Disarm the Descent is the sixth studio album by American metalcore band Killswitch Engage. The album was released on April 2, 2013, under Roadrunner Records.[2] It is the band's first album with Jesse Leach on vocals since 2002's Alive or Just Breathing.[3] Killswitch Engage announced the return of Leach in January 2012, after vocalist Howard Jones parted ways with the group due to illness.[3] The album received generally positive reception from professional critics.

"In Due Time", the first single from the album, was nominated for "Best Metal Performance" at the 2014 Grammy Awards.[4]
