The wait is over. Today sees the release of the highly anticipated NEW album from Knoxville, Tennessee's WHITECHAPEL. The band's self-titled fourth album has been met with critical acclaim and fans are clamoring to see the band perform the NEW material live.
Fans will have that chance this summer as WHITECHAPEL will be a part of this year's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival which is set to kick off June 30th in San Bernardino, CA. Following the festival run, WHITECHAPEL will hit the road supporting Hatebreed this September. A complete list of all dates including headlining shows can be found below.
The first single from Whitechapel entitled "Hate Creation" is available for streaming exclusively HERE.
Singer Phil Bozeman and guitarist Alex Wade offer their insight on the new album with a track-by-track breakdown exclusively hosted by AbsolutePunk HERE.
WHITECHAPEL filmed a series of videos during the recording process of the new album. The first video in the series provides an in depth look at the drum tracking process for the album. The second installment focuses on the recording of the guitar parts for the new album. The third video focuses on the vocal tracking process. All of the segments can be viewed HERE.
Having spent several years lauded as one of the frontrunners in their genre, in 2012 WHITECHAPEL stand as a defining force in contemporary heavy music. Building dramatically on the trademarked bludgeon of their first three releases, with Whitechapel the Tennessean sextet have inarguably delivered their most intense, dynamic, and downright hostile record to date. Drenched in atmospheric darkness, the record is also rife with gripping melodies that drag the listener in to the tumult, willing or otherwise, and across its ten tracks it is infused with an emotional depth that pointedly separates the band from the plethora of two-dimensional mosh-starters that have sprung up in their wake.
The album was engineered and mixed by Mark Lewis (Black Dahlia Murder, DevilDriver), who also handled production duties alongside the band. The album artwork was created by Aaron Marsh of Forefathers Group with art direction provided by WHITECHAPEL.
