It's almost here, Killswitch Engage fans! The band's long-awaited 'Disarm the Descent' album, their first full-length release since original frontman Jesse Leach returned to the band, arrives April 2, but luckily you can hear it now in its entirety a week before its release.

The band began recording the hard-hitting effort early in 2012, shortly after announcing Leach's return to their lineup. Guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz, who has built up a major production resume in recent years, served as producer on the effort. The disc is currently streaming online here via Alternative Press.

Leach previously stated about the new album, "It is with a grateful spirit that we prepare for this record’s release. From the music, to the lyrics, to the artwork, we are all proud of what we have accomplished.” He added, “To me, this is by far my best vocal performance, much thanks to Adam’s guidance and faith in my abilities. I am very grateful to be where I am in life, back in an amazing band with a record we are all excited for the world to hear. Thanks to all the fans for their warm welcome back and their undying love for Killswitch Engage.”

Fans have already been treated to the album's lead single, 'In Due Time.' In addition to the song release, a performance video has been issued for the track. Pre-orders for the 'Disarm the Descent' album are currently being taken via the band's website here.
