Definitely some crazy talent. Underoath and From Autumn to Ashes having drummers that sing and scream, set such a high bar for musicianship during my formative high school years.
@@RudolfHorvath yeah ik my guy, they're one of my favorite bands. Doesn't take away from how insane Hate5six's Code Orange 2019 is. Jamie became just a vocalist so he could put on a better show as a frontman. Underoath has Spencer fronting the band so Aaron doesn't have that pressure.
One thing to note is that Spencer does a lot more clean vocals especially in the later albums, including all of them on the album Disambiguation when Aaron left the band for a while. The last couple albums they’ve played a lot with mixing both of their clean vocals which has been fun. I think Tim (the guitarist) also does some vocals sometimes, but that may just be for layering during live sets.
Also Tim Mctague, the lead guitarist, does those REAL high notes you hear in the back of this song! he's not usually on vocals but this is the one song where he's actually a key player vocally!
“ I REMEMBER YOUR PRESENCEEEEE” always gives me the waterworks. me and an old buddy shared a deep love for this song together and he died almost two years ago. always think about him when i hear it!
Didn't expect to see some classic 00s post-hardcore getting dissected on here. One of my favourite bands of all time and I appreciated hearing your thoughts. The call and response vocals between Aaron and Spencer were always a great selling point alongside the band's tendency to eschew traditional song structures. Lots of bands have multiple vocalists, but that level of interaction between them is much less typical. The whole album this track is from is stellar, but You're Ever So Inviting is another stand out.
Well freaking said. I've long since moved on from Underoath after Disambiguation, but they remain the band that I have the most emotional attachment to. Kinda funny to see him checking them out, as I'm more used to him analyzing Animals As Leaders etc hahah but I love it
Define the Great Line, will forever be one of the absolute best written and produced records of this genres era. Toss on a studio pair of headphones and let this record play top to bottom. Absolutely breathtaking!!!
I love how you mentioned how much the bass carries the track, something I noticed when I picked up the bass and learned a couple Underoath songs myself. The rest of the band; guitars, drums and vocalists are going absolutely ballistic as the bass plays a simple melancholic descending melody holding it all together. I can play it for hours and I've heard the band really enjoys playing it as well.
Everything about Underoath is amazing. Their keyboardist always gets overlook and he is the most energetic one on stage. This is the best song to discover them on. It really does cover every aspect of their sound. The albums Define the Great Line and Lost in the Sound of Separation are masterpieces.
@@_ATMBMB_ had the pleasure of running into him at an asking alexandria concert. i was a keyboardist in a local band opening for them, and ran into him in the parking lot. underoath were my musical heroes and i was beyond stoked to meet him. he was such a down to earth, awesome human being.
Sometimes the "soundtrack of your life" bands aren't artists you listened to, but artists EVERY ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS listened to. This is mega '05 - '08 nostalgia for me.
saosin, anthony green as the vocalist, the first release. it's an ep. fun fact, the guy who recorded drums for them on the EP was a drum tech for slayer and that's why the drums are SOOOOO metal (and sick)
The second half of this song makes me cry every damn time. As soon as Spencer says "I remember... your presence" I just break down. I have no idea why.
When the sun sleeps? Is that the right name of an old underoath song with the funky intro? Was the first one in my circle to find that song, on limewire or bearshare or something, was so damn hooked. Haven't thought about that in a time.
Holy shit you are doing Underoath!!! Yes!!! Anything from Define The Great Line or Lost In The Sound Of Separation would be KILLER!!!!!! Thanks for this GEEBZ!!!
I think people often overlook how detailed Underoath’s songwriting in this era was, and you captured it perfectly. Lots of creative work with dynamics, rhythm and song structure Converge or At the Drive-In are some more great examples of metalcore/post-hardcore. You’re the man, Geebz
Underoath got me through a lot of tough times after my dad died when I was a young teen. They’ll always hold a special place in my heart. Technically speaking, Underoath were trailblazers for moving the post hardcore scene into mainstream appeal and they have continually evolved their sound over the years. Too many good songs for me to recommend just one lol but I would recommend something from their newest album to see how much they have evolved since “Define the Great Line”. Edit: forgot to add my ubiquitous request for Circa Survive! Anything from “Descensus” would be a great entry point.
