Deftones, Acacia Strain Frontmen to Appear on New Whitechapel Album

by | Mar 31, 2010

Whitechapel’s third album, “A New Era of Corruption”, will feature guest vocal appearances from Vincent Bennett (The Acacia Strain) on the track “Murder Sermon” and Chino Moreno (Deftones) on the track “Reprogrammed to Hate”.

Guitarist Alex Wade comments: “Vincent has been a long time friend of the band and we have always talked about him doing guest vocals on one of our records, so naturally his style of vocals fits our music perfectly and sounds great. We’re honored to have Deftones vocalist Chino Moreno on our record. All of us are huge Deftones fans so it’s pretty surreal for us. He absolutely killed his part on the album and it’s everything I envisioned it would be. Plus it’s cool that Chino was so opened minded to do vocals on something so extreme; I think that it sounds fantastic.”

It’s hard to imagine that Deafheaven’s success all spawned off the release of their 2010 demo. Even frontman George Clarke and guitarist Kerry McCoy are among the disbelievers, especially since they recorded the four-track effort out of boredom. Since...
