I remember back in 2010 I came home from a bad day of high school and this interview popped up and give me a lot of laughs. It's weird to come back to it so many years later.
That's crazy man! I wish past me would have commented on this so I can find it haha I'm just happy this video is still up because for 7 minutes and 51 seconds I can relive a bit of my teenage years.
That interviewer definitely wasn't prepared and/or had to fill in for someone else, and in his decision to wing it, he decided to have some fun with it and troll. I mean, he told the guys that they sound like a pantera rip off lol.
Most awkward interview ever translates to most hilarious, epic interview ever. Usually when interviewers don't know what the hell they're talking about pisses me off, but this guy was hilarious. If he wasn't interviewing Killswitch, I probably would have hated this guy, but the band is so laid back, they were able to see the humor. Go ksE!
I love how the interviewer tries to compensate for his embarassment by hurling grade-school insults at them, "Sounds like a Pantera rip off or something.." And that he likes their shoes.
I might be wrong, but everyone who's talking shit about the interviewer, I really think the guy knows the band and when they came to wherever he lives for a show, it was set up to be a funny, awkward interview.
I totally agree with you. This was most likely well prepared by the interviewer. There is not a single situation where the interviewer does NOT make them laugh. I mean seriously, every question was a failure. This surely cannot be a coincident. folks get real.
Ive probably watched this video more than 20 times, and here I am, 6 to 7 years later, literally crying, growing a solid 12 pack, out of pure, unadulterated laughter 👏 this shit is 24k gold.
I find it incredible that they've only been together about 9 years, almost 10. It feels so much longer than that because of everything they've accomplished!
So brilliant, I had to find this gem again haha Honestly thought this was all on purpose from the interviewer for ages. Thoughts? Whether he knew of them behind the scenes or not or was a fan, approaching an interview like you have no idea while scary, is guaranteed entertainment. The guy was either clever or clueless!
OMG This interview was the best. I wanna hang with this band every single day. I'd blow my gut hundreds of times a day from laughter XP Epic win/fail interview depending on how you view it!
While watching this I got a random phone call from Pennsylvania. This is the most random Killswitch Engage interview I've seen lol. Been listening to them since 2010.
hahahahahah although this video is almost 5 years old, I still get a kick out of it every time I watch it!!!!!! How ridiculous!!! I wish Howard didn't have to leave, he had such great chemistry with these guys!
"I've been a Killswitch fan ever since you started back in '98"
"Yeah we didn't start till '99....you were waaay into us before we even started!"
" so what do you guys listen to besides Pantera?" - lost my shit.
The best part of the interview hahahahahaha
"What's the new album called?"
Howard: "as you die on camera" LMAO
This was my favourite bit 😂😂
"I haven't eaten in days"
corn paws funniest god damn thing i have ever heard in my life
Pennywise : " kiss me fat boy "
drugs
Favorite part of this whole video is that Howard is just fucking dying the entire time.
His laugh makes me laugh lol
I know it's so wholesome ❤
This isnt awkward this is funny as fuck
Agreed, also nice pfp
i NEVER MENT to write this comment
@@michaelangelo4010 heh
Awkward for the interviewer
I remember back in 2010 I came home from a bad day of high school and this interview popped up and give me a lot of laughs. It's weird to come back to it so many years later.
1:42
Bro you're absolutely right. Found my comment I made 14 years ago! Crazy
That's crazy man! I wish past me would have commented on this so I can find it haha I'm just happy this video is still up because for 7 minutes and 51 seconds I can relive a bit of my teenage years.
It's great to see Howard so happy
"I knew it was Andy who produced."
Adam: "Andy?"
Howard: "Who's Andy?"
LOL
This was probably a joke interview.. he seems like he's pulling a "Between Two Ferns" sort of thing
That interviewer definitely wasn't prepared and/or had to fill in for someone else, and in his decision to wing it, he decided to have some fun with it and troll. I mean, he told the guys that they sound like a pantera rip off lol.
Hades Gamma True, gotta give him credit for not walking out I guess lol.
Probably the perfect band to do this with.
3:23 Mike with the finger!!!
Lmaooooooooo I've seen this five times at least and I never noticed!
I can't believe it took me 13 years to stumble across this gem of an awkward interview... but I'm glad I finally did. lol wow.
Took me a month longer than that
Took me a year longer than that
Took me a decade and 4 days longer than that.
this is literally the greatest interview in recorded history.
I completely lost it at 4:08 hahaha!!!! , Adam just running around and Howard just losing it makes it even more hilarious LOL!!!!
U mean Andy
"Whose Andy??"
Rooofl
This video is as funny now as it was when I first saw it, almost 3 years ago.
Yeah same dude, I still head back to this video every few months to watch it.
What about now? 3 other years later
6 years now
I saw it back in 2008
He lost all credibility when he said he's been a fan since 98.......one year before they even started hahaha this shit is too funny.
He's so hipster, he listened to them before they were formed.
He was into them before they were born. He just knows stuff.
But dude, you telling me you never got the year wrong on something? He was only off by 1 year
@@HugoStiglitz88 no sir I'm not human I know it exactly on the dot😂
Howard's laugh just makes me laugh even more ;o
This guy just gets destroyed
Howard Jones=Black Seth Rogan
Sean Esqueda same thought!
yes!!
Sean Esqueda same!!