That chord progression in the quieter section near the end defines this whole album for me. It comes back on the last track called "To Whom it May Concern" which is one of my favorite Underoath tracks.
Matt Goldman and Adam D did an incredible job engineering this album. Goldman really captured a great drum sound. And CLA absolutely nailed the mix on the record.
This band never wrote for radio. Their genre was never radio friendly. So your comment about non conventional arrangement and composition, thats what they did better than anyone else. In fact. Either this album or the next has exactly one song with a chorus. One. Lol reallllly hope you dig into more of them man. We would love to get you up to speed! They were big in 2005-2010 and then popped back up in 2013 and have released another new album this past weekend. For the next reaction to them, pick ANYTHING off of Define The Great Line or Lost In The Sound Of Separation and youll be blown away. Almost like the metalcore version of tool in a small small sense. Thanks Geebz!!!
Trying to figure out what song had a chorus on Define The Great Line and then "Under my desk this can't be it" hit my cerebral cortex like a ton of bricks. That song absolutely slaps dude. Especially when they do a breakdown and key change for like the third chorus. Probably my favorite by them.
@@samvakarian Their exchange is what made the band. Spencer is great, Aaron is great, but together...man. Chef's kiss. And not for nothing, but Spencer developed one of the best, most diverse voices in this genre over time. Somewhat on Define the Great Line, but fully by Lost in the Sound of Separation, dude's able to scream with as much inflection and emotive pitch as a normal singing voice.
Underoath continue to be unlike any other band out there, even on their new album "Voyeurist" that recently dropped a few days ago. These dudes do it different.
One of the best live bands I have ever seen. Back in like 2004-5 they played so free live. They made the music so much more insane in a live show. Amazing musicians
This song totally rips! The album this song is on (Define the Great Line) is a total masterpiece of post hardcore. Aaron Gillespie is one of the best drummers in the style of you ask me. Glad you noticed how sick he is. I’d love to see you react to more post hardcore stuff! Request: January 1979 by mewithoutYou.
Sick reaction. They do have a dedicated keys/synth player in the band so those production bits are him. I think sometimes artists write entire completed songs and in the studio the production sort of bloats with a lot of additional afterthought electronic stuff that wasn't really part of the writing process. With him being in the band, it definitely introduces his part at the writing process and allows them to more thoroughly flesh them out and make them an important and deliberate component.
This is probably the best song you could have started with for this band. It's the lead single from their best-selling album, and is really at the center of their work between the light and heavy. The more I hear this song the more I'm realizing just how much they packed into those four minutes, and this is after fifteen years of hearing it. I hope you also get to hear some of their older and newer stuff because they've been all over the map when it comes to genres.
I fucking love Aaron Gillespie. Im not religious but the dude kind of saved my life and started me on a career in music(as a drummer). He's so good. I'll never forget the first time i heard underoath. People ALWAYS dog on Aaron, like, the 'legit' drummers, lol. He's not trained, no he's not referencing your favorite jazz licks, and yea he hits really fucking hard. but its sick, and you can't throw shade on the dudes hooks, not vocal hooks, drums hooks. Best drum hook writer of all time in my books, the first thing I remember about EVERY UO song is the drum part, and it always stands out to people. Those violent rim shots, wild hats, and really off beat accents create a super unique drummer that needs like, 10x the love. And thank you for mentioning the structure!! my favorite thing about underoath and has stayed with me throughout my life in songwriting. Surprises in structure are memorable and powerful moments
Great reaction. This album (define the great line) is legendary, one of my all time favorites. They have some other good work in their discography, but none of it stands up to this IMO. Returning empty handed would be a great place to go from here.
Such a great band and their sound has really continued to progress. They just dropped a new album on Friday called Voyeurist that's definitely worth checking out. Thanks Geebz! Hope your recovery is going well!
Something I like about this track (among others) is the linear arrangement, where no major sections repeat (compared to standard cyclical arrangement with verse 1, verse 2, repeating choruses, etc.). Really takes you on a journey. EDIT: Whoops, left this comment in the middle of the video. Looks like you noticed this too, haha.
