WHITECHAPEL - Streams New Album, 'Mark of the Blade', via VansWarpedTour.com

In anticipation of the release of their sixth full-length, 'Mark of the Blade', WHITECHAPEL is now streaming their new album in full, before it hits stores on June 24th via Metal Blade Records. To hear 'Mark of the Blade' in its entirety, please visit VansWarpedTour.com: vanswarpedtour.com - where fans can also find additional exclusive content from WHITECHAPEL as part of the ongoing "90 Days to Warped" promotion, leading up to the band's appearance on Warped Tour this summer.

Reunited with producer Mark Lewis (The Black Dahlia Murder, Cannibal Corpse), WHITECHAPEL has redefined who they are and what they are capable of with 'Mark of the Blade'. Kicking off with "The Void" - which has a Slayer-esque ferocity that is perfectly suited to the band's three-guitar attack - the songs that follow all leave a distinct impression, and by the time the rich, dark melodies on "Decennium" bring the record to a close, it's impossible to deny the emotional weight brought to bear. Guitarist Alex Wade explains, "At this point in our career and as we grow older, we are taking a more open-minded approach to creating our music, allowing what we think sounds good to evolve naturally, rather than to just write what is expected of us."
