A New Era of Corruption wurde von Jason Suecof (The Black Dahlia Murder, Job For A Cowboy) produziert und featured Gastauftritte von Deftones Sänger Chino Moreno und Vincent von The Acacia Strain. Das Album zeigt eine Band, die unglaublich fokussiert ist und fest dazu entschlossen, die härteste, intensivste und dynamischste Musik überhaupt zu spielen.

"We didn't want to put out 'This Is Exile: Part Two', and this is definitely a real progression from that record - but, at the same time we wanted it to sound like Whitechapel... Having played with bands like Slayer and Cannibal Corpse, you realize that one of the reasons they've been around so long is because they've created a certain sound and they've stuck to that. Fans want to hear their favorite band sounding like their favorite band, and while we'll always grow, that's something I think we'll strive for on every record from now on.

The first two records are just riff after riff after riff, but this time we have more of a verse-chorus approach, and I think that makes the songs more memorable. Everything is still just as brutal and just as intense, it's just a little more structured, and that makes for better songs." And as the band has progressed sonically, so have Bozeman's lyrics, who this time has jettisoned a concept-based approach but remains just as focused, unleashing a surge of apocalyptic wrath as he covers issues such as the devolution of society into violent, hateful human beings ("Devolver"), the increasing corruption and violence of the post 9/11 world ("Breeding Violence"), and the circumstances surrounding the tragic death of his own mother ("Murder Sermon")."
