If you've heard even just one or two Killswitch Engage songs, you'll probably be able to appreciate that Roderick Strong's theme "Next Level" is overwhelmingly influenced by their uniquely breakneck metalcore style.

But the theme is specifically indebted to the band's 2004 hit "The End of Heartache", stripping away their instantly recognisable vocals (obviously), but following the same scarcely-veiled rhythm and melody.

Strong himself presumably gave CFO$ the heads up here, given that his finisher is called End of Heartache, and we're left to assume he's a bit of a fan. A bit cheeky, no?
