"Hickory Creek" lyrics:
It’s so hard to let go
You can hear me but I’m invisible
But if you dig out your eyes, maybe pain will subside
The worst that could happen is you never see me again
But the worst is yet to come, my friend
This path I walk is comforting
But now I’m left to sing this song alone
I’m fading faster now
I left so long ago
You never noticed I was gone
Now that you don’t have eyes, maybe now you’ll realize
Within your own head, you’re creating these lies
For what it’s worth, you’re still beautiful
But beauty lies within the eyes
This path I walk is comforting
But now I’m left to sing this song alone
I’m fading faster now

From what I have read this is him letting go of his past and childhood trauma. I'm sure this has got to be cathartic for him!

[@Jackal_XXX]

This is him allowing himself to share his story, and his thoughts in a way only music could accomplish. It’s so surreal and suffocating, but in an addicting way. It’s almost a way that everyone can mourn with him, and he finally lets go.

[@Skraeling1000]

He lost his dad when he was 10 and his mom when he was 15. Like Chef Vortivask said, this is probably cathartic for him.

When this song first came out, it got me through a major depression and the lyrics really spoke to me when I was in a haze. I can clearly remember being heavily intoxicated and just yelling the words to the song in public walking down the street drinking my brains out trying not to commit suicide because I thought that life was pointless. 4 months later, Im sober and life is beautiful again and so is this song still. Whitechapel, if you're paying attention just know your music saved my life and I can now see things clearly again and I love myself. I hope this message gives someone else in their lowest times, hope to survive through whatever they got going on.

[@kyleboudreau6521]

Congrats man. I dealt with suicide and addictions. I recently decided (with persuasion of my fiancé) to get help. I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder and panic disorder. Phil has always had songs to get me through hard times. But having an addict father and an enabling mother, this song hit hard. I still can't listen to it without crying or looking back at how bad I just wanted to end it all. I'm proud of you man. Keep your head high. You've earned your soberity and happiness. ❤️

Real Metal fans who are true to form, will respect this growth from Whitechapel. This particular bands evolution perfectly portrays that of a man who has seen horror and struggled with dealing with that horror in real life. Phil Bozeman's story is real. The feelings are real. This music is real. Yes, we would all most likely prefer the old Whitechapel, but folks, this is what true musicianship is all about. Pay attention and you will see how this man, this band, and this music has grown and matured in the depths of struggle. Through hate, love and pain. Don't worry, I don't think Whitechapel will ever part with their roots but don't turn your back on them because of this change in their music. This has been a wonderful adventure following this band since day one and we couldn't ask for more. Thank you Phil, for sharing your story. Thank you Whitechapel for all you've done.

Open your heart.

[@ives3572]

The Valley is a reference to the part of Hardin Valley (west of Knoxville, Tennessee) where vocalist Phil Bozeman grew up. Set against this backdrop, he approaches his subject matter unflinchingly, building upon everything that came before, making it clear that he has survived that which he was forced to endure and is not afraid to confront it. “Phil has been upfront in his lyrics in the past about hardships he endured in his life as a child, and I believe with this record we tried to paint a better picture of that,” says guitarist Alex Wade, who alongside his bandmates, stands 100% behind everything their vocalist has to say. “I feel our music is Phil’s release from his past, being able to get it out and speak about it, and hopefully anyone who hears it that may have gone through similar experiences can find some release in it as well.”

NEW ERA OF WHITECHAPEL. BEAUTIFUL LYRICS. GOOD STORYLINE. AMAZING ARRANGEMENTS. THIS IS WHAT WE NEED!

I don’t give a fuck what anyone says, this is fucking AMAZING! Phil’s voice is unbelievably good! By far my favorite off the new album so far! Tells such a good story! Love love love it! Can’t wait for the rest of the album! 🤯😍🤤🤘🏻

Never have I watched a music video that could accurately and appropriately depict the childhood I had with my mom. 26 years old and this left me in tears. It’s not remotely fair or right how many kids are experiencing this exact scenario, right now.

@@stephant496 More like metal is trash now because of all the elitist trashlords who can't fathom variety in it. Imagine sounding the exact same for 20 years, that would most likely take your drive out of playing and lose a lot of fans. Music shouldn't stay stagnant, artist should strive to evolve.

It's that generic boyband sounding clean vocals that don't belong in any metal imo. The metal scene would benefit greatly from more mature sounding cleans like this.

[@TheLeefung]

That Song really hits hard, RIP Miss Bozeman

[@AustinBlandford316]

This song is a freaking masterpiece and it really does make me cry every single damn time. Both of my parents struggled so hard with drugs ever since I was born. My dad committed suicide soon after his birthday and I couldn't be there to hug him or say goodbye. I know I was the first to find that out, and my mom is back in prison for her recurring drug addictions. This song, combined with Bring Me Home, both hit REALLY close to home. No matter the length of time, wounds like seeing the ones you love suffer or losing someone you love will forever hurt. Because they leave scars behind. Cherish who and what you have, cuz you never know when you may lose what or who you love the most.

[@supersaiyandeathmetalgod]

Whitechapel should embrace some more prog. Just by getting the drummer from Entheos alone, I think their next album after this could be something really special.

[@4sbel885]

tbh if i listen to a song and enjoy it, that means i like the song. doesn’t matter what the genre is, if its good its good. also some of you need to realize that some bands just get tired of playing the same style over and over again and want to experiment with different genres and styles of music. just because a band with growls use clean vocals in their music doesn’t make them a pop band.
