It's not that it sounds bad. Now, let's move on to the music. Some of these items ship sooner than the others. Fair enough, since they're probably the shining element of this album, but the end result feels a bit lacking due to the partial tuning-out of the drummer. Overall the guitar sound is generally insignificant.

Music goes like this. Mark of the Blade Audio CD. Retrieved July 18, Your Amazon Music account is currently associated with a different marketplace. Metal Blade Run Time:

The riffs are a lot slower, without going into non-stop breakdown territory. Imagine a mix between Meshuggah and newer Acacia Strain. Once again, there is little to no bass presence in the music. I really want to hear Gabe Crisp playing some time soon.

Phil Bozeman has almost completely abandoned his incomprehensible gurgles in favor of his mid-ranged grunting. This means you'll hear his lyrics much more often than before. However, this isn't much of a good thing, as his lyrics have hit an all-time low.

Some of them are just plain cringe. While Bennett contributes very little, Moreno provides an entire verse of his signature high pitched shriek, before performing a duet of sorts with Phil, where Phil performs a low growl that wouldn't have sounded out of place on "Somatic Defilement" to go along with Chino's screeching.

The drums are impressive, as usual. Blast beats aren't as common, with a lot more polyrhythms to go with the newfound Meshuggah influence. He still knows how to throw in a good old double bass frenzy when he needs to, and the drums are perhaps the best element of this album.

The first 5 tracks are the best ones. The band blow their load way too early, and the album takes a huge dip in quality after End of Flesh. You do NOT want to start your album off with the best songs all clumped together.

You want the LAST 5 to be the best, or, even more preferable, you want an even mix of the brilliant tracks and the not-so-brilliant tracks. Overall, it's a good album, but it's far from their best. I'd avoid this until you've listened to at least This Is Exile, which serves as a much better introduction to the band.

Recently, I decided to check out many deathcore bands a friend of mine recommended. Except for JFAC which were the worst, all the bands sounded like exact clones. So did this album. It's not that it sounds bad.

It's just that, well, it sounds too forced. Some of the songs stand out and manage to get stuck in your head like ''breeding violence'' or ''the darkest day of man'' the best song from the album.

All the instruments sound perfectly arranged, with audible vocals. The main problem is that the whole thing doesn't sound original at all. Some claim this is the new sound of metal today, but it actually sounds like watered down, ultra soft brutal death metal.

This is actually very ''br00tal'' or ''brewtl'' , perfect for your average scene guy who just got into metal last thursday. However, this sounds very bland and lacks something that makes me headbang or want to mosh, in the same vein as Slipknot or Korn, only with more breakdowns and even cleaner production.

What I can tell from what I've listened Whitechapel pretty much all their albums, being ''This is exile'' the most decent one is that they have always sounded generic and manufactured, and unfortunately with this release they made no exception.

C'mon people, metal is not just breakdowns or playing downtuned guitars. Music goes like this. Pretty much the whole album is made with chugging guitar riffs, half-assed guitar solos and computer sounding drums. Some songs manage to be very catchy.

Same with ''breeding violence'' and ''reprogrammed to hate'', which create a dark atmosphere, straight from the darkest corner of your local mall. It doesn't mean it's bad, it's just very teenager oriented.

Also it's very important to mention the bass is, as expected, unaudible. The deep sound is there, the low sounding guitar is doing its job, but it doesn't stand out, it's just there. Now for the lyrical contentm here's an example: How the fuck could anyone believe the truth When the religious fools have endless prophecies Bring it all down to an end I find it amusing when you think it all makes sense I have the solution Bring it all down to an end Maybe it's just me, but I find the use of curse words very childish, as it makes the music much less aggressive.

Might as well just apply the Slipknot formula of fucking-shit-motha-fucka. It's still entertaining and somehow tolerable, just like the bands I mentioned before. But after a while it gets really boring, since you heard the same thing thousands of times before.

Whitechapel are the creators of one of my favorite albums of all time, and as such I keep a close eye on them. I was very disappointed with their album This Is Exile, so I was hoping this album would be a return to roots.

