Belgian Metal Band Temptations for the Weak Recruits Metalcore Legend Jesse
Leach (Killswitch Engage) for New Single “Crossroads”
Heist-op-den-berg, November 11, 2025 – Belgian metal band Temptations for the Weak
will release their new single “Crossroads” on November 4. For this release, the band
has secured none other than Jesse Leach, frontman of the iconic Killswitch Engage, as
guest vocalist. “Crossroads” is the second single from their upcoming album “The
Venom Inside,” set for release in spring 2026.
Following the success of “Silver Lining,” Temptations for the Weak is once again pulling
out all the stops. The collaboration with Jesse Leach—a true pioneer in the metalcore
genre—is a dream come true for the band.
Both “Crossroads” and the full album were produced by Scott Atkins, renowned for his
work with Machine Head, Cradle of Filth, Sylosis, Behemoth, and others.
“Crossroads” addresses the timely theme of the mental struggles many people face in
silence. The track delivers a powerful blend of styles, heavy riffs, intense screams, and
catchy choruses. Jesse Leach’s unique voice elevates the song, making “Crossroads” a
strong contender for the festival anthem of 2026.
