Its best result is #22 on the SiriusXM Octane Big 'Uns Countdown Songs of 2013. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #22 hard rock song of 2013.
"In Due Time" put Jesse Leach back on a Killswitch Engage single for the first time since "The Element of One" in 2003, and it led the way for Disarm the Descent, the band's sixth studio album, in 2013. It's melodic metalcore written by all five: Leach sings lead, Adam Dutkiewicz and Joel Stroetzel play guitars, Mike D'Antonio plays bass and Justin Foley drums. Dutkiewicz also produced it, engineered with Jim Fogarty and sang backup, and Andy Sneap mixed.
The video, directed by Ian McFarland and Mike Pecci, simply shows the band playing it in the studio, an idea Leach said came from early Foo Fighters clips. The song earned a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance in 2014, and Loudwire counted it among the year's best metal songs, noting that fans rate its guitar solo with metalcore's finest.
