Singer Phil Bozeman and lead guitarist Ben Savage formed the
deathcore band Whitechapel in 2006. Although based in Knoxville, Tennessee, they named their
band after the section of London, England, where the infamous Whitechapel
murders in the late 1880s were allegedly
committed by Jack the Ripper. The band is filled out by guitarists Alex Wade and
Zach Householder, bassist Gabe Crisp, and drummer Ben Harclerode. The band's fifth album, The Endless War, was released on April 29, 2014.
Opening for Devildriver tonight at Stage 48, Whitechapel's set list leaned heavily on the band's current album and the previous album, 2012's self-titled album. Whiteshapel banged hard with growls and breakdowns, but failed to meet the promise of what three guitarists could bring to a band. The performance centered on Bozeman's stage dynamics and vocal arrangements, but why have three guitarists if there are hardly any extended solos?
