Killswitch Engage frontman Jesse Leach has teased his new hardcore punk project The Weapon in a short video.
Leach posted the clip on his Instagram feed and says: “The Weapon, my hardcore punk project, will be dropping two songs soon.
“Some clips of the back up vocals getting recorded and some sneak peak of some demos. This is a band formed for the love of the music and for all of us to be able to jam and eventually play some shows.
“Four dudes having fun making some noise! Recorded at Dark City Studios in Yonkers, NY, with my dude Andy Mass at the controls – he’s also our drummer.”
Killswitch Engage are also working on the follow-up to 2016’s Incarnate, which is expected to be released later this year. They’ll hit the road with Anthrax and Havok later this month for a run of shows across North America.
Leach’s other project Times Of Grace reported last month that they were in the studio working on the follow-up to 2011’s The Hymn Of A Broken Man.
