Underoath - Erase Me (April 6, 2018) Album • Page 60

you sure it isn't complete utter trash though???

 

Only for the people that shit out their opinion as truth.

 

Have to listen a couple more times to decide if it’s “unlistenable” or not ;)

 

"Unlistenable" is my favorite description of a song, because you have to listen to it to know that.... and, well... you get it

 

“After 5-6 listens I have deemed this trash unlistenable”

 

The band that wrote Disambiguation also wrote this what the fuck.

 

"Christianity Ruined My Life": Underoath's Spencer Chamberlain Talks Moving On From The Past

Awesome interview with Spencer, gives a lot of insight into the creation of the album.

 

“I just made one rule while we made this record which was: “That’s not Underoath enough” could not be said anymore. We threw away so many good ideas and made so many mistakes in the past because we were overthinking what Underoath actually was. When that happens, you just don’t grow. You affect your whole growth as an artist, as a band and as a human being when you create so many rules on what a band actually is. You shouldn’t set so many guidelines on what you should or shouldn’t say, especially now with social media where every fucking thing you do or say, someone is going to have to say something about it. Now that we’ve moved away from being so restricted from so many guidelines, we’ve become happier and healthier people and learnt how to be just normal human beings. As a result we’ve learnt to accept ourselves and each other within the band.”

 

This is exactly why I see this song as every bit as progressive as the last album.

 

“My journey and my role in playing in a Christian band, I held a huge burden and I got burnt really bad and was treated awfully. I’m not saying religion is wrong for everyone, but for me it was wrong. It ruined my life, turned me into a drug addict and people were awful to me the whole time. I never felt more alone in my life than when I was Christian. So if that’s my burden and I got to show people something positive and be burnt by it and then have to not do it anymore, that’s fine. In no way am I waving the flag saying “Fuck Christianity”, I’m trying to love everybody whether they be Atheist, Christian, Muslim, etc. I don’t care if you’re gay, straight or trans, I just don’t care at all, just as long as you’re a good person. I just love good people and I don’t care what you believe in. That’s why I really wanted to get rid of the title of being a ‘Christian Band’ because that’s such a stupid category to put yourself in.”

Damn, this is a really honest interview. Love it.

 

Oh, this is really really bad :(

 

Not a huge fan of the song after one listen, but it's nothing to get angry over

 

Cheers for this. Very honest interview.

 

I didn’t really like On My Teeth either but at least it kinda softened this blow. There are just no redeeming qualities to this song imo, it sounds like the literal definition of songwriting on autopilot

 

song so bad i better song rider than this so i know bad when i see it, i mean heer it. i wish it was 2006 again so i could listen to the same stuff

 

Is this what getting owned feels like??

 

Some of y'all get so bent out of shape that people dislike stuff

 

uh

 

@sleepy ???

 

Not my favorite song from them but I still dig it. Sad to see TOCS hate because it's my favorite Underoath record but it was also my first so nostalgia may be clouding my judgement haha

 

As stated earlier in the thread, I never got into these guys until I heard On My Teeth. For the last few weeks I've been jamming really nothing but TOCS, DTGL, LITSOS and Disambiguation and really like them all. I don't see these two new songs as regressing or really too different from their other stuff. I think maybe expectations and nostalgia might be playing into these takes a little bit.
