Not satanic, not Christian (although there are Christians in the band) and certainly not worth anyone's time.

this is getting ridiculous. have you even read their lyrics? or do you just assume that because they scream they must be satanic?

Honestly, who cares? They aren't satanic but they suck so bad you shouldn't listen to them anyways.

I like them and I love those spoof lyrics!

Hello friend, Killswitch Engage is most deffinately not a satanic band. They do not come out and say "we are a christian band" but most of the members of the band have stated that they are in fact christians. Also, almost every song they write have some type of message about christ.

for example. the song When Darkness Falls lyrics

as you walk
the path of least resistance
is it that simple
as you claim it to be
cut out
your tounge
your eyes
your lies
they do decieve you
your tounge
your eyes
your lies
they do decieve you

i stand firm in my solidarity
the path i walk (the path i walk)
i walk in with my own resolve
when darkness falls (when darkness falls)
we are reborn
a dream since the fall of man
we are reborn

but the lives
are not yet depleted
we are the whole
save us of all
with not just words
let resolution be our voice

i stand firm in my solidarity
the path i walk (the path i walk)
i walk in with my own resolve
when darkness falls (when darkness falls)
we are reborn
a dream since the fall of man
we are reborn

we are the remnant
we the remnant will save us of all
we are the faithful
we the faithful will save us of all
save us of all

when darkness falls (when darkness falls)
we are reborn
a dream since the fall of man
we are reborn
when darkness falls (when darkness falls)
we are reborn
a dream since the fall fo man
we are reborn

Almost all of the songs written by Killswitch have messages of christ in them. And on top of that, all of the members are PRESTEGIOUS musicians. Killswitch Engage is a very good influence for any upcomming musicians.

I hope this helped

They are far from Satanic. Check out some of their lyrics. They actually have a lot of positive and uplifting lyrics.

I have all of KSE's albums. They're not for everyone, but I don't expect someone who likes lady gaga or any bubblegum pop to like them, and no they're not satanic even some christian metal groups scream and "roar". Would you call them less of a christian because they minister to a certain sub-culture?.

Killswith Engage are awesome . I love their music, all talaneted guys, no denying that one! Howard's clean singing voice is amazing aswell as his screams. Yeah i wouldn't say they're "christian" as a band exactly although i believe members of the band are indeed yes. Awesome songs, check them out. I saw them last year at Download Festival, was brilliant.

Yes they are very Satanic any band that promotes killing switches is very very evil

 

[ChristianPilot]

Yes they are very Satanic any band that promotes killing switches is very very evil

But switches are evil and should be killed at every opportunity!

All joking aside if you like the music, and it's not literally "satanic", whats to stop you from listening to it?

They're not "Christian" because they're part of another genre, but what's to stop you from interpreting and using the lyrics for whatever you want? If any song uplifts or entertains me, I enjoy it as I try to enjoy all of God's blessings.

I love the video for their cover of "Holy Diver". Absolutely hilarious.

From what I have read Killswitch Engage is not christian, they are straight edge which as far as I can tell is the same thing minus worshipping Jesus and caring what the Bible says.

 

[Martyr17]

They hold true to many spiritual references in their lyrics, while it may not be christain there definetly is some references in their lryics to the christain faith

 

[ampbelle3130]

i love love love killswitch. they are most definitely not a satanic band.
when jesse leach was the lead singer, they actually sang a lot of faith based songs. [for You, save me]

they are not a Christian band but the members are Christians.

Some members are Christian though.