Man I listened to a lot of Underoath back in my teen years 10-15 years ago. Thank you for doing this video! Absolute masterpiece of an album by Underoath!
Bands like underoath changed everything about the music that I listened to before them.. the story plays out in the music and takes you through a journey as you said.
Absolutely love Underoath. If you decide to do another breakdown of them, I would recommend Too Bright to See Too Loud to Hear/Desolate Earth: The End is Here. They are technically 2 “separate” tracks, but if you listened to the album, you can’t tell unless you looked at the timer or track number. Really shows off their creativity in song writing/structure. Cheers!
Desolate Earth is a masterpiece and doesn't get the credit it deserves, it's composition is super unique and the 3 minute build up for the last minute of the song is totally worth it.
I can not tell you how many times 12 year old me played and listened to this song on my pink iPod shuffle I colored with a black sharpied , very cool to hear your opinion on the way this song was composed
This song is a deep cut for me, loved it since it came out, but watching this was like hearing it again for the first time. Gave me chills! I really liked your take on everything, coming from a somewhat outsider perspective. I'll keep it locked on this channel!
So cool to see you do this. Underoath's run of albums from define the great line to disambiguation is legendary and so influential to many bands that are out in the post hardcore/metalcore today. I find myself going back to them all the time because they sound so modern and representative of what's going on now. They also just released a great new album that is worth checking out, very good stuff that sounds even more modern and industrial in some moments
I still listen to this band frequently, UnderOath has a very special place in my heart, their arrangements, their vocals, their lyrics(I'm not religious, but their writing is amazing). One of my favorites is their song "Its dangerous business walking out your front door"
GoodNESSS I listened to this band in highschool and now my son listens and is inspired and I love these type vids! I’m biased so an honest opinion from a fellow musician is awesome always
Tim on lead guitar used a violin bow for those long notes towards the end of the song. To this day idk how Aaron can drum that perfectly while singing like he does. Crazy
Love this band and still continue to go to their shows. Returning Empty-handed is my favorite from them but the whole album of Define The Great Line is a masterpiece.
totally surprised to see you do Underoath, LOVE the album this song is off of (Define the Great Line). Would love to see more reactions to Underoath Geebz.
Aloha from California Aries represent I hope your show is getting better keep up with the good music brother keep exploring and if possible do at least like two or three videos a day and keeps me going thank you love you mean it aloha
Haven’t listened to Underoath in quite a bit, but I knew every lyric and most instrumental bits as soon as it came on. These guys are in many of our bones. Especially for the time, they set the bar. I’m excited to go back and listen to their discography this week! Any thoughts on their newest album? Haven’t checked it out yet??
when done well, the mix of harsh vocals and light vocals is one of the coolest things in metal. This song achieves this so well, one of the best of its era.
As a huge metal dude and UnderØath being one of my all time favorite bands, this is a super refreshing reaction. I loved how much you moved with the song
The next album after this one was recorded with very little editing or production effects. To the point where doubled vocals were two singers and not pitch corrected as opposed to the typical two takes from the same singer with pitch correction. Vocal reverb effects from moving the singer to another room. Natural feedback from the guitarists sitting by their amps. Just really cool and unique. Emergency broadcast the end is near is a great song.
Underoath's sound has basically always been defined by the tension between the two vocalists. I love this freaking album.
one would say a great line they've defined? lol
one of the best albums of all time. I've listened to it maybe five hundred times through.
The fact that Aaron Gillespie is drumming like this while singing like this has always been mindblowing to me. What a sight to behold live.
Definitely some crazy talent. Underoath and From Autumn to Ashes having drummers that sing and scream, set such a high bar for musicianship during my formative high school years.
You'll be shocked when you listen to Code Orange
@@Williamlongsword-l2c They don't do it anymore.
@@RudolfHorvath yeah ik my guy, they're one of my favorite bands. Doesn't take away from how insane Hate5six's Code Orange 2019 is. Jamie became just a vocalist so he could put on a better show as a frontman. Underoath has Spencer fronting the band so Aaron doesn't have that pressure.

As far as the vocals go, the harsh vocals are Spencer Chamberlain, who just does vocals, and the clean singing is Aaron Gillespie, their drummer!