I wasn't even close in my prediction, but on the other hand, I do enjoy this album As the latest trend seems to be, Whitechapel have come to the conclusion that deathcore is a dying genre, and as a result have created an album that is essentially a death metal album struggling to let go of the deathcore genre entirely, and only half-succeeding.

However, unlike Carnifex's and Job for a Cowboy's death metal transition albums, this one succeeds in that it not only eliminates most of the deathcore influence, but at the same time doesn't sound boring or confused in its direction or presentation.

The album's most prominent change from Whitechapel's older work is the new guitar direction. It is much heavier and grooving than the band's older guitar sound, and there is a lot more emphasis on the slower side of the guitars.

The majority of the guitar work is rhythmic chugging, which is just about the only thing that still serves to identify Whitechapel as a deathcore band. There aren't really any fast parts on the album; as I've said, there is a lot of chugging.

For the people who dislike deathcore, however, you'll be happy to know that there aren't any true breakdowns on the album at all. The album also incorporates many more melodic sections than Whitechapel's older works, and they dominate the songs "End of Flesh", "A Future Corrupt", and "Prayer of Mockery", as well as the chorus of "Devolver".

You'll also find guitar solos in a few of the songs, such as "Reprogrammed to Hate", but they feel generic and boring, feeling more like bad extensions of the melodic leads than solos.

The bass guitar is sometimes audible through the blasting of the three guitars, but not often. Phil Bozeman has improved his vocals from This Is Exile, which is no small feat, given he was the only member giving it his all on that album.

As he has stated in interviews, his main goal here was to use more diction to make his lyrics more interpretable, and it has definitely worked. You can understand a large majority of the words without looking in the lyrics book at all, and at the same time his voice is more guttural than it was on the previous album.

The vocal execution is also very forceful read: His highs, on the other hand, haven't improved much at all, if improved they truly have. They have a bit more emotion added to them, probably because of the added diction, but I still dislike the overall presentation of the vocals because I've always enjoyed Phil's emotionless screams in the past two albums.

And that leaves the drummer. An odd thing about Whitechapel's drummer on this album is that even though the guitars are chugging at a relatively slow speed, the drummer uses blast beats and variants almost constantly to give the music an illusion of speed.

Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn't, and it simply feels like the guitars and drums are completely out of tempo. The kit's sound itself is quite watered down by the guitars, which were probably intended to take front and center on this album.

Fair enough, since they're probably the shining element of this album, but the end result feels a bit lacking due to the partial tuning-out of the drummer. As with the last album, lyrics are a weak point on this album.

The actual vocal execution is great, yes - but the words Phil is saying are all repetitive rants on religion that just feel pretty stupid. It's almost like a sixth grader decided to be an atheist because all of his peers were, and then wrote some second-rate poetry about how much God sucked.

Now, mind you, I have no predispositional problem with lyrics dealing with any religion, but fuck, at least try to make them sound intelligent. The only reason you'd try to tell someone your opinion on religion through music is to sway their opinion, so don't make it appear that people who believe what you do are all morons.

This is a great improvement over This Is Exile - though that in itself isn't saying much - but at the same time, Whitechapel doesn't seem to have any plans to return to the stellar formula they created with The Somatic Defilement.

I doubt that Whitechapel will ever return to their former greatness going down this path, but that being said, this is a good album, especially for a death metal hybrid. Contrary to how my feelings on most of its primary progenitors' works might cast a gloom upon the deathcore genre as a whole, I'm not internally opposed to the idea.

The idea that breakdowns, youth mosh attitude and other key characteristics to hardcore or metalcore could be incorporated into death metal music is hardly a long shot. Death metal and its own parent genre thrash were loaded with such things already, just Deathcore seems a fairly natural successor to metalcore and its elder sibling, crossover, but the fact stands that so few artists within its confines have written anything even remotely compelling.

In fact, it's sadly telling that some of the best albums in this category like Job for a Cowboy's surprising album Genesis are merely those that bark as straight up the pure death metal tree as possible. Whitechapel are not an entirely talentless bunch of guys, but the stamp of quality evades them once again with their third album, and second through Metal Blade: A New Era of Corruption.

This is still the same chugging three guitar onslaught you heard on their prior releases, but the content itself seems to fall well between its predecessors in both quality and style, leaning towards the mosh slop of the debut with an added meat injection of math like, bouncing grooves ala Meshuggah or other djent acts.