They were able to see the humor because they were laughing at him, not with him lol he was so scared and ashamed
holy shit they tore that guy apart ! lol
Soundtrack to your escape
When In Flames decided to become Korn 5 years too late lol
That guy was trying so hard not to cry! XD
That was the greatest interview I've ever seen in my life! XD
CZcams doesn't seem to be able to handle Killswitch's awesomeness
+WeAreTheInevitable yea :^/ video isnt playing for me either right now lol
+brian andreasen Yeah the video is broken. You have to wait like 5-10 min for it to start which is bs
Howard's laugh is so contagious, he's amazing
10 years later this is still good for a laugh
It's like that one kid that didn't finish his project so he's just trying to get through it as he goes
Howards laugh is fucking contagious. I'm dying right now.
This is pure gold. Howard’s laugh at 3:07 is priceless
"I haven't eaten in days" hahaha
best Part
ive seen this so many times. still to this day cracks me up like crazy
I can relate to having bad anxiety but damn man that's why you prepare extra hard before hand so you dont end up in this situation.
"my name is greg and this has been a failiure" lol best ending ever
I think about this interview all the time lol
it was a comedic performance guys, obviously he knows who kse is and is messing with them it's called trolling and he's great at it
I love how the interviewer tries to compensate for his embarassment by hurling grade-school insults at them, "Sounds like a Pantera rip off or something.."
And that he likes their shoes.
I wouldn't even call that grade school lol he knows what he is doing also fool. Trolling!

I honestly comeback and watch this video once a year just to feel this awkwardness again lmao
lol what did I just watch? I'm struggling to decide whether the interviewer was joking...
So what do you guys listen besides like Pantera?
Howard sounds like Seth rogan
This was probably Greg's last interview lol
Best worst interview ever
there needs to be more interviews like this, this was hilarious :P
Ive probably watched this video more than 20 times, and here I am, 6 to 7 years later, literally crying, growing a solid 12 pack, out of pure, unadulterated laughter 👏 this shit is 24k gold.
And here I am again, laughing my ass into oblivion, what a great example of involuntary comedy.
@@qRESCOlol
This guy was like Jarrod Alonge before Jarrod Alonge was Jarrod Alonge
Haha that's so true!
Still the greatest band interview ever. Comedy gold.
Been watching this vid for 2 years and I still laugh my ass off everytime
First time watching this and my favorite part of when Howard said "oh yeah!" after the Pantera rip off statement.
End of 2022, merry Christmas and happy new year n all that. This interview is still awesome.
This is a bonafide internet classic. I remember watching this like 10 years and thinking of the Adam D being Andy bit. Way too funny.
This is actually my favorite interview of any band.
lol I haven't eaten in days 😂😂😂
Have you listen to the new Killswitch album?
Best interview ever dude you're so jittery right now. I haven't eaten in days omg I'm dying
This is still amazing 14 years later.
I find it incredible that they've only been together about 9 years, almost 10. It feels so much longer than that because of everything they've accomplished!
22... Almost 23
"so you guys got new album comin out, wanna talk about that?"
"Nope"
LOL fkn adam.
Most fun and best interview EVER! It doesn't get old..
I think about this interview from time to time and just laugh to myself. That dude was NOT prepared. 😂
I died at that solid state joke haha
its funny how much more you learn about a band through naturally flowing interviews such as this, than by standard question answer ones.
So brilliant, I had to find this gem again haha
Honestly thought this was all on purpose from the interviewer for ages. Thoughts? Whether he knew of them behind the scenes or not or was a fan, approaching an interview like you have no idea while scary, is guaranteed entertainment. The guy was either clever or clueless!
I watch this at least once a month! Lol!
my god this was painful to watch..
is it just me or does howard sound like seth rogen???
One of my favorite videos ever
“Just more Pantera riffs then?” This is AWESOME!
"I haven't eaten in days."
"Dude you were way into us before we started" best part.
They were so chill, it's great.
OMG This interview was the best. I wanna hang with this band every single day. I'd blow my gut hundreds of times a day from laughter XP
Epic win/fail interview depending on how you view it!
Never have I enjoyed a video this much. I love Killswitch for being so cool with him and I love this guy for embarrassing himself!
This wasn't awkward it was just sooooo funny
"when you come back on work on monday after 1 week of heavy partying"
‘Are you guys excited to . . . play music for a livi-what am I saying?’
I lost it at 4:09
Somebody please make that Howard's laugh gif happen 😂
After the interview
Greg: So.... Do... Umm... Do you kick balls?
The Band: BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Cant even play this video
Kudos for sticking with it to the end, interview man!
"You were into us before we even started" LMAO! this is epic.
where are you guys from? Michigan? I've been a fan since '98 lol
"Dude you where way into us before we even started" LOL
This has got to be one of the best interviews ever.
I'll be known as Andy, thank you.
I HAVENT LAFFED THAT HARD IN WEEKS. THIS IS HILARIOUS
Laughed*
@@kyleparker2168 a few years late man
Still one of the greatest videos on CZcams
5:13 hahahaha Howard fucking directs interviewer to the right person for that question - "there you go!", like a sober person helps a drunk kid
The whole crap a Payday had me in tears, Adam is just crazy.
"Pantera rip off" duh wtf
OH yeaaaaahhhhhhhhh
"I'm sorry I'm probably offending all of you with my lack of preparation"
At least he admits he's bad at this gotta give it to him
i need more interviews with this dude
the intervewier that is best to deal with bands acting like this is nardwuar
Adam is the great person in the world, never fail to make me die laughing.
*andy
