Step behind the console with Alex Markides, the Front of House Engineer for Killswitch Engage, as we dive into what it takes to deliver the band’s massive, high-energy sound night after night. Known for their crushing riffs, soaring vocals, and dynamic live shows, Killswitch relies on Alex to keep the mix powerful, balanced, and clear in every venue.

In this interview, Alex shares his approach to mixing heavy music, the challenges of keeping clarity in such a dense sonic landscape, and the gear and workflows he trusts on tour. We also dig into his journey as a live sound engineer, what it’s like working with one of metalcore’s most influential bands, and the moments on the road that stand out the most.

Whether you’re an aspiring FOH engineer, a touring audio pro, or just a fan of Killswitch Engage who wants to know what it takes to make the show sound massive from front to back, this episode pulls back the curtain on one of the most vital roles in live music.