The vocals are still pretty bleak, at best sounding like Vader or mid-period Morbid Angel, but usually just a palette of scrappy tough guy deathcore with snarls interchanged like a street youth approximation of a Deicide or Carcass.

The tones are rich and thick here like any modern extreme metal album, and no expense was spared, but the actual writing falls far behind the band's impetus to craft mere mosh anthems for disheveled youth who will forget all about it six months hence, and they don't temper them with what seems like any real steel whatsoever Take a track like "The Darkest Day of Man", which at its apex transforms into simplistic, thrash propulsion rhythms that reminisce to the groovier elements of Swedish melodic death aspirants err, clones like Black Dahlia Murder, but is otherwise a bunch of tightly wound, bouncing and slamming downtuned grooves that go nowhere musically.

It seems like the process on this album is to shift through a number of brickhouse dynamics without ever really pondering the riffs that could transform them into something terrifying or effective. A New Era of Corruption feels like going through all too many motions.

It's mechanical and precise, but if I didn't know any better I'd say it felt like the Tennessee band were bored with this. Whereas the predecessor had slight hints of inspiration, this is pretty much all blood and sweat channeled into meaty chug rhythms "Reprogrammed to Hate", "Prayer of Mockery", "Murder Sermon" that seem to survive only on how many kids start dancing to them.

There are riffs spotting this muted landscape, but they rarely catch the ear for more than a fleeting second, and are all too quickly evaporated into mindless slogging punishment. If you woke up this morning and decided you'd just like to do barrel rolls and lawnmower kicks down the main boulevard of your city neighborhood, then Whitechapel provides an ample soundtrack to your quick fits of violence.

But the memory of such a spree is guaranteed not to endure beyond the possible manslaughter charges. This might be the best produced of the band's albums, and the lyrics maintain the more hardcore, thoughtful essence of their sophomore rather than the perverse pleasures of the debut, and Phil Bozeman's vox might actually sound a little more gruff and brutalized, but none of these traits necessarily translates into quality music, and I'm yet again striving to find the appeal.

You can almost randomly select a modern brutal death metal record at large and find more appealing, interesting content, and certainly the 'core side of the equation, which here manifests through the prevalence of palm muted breakdowns, is truly void of the ideas that made for successful stylistic marriages in the past.

At first glance, Whitechapel appears to be just another typical Deathcore band. However, there is much to behold underneath the surface. These guys know exactly how to make technical, unique and heavy music, while also maintaining a very unique style of writing lyrics.

This opinion didn't come to me right away, though. I just saw them as, like I said before, just another Deathcore band with nothing to offer. However, when I picked up their sophomore album, This Is Exile, my opinion completely changed.

This album kicked my ass. I decided to give their first album another chance, and I came to the conclusion that it is just alright. Then I heard that they were releasing a new album and I figured that they have only gotten better with age, so this album should completely blow me away.

Needless to say, I wasn't "blown away" A New Era Of Corruption is just a step in the wrong direction for this band. From the first song, you can tell that they are breaking away from their "core" roots with the almost complete absence of noticeable breakdowns, which may be an improvement in the eyes or ears of some There is a much higher amount of groove and melody in this album.

There's nothing wrong with that, but it's overkill in this one. To me, it sounds like it comes from an inspiration from Cannibal Corpse. That's not what Whitechapel fans want. Among other things, Phil Bozeman's vocal style has almost completely done away with his high pitch screams in order to focus on a more gutteral sound.

Don't get me wrong, this kid is still fantastic, but it doesn't give you much to look forward to. Also, his writing style is just more of the same as it was in This Is Exile. Misanthropy and anti-religion galore. The only real exception is the song "Animus", the iTunes bonus track which is about the death of Phil's mother.

The guitars in this album are not impressive at all. They consist primarily of power chords, triplets, basic metalcore riffing with a down-tuned feel, and the occasional, unappealing solo. Like always, the bass in this album is almost inaudible, with the minor exception of a little bass solo in "Reprogrammed To Hate".

