In addition to the video premiere and in keeping with The Talkhouse spirit, KsE vocalist Jesse Leach, who is known for his thought-provoking lyrics, shared his Top 10 favourite lyrics of all time with The Talkhouse, choosing amongst them Bob Marley, Marvin Gaye, Bad Brains, and The Clash. KsE fans have a deep connection to the band’s lyrics and recently discussed it with Leach on Instagram.
