Don’t miss out on the music of Whitechapel! Click and enjoy one of the most successful band of the rock era!
10. Messiahbolical (This Is Exile, 2008)
“It has the best vocal from Phil and the music is just above all of what they do. The somatic defilement is their best album but messiahbolical is their best song.”
9. Murder Sermon (A New Era of Corruption, 2010)
“Phil and his crew incorporate melodic riffs with his trademark heavy vocals to great success. I still wouldn’t mind more mids and highs, but the varying vocal rhythms and atmospheres of the songs make up for it.”
8. Eternal Refuge (This Is Exile, 2008)
“Whenever I’m feeling down I always come back to this song, the raw energy these guys put out just lifts me up and makes me feel anything is possible”
7. Father of Lies (This Is Exile, 2008)
“These are fictional beings. Phil Bozeman has stated this. This Is Exile is a concept ablum about a being that fails, is exiled, and replaced. He comes back and kills his creator and the second being.”

6. The Darkest Day of Man (A New Era of Corruption, 2010)
“The Darkest Day of Man – “This song is about how easily people are fooled and how gullible they are. People will believe almost everything they’re told. Trust yourself and believe what is true in your heart. These are our darkest days and we are letting it happen. This also portrays a tyrant taking advantage of that.”
5. The Saw is the Law (Our Endless War, 2014)
“The riffs in this track seem really bland to me. They sound like basically every other mediocre core band these days. Lyrics are decent. Drums are probably alright, but I don’t really give much of a damn about them. Overall, nothing about this song is particularly impressive.”
4. Vicer Exciser (The Somatic Defilement, 2007)
“A short one. And also a good one. Their best in my opinion. It’s so damn aggressive, I can’t hear it a single time without starting to shout together with the grandmaster Bozeman. Also an awesome track for your daily workout, this song is a killer!”

3. This is Exile (This is Exile, 2008)
“Best Drums ever. The most brutalist vocal ever. Insane song. It is just awesome. it’s the first song that has gotten me to death metal”
2. I, Dementia (Whitechapel, 2012)
“An amazing song and one of the only few I like from this album. I think I just need to listen to it more, but this song is one of their best! The lyrics, the music, the pure heaviness. It’s an absolutely incredible song from their self-titled!”
1. Possession (This Is Exile, 2008)
“The vocals are great, and so are the drums and guitar. It is just an enjoyable song to listen to. Awesome break down also. If you aren’t a deathcore fan, you likely won’t like this band; however, many people that don’t like deathcore do still like this band, likely because they are different, and simply better. This song features anti-religious lyrics, fairly fast drumming, some fairly complex guitar work, and mini breakdowns. This is by no means a tech-death song, it has a completely different flow. I for one enjoy both, but many do not.”
