How to Killswitch Engage in 30 seconds  

For those of you who wanted a full song version of this, it's out now under Nik Nocturnal & For The Fallen Dreams "Devour" to stream/download here: open.spotify.com/album/2xkpuG6PpU59UYw9xodHyF

WE NEED A FULL VERSION!!!

"As daylight dies" and "the fall of ideals" are the pinnacle of metalcore. Change my mind.

Let us hope Jared Dines can help Nik get Howard Jones to do the vocals.

If Nik managed to get Howard Jones to do vocals on the full version, I will be the happiest man alive!

This is definitely gonna be a full song it’s too good not to

I fucking love this. Never have I wanted a full version as much as this one.

We need Howard Jones on vocals!!!!

I am once again asking you to release the full song Nik.

😢❤ love those melodic dreamy reverbs and cleans

Dude we need a FULL VERSION with Howard Jones!! 🤘

You sir, are a guitar chameleon! One of the most versatile players I’ve ever seen that can adapt to literally ANY style. Keep up the amazing work

Felt like I got transported back to 2004. This felt nostalgic.

WE NEED A FULL VERSION! KSE were my teenage years!

Wow dude. I'm impressed with how you grasp exactly what makes that specific band sound exactly like it does. You're more talented than many realise 🤘

Now we need Jesse, Howard and Adam D to guest your vocals for this track

they were my favorite guitar duo for metalcore.. such nice chords and mixture of sounds.

Now we need a full version with Howard Jones as vocalist

You just summed up everything I love about this band and this genre.

You know the drill... we need the full version of this

Massive wave of nostalgia hit me hard. This is incredible. ❤️

One of my all time favorite bands

this is my favorite one of these you've ever done

Would love a full version, even instrumental would be sick!

I’m standing right here until I get a FULL VERSION!!! Was f^}$ing epic!!!

One of the fucking best metalcore styles ever.

I can't wait for the full version. Imagine if he got Howard to do the vocals.

Killswitch is my favorite band right now!

Hits me in my core ❤ stellar riffs Nik 🤘

I've waited for this one. So patiently. I knew it was coming and I wasn't disappointed. So I'll see you guys in about two weeks when the full version is released, yeah? I mean, you pretty much HAVE to try to get Howard involved right?

People saying "this sounds more like BFMV, AILD, ATR" etc... need to be remembered or be informed that every metalcore band is just an Alive or Just Breathing rip off, the album that shaped this genre. So actually, the other bands that sounds like killswitch hahaha

Yeah, another full version, my dude. This was too good.

How I love this videos...... Love the sound too.... Perfect

Haha killed it again, i "feel caught out" since I mainly grew up with Killswitch and you really nailed all the Stuff I like about them (guitar wise). Keep up the good work ❤

Finally! Thanks, Nik, I was waiting for this one

The man doesn’t miss

Gotta hear the full version man!🤘🏼love it!

Here we go, another full song to write for Nik

My favorite metalcore band

So... full version writing stream this Thursday I guess

Very cool, and that lick at the very end is effing sick!!

Absolute banger. The end of the riff is perfection. I want the rest! Get Howard Jones!

FINALLY WHAY I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR Jared for vocals lets go

Now Get Howard Jones to sing over it

Man, this is your best one. Love it

Do we even need to ask for a full version at this point?

You are nailing it every time!🙌

We need electric callboy, ice nine kills and motionless in white.

Was skeptical at first. But kse was what really got me into true metal. Love this 🖤

Dude your so talented this is spot on

Dude you're too good lmao I loved this

This melody is amazing 🥰🥰🥰

Yeah, gonna need a full version of this please Nik!

We need more of thirsty seconds to Nik! Brilliant

Absolute fire. Full version PLEASE. This is the best one I've ever heard from you!

Can’t believe you just made this up. The Killswitch Gods are smirking like Goku right now

You've correct. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. and you've opened my eyes! That they all have their own specific style and its beautiful that way.

YEP and another full version needed. :)) BADLY NEEDED!

I literally just listened to Killswitch Engage the first time yesterday. Nice timing Nik

i think this is the first nik short that i've actually wanted a full video for

Yessssss please do full version!!!

These “in 30 seconds” clips are literally my new favorite series!… 😅❤️ They’re always sooo good!!!… 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Dude, I don't Think I can get enough of the KSE sound. The harshness perfectly mixed with all the pretty sounds. It's a perfect combination. Like really fresh chips and salsa. You know exactly what it tastes like and have had it many times before, but you just can't get enough.

Absolutely needs to be a full video!!!

We all love Howard and he deserves all the love but guys.. Jesse kicks ass too, he’s stepped up his vocals biiig time and is only getting better. KSE is my favourite band, both singers rule!!! 🤘🍻great job Nik you’re the man!

Theres a reason theyre one of my favorites

KSE is iconic ❤ and you just successfully distilled the essence of their songs into this short.

The palm muted arpeggios are iconic

It was so on point! Please do a full song with Anthony Vincent

Dude! That was really good👏👏👏

From the first note I was in love! 😍 - that clean picking reminded me a little of Dance Gavin Dance, which should be your next "How to DGD in 30 seconds" 🙏

WE REALLY NEED A FULL VERSION OF THIS

YES! Can't wait for the inevitable full version! This hits hard!

Definitely need a full version I done watched this video I know at least 13 times in a row

This is absolutely fantastic

There it is finally. Sittin and waitin for a full version

One of my top ten fav bands

As someone who didnt discover metalcore until I was in my 30’s I fucking love this

This gave me actual goosebumps. You absolutely nailed the sound of my favorite band of all time. You are an absolute genius

The full release of this version is fucking amazing. You need to make a record of this style. What a kickass song.

Goddam incredible. This is fantastic. 🤘🏻

best one of these you've done homie

Ok well my body covered itself in chill bumps and my brain went back in time more years than I care to think about. Solid fucking “How To”, my man.

My favourite band, I hope we get a full version!

My favorite band. If you did a full song of theirs, I would love to hear it. I've loved your other full tracks so far!
