomplished guitarist. He has lent his production chops to an impressive list of bands that includes Underoath, Parkway Drive, Shadows Fall, as well as to his own projects Times of Grace and Serpentine Dominion. Now, nearly 14 years later, the dynamic duo returned to the studio and emerged with Burn Eternal’s debut self-titled record, out via Metal Blade records on February 26, 2027.