It's not all bad, though. In the first song, "Devolver", there is a catchy little guitar lick in the chorus that is pleasant. I am new to WC and started with their most recent, self titled offering. This came next for me and does not necessarily meet the technicality and methodic brutality of the self titled, but it rips.

Don't get me wrong, this kid is still fantastic, but it doesn't give you much to look forward to. Also, his writing style is just more of the same as it was in This Is Exile. Misanthropy and anti-religion galore. The only real exception is the song "Animus", the iTunes bonus track which is about the death of Phil's mother.

The guitars in this album are not impressive at all. They consist primarily of power chords, triplets, basic metalcore riffing with a down-tuned feel, and the occasional, unappealing solo.

Like always, the bass in this album is almost inaudible, with the minor exception of a little bass solo in "Reprogrammed To Hate". It's not all bad, though. In the first song, "Devolver", there is a catchy little guitar lick in the chorus that is pleasant.

Also, in "Murder Sermon", there is a little tremolo riff that you have to really listen for in the first verse that is, although not too impressive, noticeable. The lack of impressive drumming in this album is a huge disappointment.

Kevin Lane is an amazing drummer, but he sounds a bit drowned out in this album. In This Is Exile, he is so audible that he is almost the only thing that you listen to. Sure, there are plenty of impressive blast beats and triggered bass drums, but after the first five songs, you tend to look in the mirror and say "I really don't care anymore.

If you're looking for a good Deathcore album that will force orgasm after orgasm, pass on this one. Either pick up their sophomore album, or pick up the Upon A Burning Body album. I'd reccomend this for new fans, but not for long time fans.

If this really is a new era of corruption, count me out. I'll stick with the past. For Whitechapel, making an album that kicks ass doesn't seem to be that hard. Their first album, The Somatic Defilement, is still to this day one of the heaviest deathcore releases out there, and the second album, This is Exile, is one of the most influential deathcore albums out there we can hear this by the newer releases from bands like Impending Doom, Oceano, and And Hell Followed With.

Whitechapel have made a mark on the modern metal scene, and either you love the band's music, or you hate it. A New Era of Corruption is a prime example of this, as a lot of people hate it for certain reasons, and others love it for their own reasons.

Now, let's move on to the music. I guess people can stop hating Whitechapel for having no solos, considering there's one in about every other song of theirs, which, who cares about not having flaming finger-pickin' guitar solos in every fucking song?

If a song is good, it's good, and not having a guitar solo shouldn't change that. If you want guitar solos, look no more! I'm positive you can find guitar solos in the songs "Breeding Violence", "Reprogrammed to Hate", "A Future Corrupt", "Prayer of Mockery", "Necromechanical", and although there isn't a solo per-se in the song "Single File to Dehumanization" has some great guitarwork that has an almost soft, yet dark melody, before they crush you with one of the best breakdowns on the album.

While on the subject of guitars, I'll go ahead and mention that the band decided to experiment quite a few times with acoustic guitars, sometimes offering an almost spanish-style playing just past the half-way mark in "End of Flesh" , and then a soft, almost mesmerizing section beginning at around 2: Then a couple songs later you'll hear the acoustic being brought out for a short outtro to "Single File to Dehumanization", which also closes off the album.

Now, deathcore is known for its breakdowns, so don't pick up a deathcore album expecting a band to have a lot of solos and little to no breakdowns. If that's what you want, stick to death metal. Deathcore is also known for having terribly generic breakdowns, riffage, lyrics, and annoying vocals.

Fortunately, A New Era of Corruption only has generic riffage, which aren't even all that generic, but mostly unique and different from other deathcore bands, examples would be the chorus riff in "Devolver" and the riffs in "A Future Corrupt".

The dynamic of the album is perfect for whole-disc listening, with songs that stand out individually when mixed into a playlist, yet blend together when listened to consecutively. This isn't to say they all sound the same, but rather that there's really no filler between what could easily be an entire album of singles.

Was this review helpful to you? Audio CD Verified Purchase. It's dark and ultra heavy and brutal. I've been a fan for about 5 years. Ive seen them twice and own all of their albums now. I am new to WC and started with their most recent, self titled offering.