One thing to note is that Spencer does a lot more clean vocals especially in the later albums, including all of them on the album Disambiguation when Aaron left the band for a while. The last couple albums they’ve played a lot with mixing both of their clean vocals which has been fun.

@@Squ334k which parts are Tim? I can only hear Aaron
@@jakehobbs The constant high pitched yell you hear underneath Spencer's parts of the song are Tim.
listening to a professional musician/composer recognize just how unbelievably talented the guys of Underoath are is really awesome. Love this!
“ I REMEMBER YOUR PRESENCEEEEE” always gives me the waterworks. me and an old buddy shared a deep love for this song together and he died almost two years ago. always think about him when i hear it!
I’m sorry for your loss ❤
@@obiwankeblowme2805 thanks❤️
Very sorry for your loss. It’s great to know y’all could bond over something incredible like Underoath. Wishing the best for you and yours.
@@KingdomHeart556 thank you!❤️
Whoa, this one caught me off guard! This song is so nostalgic for me.
Damn.. the early 00s are now nostalgic.. kickass song though
Oh man if this isn’t the truth… I’ll be listening to this album all day now!

@@Rooster1997 oh man I bet. It sounds fantastic on my Sony XM4's. Oddly, the production quality is miles ahead of the album they just put out.

Right next to Alexisonfire.

Sometimes the "soundtrack of your life" bands aren't artists you listened to, but artists EVERY ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS listened to. This is mega '05 - '08 nostalgia for me.
Same here friend wasn't a big underoath fan but I was forced to jam to them because friends.
Saosin is another great band to cover. They had two vocalists (Anthony Green and Cove Reber) and their styles are black and white.
True, I got to see Saosin with Cove Reber back in the day, it was awesome.
saosin, anthony green as the vocalist, the first release. it's an ep. fun fact, the guy who recorded drums for them on the EP was a drum tech for slayer and that's why the drums are SOOOOO metal (and sick)
Deadlights is another great dual vocalists band to check out
Would rather see a Circa deep dive, but I'll take either
@@sentientcardboarddumpster7900 yeah
watching you listen to underoath for the first 30 seconds gave me goosebumps like its me hearing them for the first time
The producer was the guitarist from killswitch engage and they had a documentary on the process. It's fairly entertaining
The second half of this song makes me cry every damn time. As soon as Spencer says "I remember... your presence" I just break down. I have no idea why.
Same. It makes me think of the family and friends I've lost. You're not alone.
When it comes to this specific genre, underoath basically started it and mastered it. For me they are as good as this style gets
When the sun sleeps? Is that the right name of an old underoath song with the funky intro? Was the first one in my circle to find that song, on limewire or bearshare or something, was so damn hooked. Haven't thought about that in a time.
Holy shit you are doing Underoath!!! Yes!!! Anything from Define The Great Line or Lost In The Sound Of Separation would be KILLER!!!!!! Thanks for this GEEBZ!!!
Yea didn’t expect this haha
Man this right here is a track. Brings me back.
Finally, my favorite band crosses your desk. Keep the Underoath songs coming Geebz!
So glad he finally reacted to them too!
I think people often overlook how detailed Underoath’s songwriting in this era was, and you captured it perfectly. Lots of creative work with dynamics, rhythm and song structure
Converge or At the Drive-In are some more great examples of metalcore/post-hardcore. You’re the man, Geebz
also incredibly creative song structures that feels like the piece progresses naturally
Converge! One of Underoaths albums artwork was done by Jacob Bannon of Converge
My favorite song from my favorite album from my favorite band!
My favorite band I’m excited as can be
Woooooo
Remember the first time I saw this music video, was at a youth group thing at a church we all skateboarded at 🤟
Morning morning. Here in Cleveland we got plastered with snow. Total opposite from Hawaii.
New band, I don't think I've heard em before

first time i listed to lost in the sound i didn't realize i was on track three bc i thought 1 and 2 were one song as well.
Aaron Gillespie is one of my favorite drummers, and he kills it while also doing the clean vocals.
