Underoath Announce US, Latin American Dates

Underoath have returned to the US for a 34-city fall headlining trek which kicked off October 15 in Lake Buena Vista, FL. Their new trek takes the band to 34 cities across the country including stops at New York City’s Terminal 5 (3,000 capacity) on Sunday, October 26 and Irvine, CA’s Bren Events Center (5,000 capacity, just outside Los Angeles) on Saturday, November 15.

After wrapping a hugely successful sold-out shows in eight countries around the globe--US, UK, Mexico, Canada, Italy, Germany, South Africa and Australia--Underoath continue to garner new fans and widespread critical acclaim for their new album Lost In The Sound Of Separation as well as their powerful live performances. In his four-out-of-five star CD review in Kerrang! (national, U.K. music weekly), writer Dan Slessor hailed:

“Whether it’s the convulsive frenzy of ‘Breathing in A New Mentality,’ the steamrolling ‘Emergency Broadcast: The End Is Near’ which shifts effortlessly between sludgy bludgeon and ethereal desperation, or the violent pseudo-anthem ‘Desperate Times, Desperate Measures,’ the record comes across as an exercise in barely controlled--and deeply seductive--chaos. Yet in a further demonstration of their emotive power, the record concludes with back-to-back tracks steeped in tragic solemnity--‘Too Bright To See, To Loud To Hear’ and ‘Desolate Earth: The End Is Here’--and it’s hard to shake off the melancholy hangover that lingers long after the speaks have fallen quiet.“

Underoath--whose last three albums count combined sales in excess of one million copies--recently released their fourth album Lost In The Sound Of Separation on Seattle indie Tooth & Nail/Solid State. The disc marked the top rock debut for the week and entered the Billboard Top 200 Album chart at #8, #1 on the Top Christian albums chart and #5 on the Top Digital albums chart, with over 9,476 digital downloads its first week.

Produced by Underoath--lead vocalist Spencer Chamberlain, guitarist Tim McTague, bassist Grant Brandell, drummer Aaron Gillespie, keyboardist Christopher Dudley and guitarist James Smith--Adam Dutkiewicz and Matt Goldman and mixed by veteran David Bendeth Lost In The Sound Of Separation is epic and intimate, brutal and beautiful, catapulting the group far beyond their previous works. Underoath have built one of the biggest metalcore followings in the world, and with Lost In The Sound Of Separation--a diverse musical display coupled with the input of six opinionated souls--the sky’s the limit for Underoath.

Lost In The Sound Of Separation has been released in over 17 countries around the world including: US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Austria, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, South Africa, Switzerland, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and now in South America. In December, the band will embark on their first-ever tour of South America, hitting Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Columbia.

Underoath’s first single “Desperate Times, Desperate Measures” is impacting Modern Rock and Active Rock radio. The video for the song can be seen on MTV and Fuse. Check out the stop animation video--directed by Walter Robot (Modest Mouse “Missed the Boat”).
