Clutch from Germantown, MD & Killswitch Engage from Westfield, MA embarked on a co-headlining tour starting in Syracuse, NY. Being a co-headlining tour means both bands play a full set and alternate which bands closes. The bands brought along Cro-Mags along for direct support.

I have always seemed to miss Killswitch Engage whenever they came to town so this was a first for me. Was pumped to see the guys with Jesse Leach back on vocals.

Killswitch takes the stage and go directly into Strength Of The Mind. Throughout their show they brought so much passion and energy they carried over into the crowd. The faces in the crowd showed the pure love and joy the fans had for the band. Leach and company ended the night with an amazing cover of Dio’s Holy Diver.

1. Strength Of The Mind
2. This Fire
3. The Arms Of Sorrow

Being a fan of Clutch since forever i was beyond excited to cover this show. Had a chance last October on their tour with Sevendust, but ended up getting really sick. There was nothing that was gonna stop me from making this show this time.
