Knoxville, TN-based deathcore veterans Whitechapel have officially brought their new track “A Visceral Retch” to the internet at large. The song got an early premiere on SiriusXM on September 11th before receiving its official premiere across leading digital service providers tonight. This single also features the talents of the band’s latest permanent recruit, former Enterprise Earth drummer Brandon Zackey, who was officially made a member of the outfit last month.
Vocalist Phil Bozeman had the following to say about this brand new single
“‘A Visceral Retch‘ is a song that fans of The Somatic Defilement will latch onto immediately. It was one of the first songs we had in the chamber to work with. This song came to light thanks mostly to [guitarist] Zach Householder. He showed us and we all immediately said, ‘yup, that’s it.’
Zach is notorious for very dark and horror-like vibes so this album is right in his wheelhouse. The song is disturbing. Imagine being put in a situation of survival by gluttonous, mammoth demons that give you a choice. Eat the demons’ waste, eat each other, or starve to death.
The twist, you’re against the people you love the most. It’s a way to find the ones that are truly evil people to build and strengthen their cult. It also represents how horrible people can really be, when push comes to shove.”
This song is a precursor to the group’s ninth studio album, which they first revealed that they were working on back in the summer of 2023.
