Whitechapel Discuss Life on the Road as a Young Upcoming Band!
Ever since their inception in late 2006, Tennesse's Deathcore kids Whitechapel have been pushing their musical craft to a new level of confidence and power. Lead by vocalist Phil Bozeman, Whitechapel has three guitarists on board who exchange highly powerful technical guitar parts in order to match the groove of the speedy double bass drumming and skull popping bass parts.
They recently co-headlined the 2011 Summer Slaughter Tour with The Black Dahilia Murder, and proved why in just five years they are a force to be reckoned with in the Heavy Music world! We had the chance to interview screamer Phil Bozeman about the cycle of madness that the band has been part of since they got signed by Metal Blade Records in October of 2007, and how life on the road became second nature for them after playing a handful of International Music festivals in which they managed to gain plenty of fans! Here is the interview, which also features live video and images of the band destroying New York City's Irving Plaza!
