Whitechapel Put the “Core” in Deathcore with “Our Endless War”

The evolution of Whitechapel continues: what may be most striking about the title track from their new album, Our Endless War, isn’t just that it’s barely a deathcore song — it’s that it’s basically a straight-up hardcore song. Only the middle of the song, with its big, fat helpings of groove, really feels like the Whitechapel we know. And, hey, playing up their hardcore influence is certainly appropriate, given the song’s political subject matter. But a far cry from the band that made This is Exile, isn’t it?
