With each successive release, UNDEROATH reinvents the balance between chaos and harmony. Their compositions, conjured from creative tension, become iconoclastic anthems. Even when the band almost combusts, the crackling energy coalesces into something deeply resonant for millions.
Each time they have a chance to do something safe, UNDEROATH challenges themselves instead, with integrity and attitude. Their pair of gold albums and three Grammy nominations stand in stark defiance of the idea of commercial compromise. The UNDEROATH catalog weaponizes noise, aggression, and ambiance as skillfully as melody. The combination of heaviness and headiness found on “Define The Great Line” makes it the only record of its kind to debut at No. 2 on the Billboard 200.
The passion and power are as undeniable on tours with ALICE IN CHAINS or BRING ME THE HORIZON as they are in the sweatiest of intimate shows or their genre-redefining runs on Vans Warped Tour.
The heart of their sound, which delivers naked vulnerability with thrilling force and cinematic lushness, can be heard in generations of bands who’ve pursued their trail. But UNDEROATH refuses to sit still. Walking an artistic tightrope between immersive access and isolationist otherness, UNDEROATH owns the space between huge choruses and forward-thinking heaviness, both on record and onstage.
