by This is awesome. I was listening to Whitechapel‘s latest album, Our Endless War, just the other day. It wasn’t my first time with the album, which was released two weeks ago, but I did take note of the album’s title track and its powerful lyrics. Now I get the pleasure of seeing the new music video for the track.
For a live/performance video it’s pretty good since director Naughty Mantis actually captured the intensity Whitechapel puts into their shows. What’s really funny, however, is how just before they’re about to take the stage to deliver some blistering heavy metal, a band member remembers to take the van keys out of his pocket. Just normal everyday guys before unleashing chaos.
In other Whitechapel news, the band kicked off their North American tour tonight, May 14th, in St. Louis, Missouri, with Revocation and Rivers of Nihil supporting. Tomorrow night, the three bands head to Kansas City, Missouri, before meeting up with DevilDriver on May 17th for a co-headlining tour. Support on that tour will come from Revocation, Carnifex, Rivers of Nihil, and Fit for an Autopsy. See below for a complete list of dates.