You should do more from these guys. Define the great line is an amazing album. One of those made to be listened to all the way through.
i know this is old but you might enjoy the composition of "in regards to myself" by Underoath, its on the same album Define the Great Line
I can not tell you how many times 12 year old me played and listened to this song on my pink iPod shuffle I colored with a black sharpied , very cool to hear your opinion on the way this song was composed

I still listen to this band frequently, UnderOath has a very special place in my heart, their arrangements, their vocals, their lyrics(I'm not religious, but their writing is amazing). One of my favorites is their song "Its dangerous business walking out your front door"
One of the most unique "metalcore" bands ever.
GoodNESSS I listened to this band in highschool and now my son listens and is inspired and I love these type vids! I’m biased so an honest opinion from a fellow musician is awesome always
Kinda crazy how you are doing an underoath reaction at this point in time. They literally just came out with a new album too
Do more classic Underoath!
Tim on lead guitar used a violin bow for those long notes towards the end of the song.
To this day idk how Aaron can drum that perfectly while singing like he does. Crazy
Love this band and still continue to go to their shows.
Returning Empty-handed is my favorite from them but the whole album of Define The Great Line is a masterpiece.
totally surprised to see you do Underoath, LOVE the album this song is off of (Define the Great Line). Would love to see more reactions to Underoath Geebz.
Aloha from California Aries represent I hope your show is getting better keep up with the good music brother keep exploring and if possible do at least like two or three videos a day and keeps me going thank you love you mean it aloha
The drummer, Aaron Gilespie, also has his own solo album and was in the band "The Almost"...check him out!
Very cool watching your reaction to this. This album is just incredible!
Norma Jean Bless The Martyr And Kiss The Child is a great album! Definitely worth a listen.
The real defining metal core album of the 00s.
Norma Jean! There’s a band I haven’t listened in a hot minute!
What a blast back to high school. Always a great selection from the master decomposer.
"There could be nothing after this" - Underoath is my favorite song by them. Highly recommend checking it out
I love this band. First CD i ever bought was from them. Also, from Oahu too. Kapahulu area. Unique seeing a youtuber from hawai`i
Wait until you find out that drummer you dig so much does the clean vocals too
Aaron is a mad man in the drums especially while singing just so amazing and talented and just to be able to do that both is brilliant
By far my favorite rock album of all time
Great song from a great band sweet react thx dude
Fun fact about define the great line. They used violin bows on their guitars for some of the more "ethereal" sounds you hear on some of the tracks.
I love that you did Underoath! Please check out some more especially off of You're Only Chasing Safety
I've been waiting for this for so long.
My Favorite band. So much nostalgia. Listen to their new live set (of older songs) ‘live from the Observatory’ engineers/band killed it in this set.
still here ...good morning!!!
Just because of this review/reaction, you won a new subscriber! This is my favorite band!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
The drummer does most of all the clean singing! Such an amazing band!
LOVE seeing Underoath on here! One of my favorite bands of all time. They're incredible songwriters and performers.
This is one of the best melodic metalcore songs ever made
Saw them live last month. I'm in my mid 30's and I got in the mosh pit. Never too old
I was in like six grade when I heard this for the first time. Still gives me chills.
One of the greatest albums of all time.
Haven’t listened to Underoath in quite a bit, but I knew every lyric and most instrumental bits as soon as it came on. These guys are in many of our bones. Especially for the time, they set the bar. I’m excited to go back and listen to their discography this week!
Any thoughts on their newest album? Haven’t checked it out yet??
New Album is Solid. Give it a listen.
I actually like it. U check it out yet?
when done well, the mix of harsh vocals and light vocals is one of the coolest things in metal. This song achieves this so well, one of the best of its era.
As a huge metal dude and UnderØath being one of my all time favorite bands, this is a super refreshing reaction. I loved how much you moved with the song
Fantastic band. Fantastic reaction. ❤️
The next album after this one was recorded with very little editing or production effects. To the point where doubled vocals were two singers and not pitch corrected as opposed to the typical two takes from the same singer with pitch correction. Vocal reverb effects from moving the singer to another room. Natural feedback from the guitarists sitting by their amps. Just really cool and unique. Emergency broadcast the end is near is a great song.
Holy crap what a blast from the past :O Would love to see you react to some He Is Legend one day (my other favorite band from that time
I Am Hollywood is so unique and memorable. One of my top favorite albums still to this day!
