Important bit to notice is that songs like this while describing extreme human emotions including terrifying loneliness, are helping listeners to deal with them by showing them that more people struggle with similar shit in life, and therefore makes listeners feel less lonely. Artists like Whitechapel are absolute humankind treasures that should be promoted everywhere so it can reach those isolated by suffering in our society. Thank you Whitechapel for putting this huge effort in to this niche of a genre, and exploring emotions others don't even try to touch.

Seems a lot of people in Hardcore and Metal ignore lyrics quite often. As very good example of this is “Viking” by Slaughter to Prevail. A lot of people assume it’s like a Viking raider song but I took it to be an anti-war anthem about Russia invading Ukraine.

You know what I like about Phil more than about the younger generation of extreme metal vocalists coming up right now? He isn't using his voice to show off any sounds or skills, he solely uses it for the sake of storytelling. He COULD show off, but he is embracing his mid range because the words are more understandable then. I respect that more than any sound or technique.

​@christiaandevries8906 The Pain Remains trilogy is a literal work of art. Read the lyrics, they are just as deep and meaningful as anything Phil has ever written for Whitechapel. Lorna has some beautiful sounding song's... they aren't just blast beats and breakdowns. They are putting deathcore in the public eye again because of some of the thing's they are doing. They went from playing tiny venues with Tom and CJ to now going on big tour's playing Amphitheaters with the likes of Gojira and Mastodon... as a DEATHCORE BAND, that isn't easy to do. Not every band has to throw cleans in the mix for them to convey the emotion they are trying to put across. Lorna does an amazing job with atmosphere and emotion without needing to soften their style. Albeit I will admit that some of their song's sound quite repetitive, especially with their stop start breakdowns (I actually think their breakdowns have become stale and are now the weakest part of their songwriting), but they definitely have some gems as well (like the Pain Remains trilogy, Welcome back o' sleeping dreamer, soulless existence).

Having visual representation of this song in this way makes me so happy. This video is so well done. That intro with the three of them playing acoustic guitars together was really cool. But then it gets even better with the duality in Phil's amazing vocal delivery between himself and the character and showing the power struggle as well. I had goosebumps at the end. Incredible effort by all.

Growing up with Whitechapel from the Somatic Defilement to Kin has been an incredible journey. Phil continually inspires me with his openness to push the boundaries of not only what it means to be human but also how to be vulnerable and deal with personal demons. This song and the imagery used to portray it are so identifiable and therapeutic. Through sharing our struggles, we strengthen one another. The Valley and Kin will forever remain two of my favorite albums. Thank you for everything!

I really love how the video actually helps explain the song. Many times bands' music videos make the meaning of the song more confusing. Such a great video ❤

INCREDIBLE !! Much love to Phil and everyone else who contributed to this production and album

I’m so happy to see how far Whitechapel and Phil have come. Started listening to them when I was just a kid when Somatic came out and the evolution is something to be in awe of. Please never stop Whitechapel!

I recently discovered this song and must say it already has topped the charts in my most played songs this year.

Man this is why I love Whitechapel. The anger and frustration in his scream and the peaceful, sorrow in his cleans that I can relate to. This song literally gives me chills and made me shed a few tears at 3:50.

This super natural episode is sick af

Honestly love this so much. I've been so enthralled with connecting Phil's beautiful narrative with these two albums and all the awesome videos like this one. I hope that the next album has something similar because I feel like this is so much more unique than normal albums. This music has just been such an incredible medium for this story from front to start.

Living with yourself and dealing with past trauma....this song means SO much to me. It's just a constant struggle inside my head on a daily basis.

the way he sings "I couldn't stand to lose you another time" comes from a very deep place which most of us will which never to relate to.. chills

Whitechapel never disappoints, such a good video. 🤘🏻

WOW this is not the Whitechapel I expected on my first listen of them. Impactful and powerful. Thank you so much Whitechapel

Always loved Phil’s voice ❤ never gets old

My absolute favourite of their tracks. I love this sound with the melodic side and clean vocals.

It's so much more when you are just knowing the previous video of "I will find you" and now it connects all together. It's just perfection. I f*cking love it.

this new whitechapel era is my favorite ! them cleanssss

This song is amazing. Can't wait for the next album. 9 STUDIO ALBUMS! I've been a fan since the beginning and I hope the next and probably last album will be both old school heavy and clean vocals for the true fans. Love you guys.

I never realized what this song was actually about until I got the context of this video. Wow! What a way to show how we battle our inner demons, if you decide you’ve had enough you can always change your life and move on. I love this video.

