Deathcore staples Whitechapel have put up a music video for their track “Bedlam“. The Knoxville, TN-based group’s vocalist Phil Bozeman shared his thoughts on this latest “Hymns In Dissonance” track to be highlighted, offering:
“In the album ‘This Is Exile’, there was a character ‘Daemon’ [AKA Craig] who is the brother of the cult leader. This song is him admitting his jealousy towards him and defiling his rotting corpse. This is the point of view of him and his dead brother, who is eternally trapped in his own dead body and can still feel and hear everything but cannot move or escape.
Craig is basically slowly defiling his body because of his envy towards his older brother being the one who was chosen instead of him to be the seed of evil. ‘Bedlam’ is chaos, confusion, and turmoil which describes this scene.”
Director David Brodsky (Cattle Decapitation, Revocation) once again got the call from the band to helm the shoot for it, with the clip reveling in some gut-churning gore. In just under a week, Whitechapel will begin their 20th anniversary tour, bringing along Chelsea Grin, The Acacia Strain and Netherwalker. Those dates include:
