Sherman Theater Brings Killswitch Engage Atonement Tour 2022 to Poconos

Published by New Jersey Stage

originally published: 01/25/2022

(STROUDSBURG, PA) -- American metalcore band Killswitch Engage will rock the Sherman Theater on Main Street in Stroudsburg on Monday, January 31, with support from August Burns Red and Light the Torch on their Atonement Tour 2022 North America.  Doors are at 6:30pm, showtime is 7:30pm.

Killswitch Engage first shook the structure of heavy music upon climbing out of snowy industrialized Western Massachusetts in 2000. A musical outlier, the band pioneered a union of thrashed-out European guitar pyrotechnics, East Coast hardcore spirit, on-stage hijinks, and enlightened lyricism that set the pace for what the turn-of-the-century deemed heavy. 

2002’s Alive Or Just Breathing became avowed as a definitive album, being named among “The Top 100 Greatest Metal Albums of the Decade” by Decibel and celebrated by everyone from Metal Hammer to Revolver. Not only did they bust open the floodgates for dozens to follow, but they also garnered two GRAMMY® Award nominations in the category of “Best Metal Performance” in 2005 and 2014, respectively, and gold certifications for The End of Heartache [2004] and As Daylight Days [2006]. 

The group landed three consecutive Top 10 debuts on the BillboardTop 200 with Killswitch Engage [2009], Disarm The Descent [2013], and their career high best bow at #6 with Incarnate [2016]. The latter two releases would also both capture #1 on the Top Rock Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums charts. Their total streams have exceeded half-a-billion to date. 

Along the way, the boys have shared stages with some of the biggest acts in the world and have sold out countless headline gigs in six continents across the globe.

The quintet—Adam Dutkiewicz [lead guitar], Joel Stroetzel [rhythm guitar], Mike D’Antonio [bass], Justin Foley [drums], and Jesse Leach [vocals]—sharpen every side of this signature sound on their eighth full-length and first for Metal Blade, Atonement. The vision they shared two decades ago crystallizes like never before as evidenced by the first single “Unleashed,” “The Signal Fire” [feat.Howard Jones], “Crownless King” [feat. Chuck Billy], and “I Am Broken Too.”

Sherman Theater is located at 524 Main Street in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.
