The ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER heralded, “’Too Bright to See, Too Loud to Hear’” showed why the group has moved far ahead of its metal peers. Armed with soaring instrumentals you’d expect from someone like Explosions in the Sky, combined with epic gang vocals and hand claps, Underoath makes clear that this is not a typical band. Not only does it know how to headbang but this is also a group of acute musicians, and that talent is what stood out the most”
-(Jonathan Bautts11/16/08).
This TV performance comes in the midst of the acclaimed group’s summer-long main stage slot on the Vans Warped Tour. The 2009 trek marks the group’s sixth outing on the annual punk rock festival and their fourth run as a headlining act on the tour (see the full list of tour dates, cities and venues below). In his live review of the recent Cleveland show, Michael Gallucci noted of sextet:
“Underoath closed Warped down, one of two acts with 8 p.m. slots as the other stages tore down. They continue to have one of the more impressive stage shows, highlighted by keyboardist Chris Dudley who head-banged nearly the entire time, while switching between the keys and a pair of drums located nearby. The Christian metalcore act turn up the sonic heat, with blistering breaks, slashing guitars and frontman Spencer Chamberlain’s howling vocals.”
