Deathcore OGs Whitechapel have unveiled their first showing of new music since their hailed 2021 LP, Kin. The band's latest standalone single in "A Visceral Retch”, showcases all of the intensity and brutality that have become the hallmark of the band.
The crushing new track begins the next era for the band and precedes their upcoming, sold out run supporting Lorna Shore on a comprehensive North American tour. The run begins September 19th in Montreal, QC closes out October 30th in Wallingford, CT with additional support from Kublai Khan TX Ohio death metal prospects, Sanguisugabogg.
Speaking on the latest release and how the track signals the next phase for Whitechapel, Phil Bozeman shared how the song was an instant winner, ‘A Visceral Retch’ is a song that fans of The Somatic Defilement will latch onto immediately. It was one of the first songs we had in the chamber to work with. This song came to light thanks mostly to Zach Householder. He showed us and we all immediately said, ‘yup, that’s it.’ Zach is notorious for very dark and horror-like vibes so this album is right in his wheelhouse."
Bozeman further explained, "The song is disturbing. Imagine being put in a situation of survival by gluttonous, mammoth demons that give you a choice. Eat the demons’ waste, eat each other, or starve to death. The twist, you’re against the people you love the most. It’s a way to find the ones that are truly evil people to build and strengthen their cult. It also represents how horrible people can really be, when push comes to shove.”
Along with the start of the Lorna Shore tour, Whitechapel will head out in November, to join Thy Art Is Murder for a run of Latin America dates. Whitechapel will then head the Tennessee Takeover 2024, topping three shows touching Chattanooga, Nashville, and Knoxville this December. Support will be provided by Sanguisugabogg, Gates To Hell, and PeelingFlesh. A complete list of dates and cities can be found below. Get tickets - HERE
