How much longer can Whitechapel ignore the groundswell?

Seems that a serious movement (i.e. six people) is afoot to convince Whitechapel to record their new album, Our Endless War, using tube amps. The petitioner says that although the album "musically is great," the band has "fallen victim to the Fractal Axe-FX/Kemper generic, digital, boring sound."

You're a passionate person. You're passionate about guitar tones. You're passionate about Whitechapel. Sign the petition here. Or, you could just watch TV instead.

Dudes ears must be clogged with overly opinionated wax. Tube or digital you really can't tell the different nowadays. Might as well make a petition to re record the whole album using tape.

Can we petition for this f.aggot band to break up instead?

the generic, boring sound is not because of the amps, idiot

Fit for an Autopsy used tube amps on their latest album and it sounds great but not much different from any AxeFX tones. Doing this would just be a waste of time although it'd be cool i guess

This is the best tone they've ever had. Haha why would they change that? And like a petition would work for this? Haha you might as well start a kickstarter for them. Albums cost a ton.

Whitechapel sucks..... BUT....... They should re-record it through the shittiest tube amps they can find just to piss these idiots off.

anonymous 6/4/2014 6:46:39 PM

If they didn't tell anyone they recorded using the Axe FX, I bet no one would know.