Best band in metal. Kin is a masterpiece. I can't wait to see what they are working on right now.

By far Whitechapel has evolved in sound and especially in Phil's vocal part, what an amazing beast. Remarkable video and the KIN album a gem from start to finish 🖤✨🤟🏻

These guys are always going to be the standard. This whole thing was great. Feel like this story applies to a lot of people

So many people didn't like Kin or The Valley, but to me, they are pure emotion and storytelling. I love Kin more than most WC fans simply to the evolution of the band and hearing Phil showcase his clean vocals and still have some extremely guttural vocals in the same songs. Can't wait for the next album!

Hole shit I'm 2:15 minutes in and to HAVE the actual conversation between Light and Dark Phil ON MY SCREEN and not just in a song...brought actual tears to my eyes, yall. This is so fucking incredible. I'm too emotional

that acoustic intro is on another level and these drums fills are vicious. a song with brilliant dynamics and fantastic visuals.

When he is talking to the creature in the woods, he looks like a lost little boy, who’s so desperate.. I wanna hug him so bad 😭 Such a Great Song and Video, I really love it ❤️‍🔥

Whitechapel got me though the tuff times thank God for Whitechapel

Art.

The visuals are great. I don't really listen to Whitchaple that much, but watching this I'm totally amazed! The song is awesome!!

This song was already so powerful and one of if not my favorite song on the album. The representation here is hands down one of the best for a song I think I've ever seen.

Damn. This song was already a very emotional one but seeing the visuals of Phil confronting the other version of himself really got me. It’s something I can relate to so well. An internal struggle

Such a powerful song and album , I’m absolutely blown away

Woah! Video adds so much more weight to this song. Absolute masterpiece. As if the music wasn’t good enough already.

Absolutely blown away by this song and video. Whitechapel can do no wrong, thank you

Nothing like a ballad to surrender true real feelings of rejection and pain on a level only a song can project......🤘❤️🎸

Wow! What a truly beautiful song to behold. The internal conflict in the lyrics portrayed by this amazing music video really encapsulates the feeling of emptiness and struggle. It is sooooooo nice to hear melody combined with malady.

Awesome song and video!! Got goosebumps.

Why does this song speak to me so much. "This isnt home, This IS hell with a Lovely face!"

I always had a thing for emotional records , this one is one of my favorites ,those mourning riffs ,the haunting vocals and the crisp production they all fit just right ,it wasn't meant to be an over the top record , it conveys its message just right and to me one of the besrlt releases of the genre

This song is outstanding! 🔥 Whitechapel is improving themselves always.

My boys be killing it since the start.

Their journey as a band and especially Phil’s as a vocalist is one of the best I’ve seen. Can’t wait for the next release

Amazing song

What a fucking masterpiece this entire album is. It invokes so many emotions and is untouchable. I love Phil's passion on this album, it's so fucking addicting. I can't wait for the next one.

I love “Kin” as an album so much. Easily one of the greatest albums ever made. Would love to see a video for Kin as a closure

Now that Phil has mastered the kamehameha wave, I expect a full return to deathcore

My favorite track(s) from Kin. Absolutely stunning to see how the visualization from the band lines up with how it plays out in my head every time I listen to it. Thank you to Whitechapel for this work. \m/ \m/

Stunning video. The concept, the production, the set, lighting, amazing. Goes without saying that this track is phenomenal. This band is at such a high level with their craft. 10/10.

Its so hard to accept when my father left when i was four i started to sit in my little room alone and trying to understand everything around me started to talking with my self same time. no one explained what is going on in that broken home i just saw anger and hate than i started to run out at nights and drinking with old alcholics. finally last year (34)i accept the other part of me. entire life i afraid him and what he can capable off to others i was weak he always tryed to be strong take care me. thanks to the this song after many years finaly one tear drop. Its so true there is no family or blood i have only Satan and fearless devil part of me. great song thank you so much

This is the one band right now that I have to go see live. I am absolutely obsessed with these amazing tunes!

Great song about internal struggle. Really love this song!

This is, again, another example of metal perfection!! Whitechapel never misses, every album since i started listening to them back in the MySpace days has been nothing but perfection.

Not sure what's more unexpected, the clean vocals or the Dragon Ball Z power battle

I don’t think I’ve listened to any other albums longer than I have The Valley and Kin. They are just so dang good. Love This Is Exile but I the two latest album are my favorite.

Was für ein geiles Stück!! Hammer Song!!

This is so beautiful. The lyrics are so heartfelt and the gutturals are glorious!
