In my opinion, this is peak Whitechapel. Absolutely outstanding album, Phill did an amazing job showcasing his clean vocals throughout the album. Instrumentally, its absolutely solid and packed full of emotion, i wish the album was just a tad longer. No complaints here, can't wait to see this stuff live!!

To each his own, but I don't see how this beats any of the first three albums (major label albums). End of Flesh, Messiahbolical, Father of Lies, Make it Bleed type stuff. But then again my fav bands are the red chord, TBDM, type stuff. Hopefully KIN grows on me!

Could not agree more. I miss the incredible highs but that’s a wonderful versatility Phil shows there.

[@MoSweiti666]

This album is in my opinion Whitechapel's greatest achievement. I've followed the band since the self-titled and listened to each of their albums many times, especially the Valley and A New Era of Corruption, but this and The Valley hit differently. Kin is a breathtaking, melancholic journey with so much diversity that keeps me moving. It's a rollercoaster of emotions and beauty. Within the darkness and melancholy in this record, there's that positive, shining light of hope, strength of will and passion. This is a genuine, unique experience. Whitechapel have evolved beyond the norms of the genre and created their own formula. This is the result of a decade of experimentation and progression. Congratulations on this achievement, Whitechapel and anyone involved in the creation of this masterpiece. 10/10 from me.

so funny story, the other day I went to a festival and there was a tent with band shirts that had a cool special offer called "mystery shirt" or smth like that. you could buy a black package for a discounted price and you get a random band shirt. I thought why not and got a whitechapel shirt that said "I'm alone, I'm miserable" on the side. I knew whitechapel from years ago because of phil bozeman who I always respected. but I haven't heard any of their recent stuff. so I looked up their latest album and now I'm here. and well I found a fucking masterpiece! I'm blown away. this record speaks to me on so many levels

[@Riftsight]

Been listening to this band for over 10 years now. And the evolution of their music feels like the most natural progression of almost any band. They're not forcing themselves to either maintain their old school sound nor does it feel like they're selling out with the clean singing. They were able to go with the flow as they've aged but also maintained sticking to their roots. Truly masterful artists as a band. 🤘🖤🤘

Then, as Spotify's algorithm does, more and more Whitechapel stuff started popping up, and I stopped "not liking" it and began tolerating it as it played. Enter "Kin"; this is really, really good (mostly). Although it's still not my preferred stuff, so much on this album is so good that I have to say that I'm a fan, and the more I listen to this album, the more I like it. Great job, guys!

[@mason3872]

I’ve heard old white chapel but I started with the valley, so I have a very unique look on this band. I think the reason people don’t like new whitechapel is because people don’t like new, they want their favorite band to make the same album over and over again, bring me the horizon is a great example of this. Everyone wants them to do another Count Your Blessings just like how everyone wants whitechapel to do This is Exile over and over again for the rest of their career. They want deathcore from white chapel so when people hear melodic metal with radio rock elements with the occasional deathcore part, they don’t like it, even if it’s really good.

This is not an album it's an experience. The Valley and Kin are Phil's personal journey and damn they're incredible

[@andrewichigo]

As a metal fan who doesn't really enjoy the -core subgenres, Whitechapel has always been a band I didn't quite care fore when listening to their music. This however is excellent material. I don't even know if it's pehaps because it diverts from what I associate as deathcore to be, or simply because it offers elements of things I like on top of the deathcore elements, but I am in love with this album. Definitely will end up in my top of the year.

Thank you for putting my thoughts into words! I never was a fan of the subgenre and tried listening to them before. It's only because Rudy played the drums on the album that I decided to give it a try and it was definitely a good decision. Cheers from France! 🍻

[@jaydenjbryant8665]

I ranked without you as the worst because it’s an interlude but I still love it

[@marcspade_pipes]

Been following some of these guys since circa 2004, before WhiteChapel. It's been a true pleasure not only to see them refine their craft but also to see some good dudes from East Tennessee thrive. Good job.

Thank you Phil. Thank you Whitechapel.

More melodic than last time yet heavier than ever! It appears that bands have caught onto the trend quite well. The elitists will probably dislike KIN but little do those idiots know that not only do progressive tunes gather new fans but the overall tone of a record is made heavier thanks to the diverse spectrum of highs and lows of progressive record, i.e. Such records are heavier by default thanks to the variety of melodies and riffage.

Whitechapel still my favorite in core metal world

[@Alex-oo5in]

I’m a bit late to this album, but it is incredible! The emotions, lyrics, and musicianship are top notch. I can’t get enough of this. Thank you for making this amazing work of art.

[@markwyman6753]

I Will Find You is a perfect album opener. Starts like Borknagar, then starts throwing elbows~

[@schecter7elite801]

Holy shit, the ones that made us, stank face all day. 🤟 Love it when they have nu metal riffs mixed with deathcore. Heavy as hell.

[@nerthsphere4392]

This album is phenomenal.

[@DeathMetalheadish]

I truly admire there guys’ progression. It takes guts to change one’s style and face accusations of selling out. They still produce worthwhile, well-crafted music, in my opinion.

[@Aannggllhsiwknd]

That's a masterpiece. Also, I can't even describe how much I identify with the lyrics of "I will find you" (and for sure I am not the only one). As a young man fighting with his old behaviours, trying to find the Sacred within. Big up Whitechapel, not often an "extreme" metal album is able of doing that to me, I'm gonna totally buy it and recurrently blast it from my speakers 💓🤘🏻

[@posteveryside-beatsnews]

I never heard Whitechapel before this livestream and had my mind absolutely blown when I heard this album wtf. Greatness

[@dallasbushmann6528]

Phil brought me to my knees with this album I've been a whitechapel fan as far as I can remember growing up alone I always could count on whitechapel so really I wasn't alone truly whitechapel is my all time favorite band ❤ keep up the hard work

[@mickey_-gd1gb]

What a masterpiece!

[@arininquotes8396]

I like the heavy stuff too, but man, Anticure is on another level. Absolute masterpiece. Still heavy, just different heavy.

[@dustinjones1120]

This is by far some of their best work yet !

[@norwardradtke1361]

Whitechapels' signature Fortin Blade overdrive pedal is so powerful and amazing, it's changed the sound of my 7 string with tosin abasi fluence signature pickups and 6505+ rig with ampeg cabinet (loaded with celestion G12T-75 speakers which the 1960a marshall cabinets were loaded with essentially a celestion Greenback on steroid) so much. I never run my rig without it now! I can hear it on these recordings! Skal

[@bvanquish777]

Love the song Anticure. 🤍

[@michaelmitchell3731]

In all sincerity this is the darkest time in my life and this album came at the right time. It’s literally the the only thing keeping me alive

[@jameslars4423]

Since 3 months this is my daily listening. Awesome album.

I'm officially obsessed with this album. That didn't take too long.

[@wendyguidos3083]

They changed alot threw the years i like it with the clean vocals
