Christian music news: Underoath maps US club run


Latest christian music:

Florida metalheads Underoath [ tickets ] will spend the fall on a club tour of the US as they continue supporting last year's "Lost in the Sound of Separation."

The month-long outing, which kicks off Nov. 20 in Nashville, stops by 23 cities throughout the South and East through mid-December. Fellow hardcore acts August Burns Red and Emery will provide opening support. Details are shown below.

The Christian metal sextet--vocalist Spencer Chamberlain, drummer Aaron Gillespie, guitarist Timothy McTague, bassist Grant Brandell, keyboardist Christopher Dudley and guitarist James Smith-- has released six studio albums to date, the most recent one being "Lost in the Sound of Separation," which debuted at No. 8 on The Billboard 200 last summer.

"I'm always surprised when [our music sells], especially with the way kids just steal albums off the Internet now and no one really buys anything," Chamberlain explained in an interview with LiveDaily late last year. "I was really surprised in this day and age. I didn't expect it to do anything."

In 2006, Underoath was nominated for a Grammy opposite Big & Rich, The Killers, OK Go and Red Hot Chili Peppers for Best Short Form Music Video for the band's single "Writing on the Walls."
