Well new underOATH is screamo. But Cries Of Past and Act Of Depression are metal. Christian metal, The Changing Of Times is metalcore, they lost a lot of their christian-ness here but it's still there. and they don't even deserved to be called christian anymore with They're Only Chasing Safety, i heard they dedicate every song to Jesus Christ at shows but that's not enough to be considered christian rock, only song considered christian is Some Will Seek Forgiveness.

This is underOATH. Not this new stuff.

They should've changed their name when Dallas left, because its a disgrace to this great music IMO.

Good review btw

"i seriously doubt that, especially with the new singer. theyre too much like every other band nowdays. Maybe if they got dallas back they could do it. "

You apparently havent heard spencer actaully sing, Listen to some stuff from one of his old band This Run Through, he can definatly handle the task of singing/screaming like dallas used to if thats what underoaths intentions were.

These guys are amazing, I'd say this album definatley pulls away from the screamo/emo roots. Still you can tell it's them. And i love that they don't sell out, or change their beliefs.

Just one thing, What does EP stand for? I've always known what it really was, but i've never known what it stood for.This Message Edited On 07.06.06

EP = Extended Play, funny because they always have a short track listing.

Being a pretty big UnderOATH fan, this is how ive always seen it



Act Of Depression - Screamo

Cries Of The Past - Christian death metal/ mix of some screamo

The Changing Of Times - Screamo

Theyre Only Chasing Safety - A very radio friendly version of screamo

Define The Great Line - Metalcore?

abuse of the term screamo ftw?

This album is better than Act of Depression, but not by much. oh and fyi

Act of Depression-hardcore infused black metal
Cries of the Past-black metal
Changing of the times-lite metalcore/bordering on popcore
They're Only Chasing Safety-hardcore Hawthorne Heights
Define the Great Line-post hardcore/bordering on metalcore

i think it's worth noting that the keyboardist joined the band right before they made this record, and he himself says that he didn't really know how to play at the time; he just kinda picked it up as they went along.



awesome CD; ties with Changing of Times as my fav.



good review

the new stuff is a lot less cheesy and the songwriting is much more professional.

the changing of times is still their best album.
