1.5 very poor | Ossacip Olbap | March 31st 24 | as so many derpcore bands do wc start with a weird bdm infused derp and as usual it falls flatter than yo gfs chest

0.0 | Roben | September 17th 19 | This is an album I want to love a lot more than I do. The fact is though, the three guitars do nothing independent, the music is basic and the production is muddy. Vicer Exciser is great though

2.5 average | Jared Floryan | October 22nd 14 | For a debut album, The Somatic Defilement does whatever it can to win the dark hearts of some all while turning away the cynical nuclei. It can easily be argued that Whitechapel aren't doing anything new with the deathcore subgenre - as there are still some awkward breakdowns and cringeworthy lyrics centered around Jack the Ripper - but it's not too terrible, all things considered. Phil Bozeman's gutturals are menacing when they want to be and the songwriting for this album is pretty decent; this was about to be a borderline 3, actually.

0.0 | basedborys | March 30th 14 | Probably the pinnacle of a mostly stagnant genre. This stuff is great and Whitechapel is also fairly consistent in my opinion.

0.0 | carachangren | August 12th 13 | For saying that deathcore (rightfully) comes under so much fire, Whitechapel really put out a solid album with their debut. This is a hard-hitting album on which every member clearly has a lot of chops on their instruments, from the ridiculously low, guttural vocals of Phil Bozeman on the title track to the crunching riffs that bite you up the ass on Vicer Exciser. The lyrics to this are also rather interesting, dealing exclusively with teh Jack The Ripper killings and being dark and well written, a first for deathcore. This is a good album that I highly recommend.

4.0 excellent | promiseswept | February 3rd 11 | The epitome of brutal deathcore done right. Before Whitechapel got more experimental. This is just straight up evil. Vicer Exciser, The Somatic Defilement, and Devirgination Studies are the stand-outs.

3.5 great | GetTheFuckUp | November 14th 10 | The epitome of brutality right here. Everything from vocals to instrumentals to lyrics. The only problem with the album for me is that the lyrics are almost too brutal. They are disturbing and repulsive which is obviously the point but this isnt an album that most people will want to know the words to. Definately NOT a sing along.

0.0 | East Hastings | June 23rd 10 | Shitty lyrics about rape and cutting people up. Shitty breakdowns. Shitty vocals. Shitty production. What more could you ask for?

0.0 | | November 15th 08 | BRUTAL! for whitechapels first album i must say that this guys are talented musicians that can bring down any gig.
What i found what i liked about this album is the dark, evil sound of the guitars that i couldn't stop banging my head to haha! well i think these guys deserve lots of respect.
