Forget Suicide Silence, Job For a Cowboy and all the other bands that don't want to be associated with the genre, and welcome the hailstorm fury and sepulchral darkness of Whitechapel instead. The group's debut album, This is Exile, is a combination of ripping blast beats, throat-shredding screams and seismic breakdowns that could crack open the floor of most any moshpit. Whitechapel's second video from the album, "Possession," was shot by Dave Brodsky, who also shot the firsts clip, "This is Exile," and is no stranger to making groups look mean.
"We shot it at the Palladium in Worcester, Massachusetts at one of our shows on our headlining tour in September, and we couldn't be happier with it," says guitarist Alex Wade. "The video features a live setting, filmed on location during the show, so it's very intense and fast-paced. We can't wait until the video makes its debut and all of our fans who were at the show can see themselves going off."
Wade's wish is out command. Click "more" to watch the clip, and catch it again on "Headbangers Ball," which runs Saturday from 2 a.m. to 3 a.m. on MTV2.
