"Wait a second. So you just judged their music on the length of time a member has been in the band? Jason Newsted's been in Metallica longer than Cliff, so Metallica without Newsted sucks. Bruce Dickenson's been in Iron Maiden longer than Paul Di'Anno, so Maiden during Di'Anno sucks. John Bush has been in Anthrax longer than Joey Belladonna, so Anthrax without Bush sucks. I could go on and on with this."
No I'm not saying that at all. I'm just saying since Howard has been with KSE for all of these years it would just be strange without him. A lot of people would be disappointed to see Howard leave. I'm sure a lot of people felt the same way after Jesse left.

Okay okay, the way you worded it tripped me up a bit. I think that the band's best material was with Jesse. I also think that they were nowhere near their potential with him at the mic. I think with that lineup they could have changed metal forever. However, with Howard, I hear any other metalcore band. It's not solely his fault, the songwriting from the rest of the group has become lazy and uninspired. Howard has the singing voice of an angel, but his lyrics are like that of a 13 year old. Jesse makes the band, to me at least, sound like a beast, that also throws in some fantastic lyrics on top.

"Maybe to satisfy everyone have Jesse do screams have Howard do cleans and have Jesse write the songs"
Songs would get heavier, the mainstream appeal would dissappear, and it would sound awkward. You might as well just get Jesse to do it all...
I don't think he'd do it full time, but what I think they should do is do a full reunion tour with the lineup. Including Adam on drums. Then I will be happy, and never complain about Howard in KsE again.

"And don't have any support, and advertise that they would play nothing after AOJB"
I dunno about that, I'd like to see a few bands on the bill to warm up the crowd. Plus, I'd like to see Leach perform a song or two off of The End of Heartache, but it's not a necessity.

That's OK because you're allowed to disagree.
THROW A CHAIR OR SOMETHING
Much better, but not excellent. Some bad sound mixing by the venue there though.

That way they get real KSE fans and limit the queers that know one song or the shitty scene opening bands.

"Intelligent?"
No, try the opposite of that.

That's stupid, I'm obviously not black
He says he digs the music they make. I dunno if that means he doesn't like the lyrics, but his are much better
