Knoxville, TN sextet WHITECHAPEL are continuing their visual and aural assault on fans across the country this summer as on the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival. The band is touring in support of their recently released self-titled album, which is available at the shows and has been selling like crazy alongside the band's merchandise. The guys are taking part in meet and greets daily with their fans at the Rockstar Energy Drink signing tent and will continue to tear up stages across the country this summer.
The band's latest effort debuted at #47 on the Top 200 Chart, #10 on the Top Independent Albums Chart, #3 on the Hard Music Albums Chart (Current), #2 on the Hard Music Albums Chart (Core Stores) and #64 on the Top Digital Album Chart.
Whitechapel is one of the most well-received albums of the summer, with critical acclaim and high praise from some of the most respected music outlet including The New York Times, Alternative Press and Metal Hammer.
"They build unforgiving walls of riff, and unpleasant ones too. Pleasure's not the point, though. There is a militaristic certainty to Whitechapel's work, which activates the true thrills of masochism." New York Times
"The band's best album yet by a wide margin." 4/5, Alternative Press Magazine
"Bolder and smarter than previous efforts and with flashes of subtle invention peppering their trademark onslaught of fat, hellish grooves and adrenalized blasting, Whitechapel positions its creators as worthy heirs to Chaos AD-era Sepultura's cross pollinating throne, albeit with a massive, jarring does of 21st century death metal adding additional sonic bulk and braggadocio." Metal Hammer – 8/10
WHITECHAPEL's video for their song "I, Dementia" can be viewed HERE. The video was shot by David Brodsky of MyGoodEye as part of the Scion AV Project.
