This Is Exile is the second studio album by the American deathcore band Whitechapel, released on July 8, 2008, through Metal Blade Records. It is widely considered a landmark release that helped define the modern deathcore sound.


Key Album Details
  • Genre: Deathcore / Death Metal.
  • Production: Produced by Jonny Fay and the band, with mixing and mastering by Zeuss.
  • Chart Performance: Debuted at #118 on the Billboard 200, selling 5,900 copies in its first week—a significant feat for an extreme metal band at the time.
  • Lineup: This was the first album to feature guitarist Zach Householder, completing the band's signature triple-guitar assault.


Thematic Shift and "Lore"
Lyrically, the album moved away from the Jack the Ripper themes of their debut (The Somatic Defilement) toward a broader, dark concept. According to vocalist Phil Bozeman, the album follows a fictional narrative about an evil entity's rise, corruption, and eventual downfall:

  • "Father of Lies": Introduces the entity and its initial corruption.
  • "This Is Exile": Describes the entity's punishment and banishment to a hellish state.
  • "Messiahbolical": The epic finale dealing with false prophets and the collapse of deceit.


Track List
The album consists of 11 tracks with a total runtime of approximately 43 minutes:
  1. Father of Lies
  2. This Is Exile (Title track and lead single)
  3. Possession
  4. To All That Are Dead
  5. Exalt (Featuring guest vocals by Guy Kozowyk of The Red Chord)
  6. Somatically Incorrect
  7. Death Becomes Him (Instrumental)
  8. Daemon (The Procreated)
  9. Eternal Refuge
  10. Of Legions (Instrumental)
  11. Messiahbolical

Legacy
The album's impact remains strong; it was included in Revolver's list of "15 Essential Deathcore Albums" and Alternative Press's "30 Deathcore Albums that Define the Genre". Metal Blade Records released a special 10th-anniversary vinyl re-issue in 2018 to commemorate its influence.
