piky0032 378 Report post Posted April 14 2017 marks the 15 year anniversary of the release of 'Alive Or Just Breathing'. To commemorate this occasion, we're releasing a 180-Gram black vinyl edition of the album, to be released in stores on May 12, 2017! You can preorder it now along with exclusive merch at our official store: http://www.shopbenchmark.com/killswitchengage The vinyl will also be available on tour starting 5/5 in Long Island. So you can celebrate the anniversary (not to mention Cinco De Mayo!) properly, we've teamed up with our good friends at Cigar City Brewing for our very own New England Style IPA - 'Alive Or Just Brewing'! The beer can be found in limited release in the New York City and Tampa, FL markets, as well as on tap at the Cigar City Tasting Room in Tampa. The beer will also be tapped at The Paramount for our May 5 show on the #Killthrax Tour with Anthrax, The Devil Wears Prada and Code Orange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VinylMario 161 Report post Posted April 14 I liked this singer the best back then. I was kinda upset when he left the band at first but later got used to Howard's sound. 1 piky0032 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadowkid33 206 Report post Posted April 14 This was one of my first favorite metal albums in high school and I've been waiting for it to get pressed for years. Couldn't be more excited, holding out to see if any variants drop before I order! 2 piky0032 and pizza face reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slightly underwhelmed by the pre order options......would have expected a cool box set.....bit more imagination would have been nice Still stoked its getting pressed finally Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Le Gogh 292 Report post Posted April 14 Yes!!! Finally! I was literally wondering this week if it would ever be pressed. Definitely in for this. 1 piky0032 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VinylMario 161 Report post Posted April 14 Same here glad it's being pressed, but over $32 shipped? Maybe I will wait it out a bit and see if Amazon gives a better deal... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Le Gogh 292 Report post Posted April 14 Yeah having just looked, it's $24 shipped to the UK. I'll hold out for some UK stock, or AMAZON USA to get it in or something. 1 piky0032 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piky0032 378 Report post Posted April 14 Have seen them both live a couple of times and after seeing the AOJB tour im absolutely a Jesse Fan But they are both rad.....EOHA and Daylight were on such heavy rotation for me when they were released...and for years after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andydrums 67 Report post Posted April 14 So happy this is finally being pressed. Pretty sure Jesse told someone on twitter a while back that they were also planning to press the first s/t album. The End of Heartache & As Daylight Dies were only repressed a couple of years ago....That's when I got my TEIH, so can't see those being repressed just yet.

I haven't seen any repressed and discogs show they were only pressed in 06/07, so about 10 years... 1 pizza face reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
regan138 22 Report post Posted April 14 Bummer....I thought they'd do a color run or something special for the anniversary and all. This was a very important album for me years ago....slightly let down, but happy the album will get a proper vinyl release finally. 1 piky0032 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KSE just doesn't hit home for me like they used to since Howard's departure. Fingers crossed Roadrunner represses EOH and As Daylight Dies, along with a pressing of the last S/T release. But we all know Roadrunner refuses to issue represses....i.e Slipknot's Iowa.

jeffthomas84 172 Report post Posted April 17 Jesse all the way seen them both 5 times live.. Howard has more range on highs, but fell flat many times I seen them live with him. Love them both though. This is 1 of the most important crossover albums ever Anyone has a hookup on the Beer, PM me we can work out a trade 1 piky0032 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