This came next for me and does not necessarily meet the technicality and methodic brutality of the self titled, but it rips. And a song with Chino?!?! If you love metal you'll love this album! A great Whitechapel record.

On September 13, , Phil Bozeman informally announced in YouTube vlog that the band was currently in the process of writing a new album entitled Mark of the Blade. The album was released on June 24, On August 9, , Ben Harclerode announced via Twitter that he had parted ways with the group, stating " Whitechapel is generally considered a deathcore band.

In an interview Bozeman has stated: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Archived from the original on June 19, Archived from the original on November 19, Retrieved April 9, Retrieved July 18, Retrieved 1 May When metal historians look back at the era of deathcore, one band that will undoubtedly stand out from the rest is Whitechapel.

American deathcore heavyweights Whitechapel have revealed the dates for its forthcoming headline tour of North America. Retrieved 18 December Retrieved 12 May After having heard Whitechapel's two first albums I wasn't entirely convinced about the band, as some of these elements made a regular presence on their earlier material.

The reason for which A New Era of Corruption is so good for deathcore terms at least is because the band is obviously avoiding the typical deathcore elements, or at least the most irritating ones, replacing them with more pleasant musical traits that still fit the deathcore moniker, if not completely, at least partially.

Instead of composing songs entirely made out of breakdowns, Whitechapel tried to play around with groove. There are even faster-paced sections that play a nod to melodic death metal, and guitar solos. The riffs are nice but they're a bit lukewarm at first if you think that these guys have three guitarists.

Occasionally the band drops the groove to jump in faster, somewhat more melodic sections such as in "Breeding Violence" around 0: There are also guitar solos all over the album, and typical deathcore breakdowns are nearly impossible to find, although metalcorish breakdowns are pretty frequent.

The bass is moody, like in the previous releases, making the sound here much darker than in any other deathcore release. The drumming is not exemplar nor exceptional, but it has indeed been finely played.

It varies from a more typical technical groove style to intense blastbeating in the faster sections, as if the drummer wasn't decided between groove thrash drumming and death metal drumming. From a mile of distance, this may be the best drumming I've ever heard in deathcore, and it is superior to most metalcore bands.

The vocals are quite decent. Phil Bozeman manages to sound like an actual death metal vocalist very rare in deathcore and not like a melodic metalcore vocalist like on most deathcore bands. The pearl of his performance is probably the song "Reprogrammed to Hate", arguably the heaviest song of the entire album, where Bozeman showcases a level of aggression never seen before in deathcore, fitting very well the song itself.

However, there are also the weaker points such as in "Necromechanical" where Bozeman decides to growl "I am a machine! Overall, it can be said that this is one of the few good albums of a mediocre era. This album is recommended to open minded people who may be interested in a deathcore album that doesn't come as an insult to the two genres implied in the term.

Not recommended for diehard deathcore kids who are in desire for br00tal breakd0wns and diehard death metal fans who may be displeased by the band's general focus on groove over speed. If you're somewhere in the middle, it won't hurt to give it a listen.

And now to album number 3. Whitechapel seem to have finally found the sound they're comfortable with. While the brutal deathcore traces are still there, the band also seem to be taking on a lot of influence from bands like Meshuggah, including bringing in 8 string guitars.

They seem to be trying to escape the deathcore label they've had since the start of their career, and they're doing a damn good job of it. This is their furthest album from deathcore. The record isn't stuffed with as many breakdowns, and Phil Bozeman has even stopped dropping "fuck", "shit" and "piss" whenever the band start to play one.

The riffs aren't those melodic ish mid-paced deathcore riffs from before. They're much more groovy and technical. The riffs are a lot slower, without going into non-stop breakdown territory.

Imagine a mix between Meshuggah and newer Acacia Strain. Once again, there is little to no bass presence in the music. I really want to hear Gabe Crisp playing some time soon. Phil Bozeman has almost completely abandoned his incomprehensible gurgles in favor of his mid-ranged grunting.

This means you'll hear his lyrics much more often than before. However, this isn't much of a good thing, as his lyrics have hit an all-time low. Some of them are just plain cringe. While Bennett contributes very little, Moreno provides an entire verse of his signature high pitched shriek, before performing a duet of sorts with Phil, where Phil performs a low growl that wouldn't have sounded out of place on "Somatic Defilement" to go along with Chino's screeching.

