Killswitch Engage (2009 album)

Killswitch Engage is the fifth studio album by American metalcore band Killswitch Engage. It was released on June 30, 2009 through Roadrunner Records. It is the band's second album to be self-titled, the first being their debut album. It was produced by Adam Dutkiewicz and Brendan O'Brien. It debuted and peaked at number 7 on the Billboard 200, selling 58,000 copies in its first week, making it one of the band's highest charting albums to date. The album's reception from critics and fans has been generally mixed, with praise directed towards Howard Jones' vocals and criticism directed towards Dutkiewicz's and O'Brien's production and the album's reliance on formula.

It was supported by three singles, "Reckoning", "Starting Over", and "Save Me", as well as two music videos. This is the band's final studio album to feature Howard Jones on lead vocals.

Background

The album was officially announced in late 2008. Recording began in October 2008 with Dutkiewicz and co-producer Brendan O'Brien.

    2000 MAN

    by: Kiss

    Well, my name it is a number it's on a piece of plastic film
    And I've been growin' funny flowers outside on my little window sill
    Don't you know I'm a 2,000 man
    And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
    You know, my wife still respects me even though I really misuse her
    I am having an affair with the Random computer
    Don't you know I'm a 2,000 man
    And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
    Oh daddy, proud of your planet, oh mommy, proud of your sun
    Oh daddy, proud of your planet, oh mommy, proud of your sun
    Oh daddy, your brain's still flashin' like they did when you were young
    Or did they come down crashin' seeing all the thing's you'd done
    Spacin' out havin' fun
    Oh daddy, proud of your planet, oh mommy, proud of your sun
    Oh daddy, proud of your planet, oh mommy, proud of your sun
    Oh daddy, your brain's still flashin' like they did when you were young
    Or did they come down crashin' seeing all the thing's you'd done
    Spacin' out havin' fun
    Don't you know I'm a 2,000 man
    And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
    Don't you know I'm a 2,000 man
    And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
    Understand me, understand me, understand me
    Don't you know I'm a 2,000 man
    And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
    Don't you know I'm a 2,000 man
    And my kids, they just don't understand me at all
    I'm a 2,000 man, I'm a 2,000 man
    I'm a 2,000 man, I'm a 2,000 man
