News and band name seem pretty familiar, are you sure this is new stuff or am I having a fucking dodgy deja vu?

Umm the youtube video for the promo was added 2 days ago, but I don't remember seeing an article for this before, so I don't think its a repost.

This band had some demos up a few months ago that were terrible. This sounds much more promising though.

The first screamed line in that song sounds like "Wage war upon the homeless"

If this is anything like "Alive Or Just Breathing", it will be amazing.

I thought is was about Jones, but this should be awesome considering Jesse was good with Killswitch/Seemless

Haven't heard Leach-era KE. If its anything like the Howard Jones horseshit, I'm probably not missing much.

I didn't care for his voice with KsE much at all, but it sounds rather fresh and unique with this project.

I'll give it a listen.
