Underoath - The Place After This One (March 28, 2025) Album • Page 9

As long as it doesn't end up like Code Orange's last album

 

the new stuff kinda makes me think theyve been listening to the newer silent planet and northlane stuff

 

PO's are live in the EU.

They'll probably drop shortly or sometime today..

 

all the links are down now. what a fucking mess

 

Fuuuuuuumble after fumble. I wonder if they are enjoying their label switch.

 

Looking forward to the next album cycle where they talk about how much they didn’t enjoy the process for this one and make vague references to how poorly it was handled.

 

i don't see how they can't just go independent from here on out and handle their own stuff. surely they've amassed a big enough network to do it but ik it's not THAT easy.

 

I talked to Tim the winter of 2022 and he had said they were going independent and were going to do EP's and do their own release structure.

My experiences with the members of this band and their management compared to what has been announced and promoted has changed my expectations like 10 different times between 2022 and now, haha.

 

I can't find the comment anymore but someone from their team posted on reddit in response to the next single's unlisted music video fiasco. They said the band had never suffered this many leaks at a label before and that they were bummed because it was getting in the way of their plans.

 

That is so defeating.

I wonder if that amount of unprofessionalism would allow them to break their contract with MNRK HEAVY. No idea what their current contract holds, but I would be PISSED if I were them.

 

Ah I finally figured it out, the chorus of Survivor’s Guilt sounds like modern day Atreyu.

 

Well that’s going to ruin the song for me lol

 

Looking at the MNRK Heavy roster and aside from maybe High On Fire - Underoath is their biggest artist for sure. You would think they’re being extra careful with this promotional roll out lol

 

You mean “biggest” in terms of purely newer bands right lol? They do have Judas Priest and a few other classic artists like that haha

 

the only other band i know of on MNRK Heavy is The Callous Daoboys - a band i don't really listen to (so Underoath is my only connection to the label)

 

That’s fair - they do have some other pretty big bands but most of the bigger ones are either older like Judas Priest or not really “scene” related. I will say Callous Daoboys and The Contortionist are both excellent.

 

Can you imagine if The Contortionist actually released new music

 

I think we, literally the people in this forum, are the single group of people that care about any “rollout” in 2025. Everything is “does the song get on a playlist or not” and that’s quite singularly the only thing that (unfortunately) matters these days. The mystery or fun of an album roll out for fans like the old days is deadso in this era of streaming.

 

Was that on the MNRK heavy roster? I definitely missed that haha

 

blink’s new album rollout in 2023 was full of mystery and excitement. It’s definitely possible.

 

It only really works with mega sized artists anymore, medium and small bands it's a thing of the past

 

And all the label cared about was that playlist / radio single and number one album. Virtually all the info was out there earlier though.

 

but wouldn’t the demand for leaking stuff be higher for mega size artists?

 

Yeah haha they have a few older artists like them and Zakk Wylde

 

I'm just talking about flashy long rollouts, not about leaks or anything