The drums are impressive, as usual. Blast beats aren't as common, with a lot more polyrhythms to go with the newfound Meshuggah influence. He still knows how to throw in a good old double bass frenzy when he needs to, and the drums are perhaps the best element of this album.

The first 5 tracks are the best ones. The band blow their load way too early, and the album takes a huge dip in quality after End of Flesh. You do NOT want to start your album off with the best songs all clumped together.

You want the LAST 5 to be the best, or, even more preferable, you want an even mix of the brilliant tracks and the not-so-brilliant tracks. Overall, it's a good album, but it's far from their best. I'd avoid this until you've listened to at least This Is Exile, which serves as a much better introduction to the band.

Recently, I decided to check out many deathcore bands a friend of mine recommended. Except for JFAC which were the worst, all the bands sounded like exact clones. So did this album. It's not that it sounds bad.

It's just that, well, it sounds too forced. Some of the songs stand out and manage to get stuck in your head like ''breeding violence'' or ''the darkest day of man'' the best song from the album. All the instruments sound perfectly arranged, with audible vocals.

The main problem is that the whole thing doesn't sound original at all. Some claim this is the new sound of metal today, but it actually sounds like watered down, ultra soft brutal death metal. This is actually very ''br00tal'' or ''brewtl'' , perfect for your average scene guy who just got into metal last thursday.

However, this sounds very bland and lacks something that makes me headbang or want to mosh, in the same vein as Slipknot or Korn, only with more breakdowns and even cleaner production. What I can tell from what I've listened Whitechapel pretty much all their albums, being ''This is exile'' the most decent one is that they have always sounded generic and manufactured, and unfortunately with this release they made no exception.

C'mon people, metal is not just breakdowns or playing downtuned guitars. Music goes like this. Pretty much the whole album is made with chugging guitar riffs, half-assed guitar solos and computer sounding drums. Some songs manage to be very catchy.

Same with ''breeding violence'' and ''reprogrammed to hate'', which create a dark atmosphere, straight from the darkest corner of your local mall. It doesn't mean it's bad, it's just very teenager oriented. Also it's very important to mention the bass is, as expected, unaudible.

The deep sound is there, the low sounding guitar is doing its job, but it doesn't stand out, it's just there. Now for the lyrical contentm here's an example: How the fuck could anyone believe the truth When the religious fools have endless prophecies Bring it all down to an end I find it amusing when you think it all makes sense I have the solution Bring it all down to an end Maybe it's just me, but I find the use of curse words very childish, as it makes the music much less aggressive.

Might as well just apply the Slipknot formula of fucking-shit-motha-fucka. It's still entertaining and somehow tolerable, just like the bands I mentioned before. But after a while it gets really boring, since you heard the same thing thousands of times before.

Whitechapel are the creators of one of my favorite albums of all time, and as such I keep a close eye on them. I was very disappointed with their album This Is Exile, so I was hoping this album would be a return to roots.

I wasn't even close in my prediction, but on the other hand, I do enjoy this album As the latest trend seems to be, Whitechapel have come to the conclusion that deathcore is a dying genre, and as a result have created an album that is essentially a death metal album struggling to let go of the deathcore genre entirely, and only half-succeeding.

However, unlike Carnifex's and Job for a Cowboy's death metal transition albums, this one succeeds in that it not only eliminates most of the deathcore influence, but at the same time doesn't sound boring or confused in its direction or presentation.

The album's most prominent change from Whitechapel's older work is the new guitar direction. It is much heavier and grooving than the band's older guitar sound, and there is a lot more emphasis on the slower side of the guitars.

The majority of the guitar work is rhythmic chugging, which is just about the only thing that still serves to identify Whitechapel as a deathcore band. There aren't really any fast parts on the album; as I've said, there is a lot of chugging.

For the people who dislike deathcore, however, you'll be happy to know that there aren't any true breakdowns on the album at all. To enable Prime Music, you must have JavaScript turned on in your browser.

The idea that breakdowns, youth mosh attitude and other key characteristics to hardcore or metalcore could be incorporated into death metal music is hardly a long shot.
