“The members of Underoath agree that from the moment Davison entered the fold, the band were reborn: Song ideas began to pour forth, standard two or three hour practices organically morphed into all-night affairs and in less than two weeks, they were sitting on a record that promised to be something really special. That record is Ø (Disambiguation), the follow-up to 2008’s Lost In The Sound Of Separation. Leaner, groovier and surprisingly focused in structure, the album ushers in a new era for the band.”
–Brendan Manley, ALTERNATIVE PRESS (feature, December 2010)
UNDERØATH–whose last four albums have sold more than 1.5 million copies–have announced they’ll launch a major U.S. headlining tour for 2011 starting January 20 and wrapping February 27. Having just released their fifth studio album Ø (DISAMBIGUATION) last week (Nov. 9), the FL-based sextet are currently in the midst of a fall tour of select cities with A Day To Remember, the Word Alive and Close Your Eyes until the end of the year. Joining UNDEROATH for the 2011 trek will be longtime friends Thursday. In honor of its 10th anniversary, Thursday will perform their Full Collapse album in its entirety on the trek, Animals As Leaders and A Skylit Drive will also be supporting the entire tour which will hit 34 cities in 6 weeks (see full dates below),
In video news, UNDEROATH’s striking clip for their first single “In Division” can now be seen at the group’s brand new website www.underoath777.com. The dream-like clip finds the band performing in a house that becomes engulfed with water, complimenting the powerful rock track. The video is airing on MTV2’s “Headbanger’s Ball” which the group hosted this past week.
