new interview with Revolver reveals more information on James leaving the band: https://www.revolvermag.com/feature...-album-marks-a-whole-new-chapter-of-the-band/

 

Great read, thanks for posting. Lots of new details behind lyrics and some clarity on James being asked to leave.

 

Was looking forward to it after their manager said on their subreddit the topic would be brought up in an upcoming interview. I remember him adding that we'd probably be disappointed due to it being much less dramatic than expected.

 

Chris casually dropping on reddit they once asked Kurt Ballou to produce DTGL... that would've been something!

 

Wow I’m surprised they addressed it. I’m wondering though if James has a different take. I remember his wife throwing shade at them

 

i remember him saying it came as a surprise to him and that his wife said he was ready to go three days before tour when he got word to sit off the tour (getting officially kicked out 3 weeks later). there's some sort of disconnect with them saying he wasn't showing up for rehearsals a week before tour and his wife saying he was ready to leave for a month.

 

Yea even with a relatively simple explanation, it sounds like there’s more animosity than you’d expect for a band that has already supposedly broken up once due to the stress of travel/being away from family. Weird way for things to shake out.

Forgot to post this interview with Chris Dudley which I came across a few weeks ago. Might not interest everyone as it's on a Christian website. However, I found bits insightful, particularly with him retaining his Christian beliefs and us often hearing from the Spencer/Aaron perspective both lyrically and in interviews.

Uncensored Honestly: Chris Dudley on His Faith Inside Underoath

Always love this kind of disclaimer on a Christian website:

You have been warned!

 

Very interesting read. As someone who has recently left ministry and the church, and is actively deconstructing, this was a very insightful interview.

Thanks for sharing!
