YouTuber/musician Jared Dines has teamed with Howard Jones of Light The Torch/ex-Killswitch Engage, etc. fame on several new tracks. Speaking via social media earlier this week, Dines said of the project:
Who remembers 'Howard Jones era' Killswitch Engage?!
Who wants to hear more music like that WITH THE MAN HIMSELF Howard Jones but also with …….. MYSELF?!..well shit, you might like these 7 songs we're sitting on then! ;)

Dines has also apparently been sitting on some tracks he worked on with Trivium frontman Matt Heafy, as he also tweeted:
Who's been waiting on @matthewkheafy and I to make original heavy fucking music together?!
WE DID!!!
..2 years ago!! (hopefully out soon)
Would you believe me if I said I'm already 2 songs deep into the 2nd ep with him?!

Given the timeline mentioned above, it would appear that some of the music came together during Trivium and Light The Torch‘s 2018 tour with Avatar. Dines also took part in that trek, guesting with Trivium frequently during that run before eventually filling in for Heafy, who left early to attend the birth of his children.
That’s also not the only project Dines and Heafy have up their sleeves, as Dines teased the following album offshoot from his annual ‘biggest shred collab’ songs:
Ya'll remember the biggest shred collab songs I do every year? Well, who wants a BIGGEST SHRED COLLAB ALBUM?!
..What's that?! It's already been finished for weeks?!
..It has people such as Stevie T, Angel Vivaldi, Matt Heafy, Cole Rolland, Berried Alive, Andy James, and more?!
