It’s up there! I think the refreshing nature of this specific song, and it’s beautiful weirdness, makes it so easy to listen to over and over… still not bored!
I want to comment on here to try to tie some stuff together that a lot of you guys might know but he may have not known when he listened to it. They allowed Tim to for the first time contribute to lyric writing. It’s a concept song about the death of his father. If you keep that in mind with the lyrics it’s definitely a journey. Super dark. Honestly as an ER doc who was in the ICU with Covid pneumonia patients the music and changes in tones and volumes are conveying to me a journey of death. The lyrics drive this home too. When the intermittent big guitar riffs come in and drop to stripped down drums I imagine someone getting cardioverted or defibrillated. Someone fighting for their life. It doesn’t hit me like my favorite Underoath stuff does but conceptually it’s pretty crazy to think about. The lyrics just reading and listening about “suffocating” and “fight til there’s nothing left” “skin and bones”. Pretty wild. RIP to Tim’s father. Not sure if it was Covid or not. But, it gives so much added depth to the song. This isn’t the only “correct” interpretation and can mean different things to everyone that’s the great part about music. But, I think with the background of Tim and his father you have to take that into consideration before listening.
First time I heard this, I was kinda feeling the vibes at the beginning. When the first verse ended and there were those ominous keys, I thought it was gonna lead into a sick drop. It didn’t and I was extremely disappointed. Stopped listening like less than a minute after. Few weeks later, gave it another chance and forced myself to listen to the whole thing, and damn.. something just clicked. Not sure what it was, but this song is so beautiful and sad. Now I’ve got it on replay. Just goes to show sometimes you never truly hear the full capacity of a song the first time around. Focusing on the subject of the song also helped me really get into this the second time
I agree about the 2nd part. I actually threw the song in GarageBand quick and cut the song so it transitions right from that dark droning synth into the 3rd part and it sounded better IMO.
my little baby died from pneumonia. she is just 3 months old. it is already 4 years now. yet I still remember I walk to the hospital the night she died. the feeling I have is something cant be told. the second part of this song really hit me. it is the same melancholy feeling I feel over the years. the guitar sound feel so calm ..
Erase Me was overly reliant on keys and loops. They said in an interview Tim didn’t put much effort into his guitar riffs at all so they worked around him. I gave up, rapture, wake me, no frame, it was basically an synth rock album with sprinkles of metal. This song is the right way to use keys in an Underoath song. Dark, ambient, accents the music. Beautiful.
Writing On The Walls is the only Underoath song I really listened too. However this song is really cool and I love how atmospheric the sound is in this. If the overall sound of this album Voyeurist is like this then I'm all in!
My complaint about this song is it constantly felt like it was building to something but never popped. Dont get me wrong, I will like this song in future listens NOW that I know what to expect. But for a first listen I was left wanting more.
I know it’s an old comment but I had to add to this. Feeling like you were left wanting more... might be a good thing. I love this song and it’s like I never wanted it to end.
@@ShibbyRL this song definitely grew on me. I appreciate it for what it is and don’t need the *pop* from it. A lot of times when bands we love release new music we incorporate too much of our expectations to appreciate what’s in front of us. Would a pop been cool? Yeah. But this song is fine as it is. Thanks for bringing me back to this comment!!
Tim contributed to the lyrics on this one, its.about his father. This is half Deftones/half Norma Jean, just a little drawn out but better than anything off Erase Me for sure. Hoping for more like Damn Excuses.
I'm hearing some Radiohead vibes after the 5 min mark. I was just a teen and was hanging with Arron ( way before they made it) and we talked about Radiohead
as a huge UO fanboy from the very beginning ..i absolutely hate their new music..literally every album from Act of Depression to Disambiguation were fucking amazing but the new stuff is just meh ..their lyrics mean nothing anymore. Literally every song before this new album was filled with stories and the lyrics hit hard
This is MILES better than the two previous singles. Big Deftones vibes throughout and even Norma Jean during those heavy moments. I did a reaction as well but I think it got blocked again. How do you blur out the video? Is there any effect on iMovie for it?
@Call Me, BLEGH Me, If You Wanna Reach Me LOL oh man, imagine if Aaron left. What did you think of this song? I thought it was their best yet. If there's any other tracks like this from them then I could become a much bigger fan of them.
@Call Me, BLEGH Me, If You Wanna Reach Me Yeah, I watched Hard Core's reaction. Got mine recorded too so I'll have that uploaded soon. Stick To Your Guns as well before the night ends.
@@forevermarked5826 I'm not hating on it, but I don't necessarily see myself listening to it very much. It has some potential to grow on me more, but I think they wore their Deftones influence on their sleeve a bit too much. Whereas with this track, they already kinda dabbled with proggy stuff on Disambiguation. Plus Spencer's voice is just so beautiful and fits this style better IMO. I'm curious how the rest of the SP album will sound though.
This is probably my favorite song they've put out since they released Define The Great Line honestly.

It’s an amazing song for sure, definitely in my top five they’ve ever put out!
“No one can help me, every prayer is fake” That’s so deep and exactly how you feel when you lose a loved one.

In my top three underoath songs for sure. Beautiful and powerful. Especially love the 2nd half.

You were waiting for a cliche. That’s why you were disappointed.

My condolences, friend. Know it doesn't mean shit from a stranger online, but I hope you find heeling.
@@burninsherman1037 thank you . mean a lot to me brother .
I absolutely love this. So beautifully atmospheric.

Underoath died: then had a reincarnation of life, and was born into pure darkness and I love it
Huge Poison the Well feel to this, like the back end of their discography
That's a name I haven't heard in awhile!
Oh shit, time to back and Listen...great band

@4:50 You can see he totally gets it. the looks on his face was gold.
As soon as the song started i got strong deftones vibes sucha solid song from these men 🙌🏻
Eyes on Fire by Blue Foundation type of vibes
Been waiting all day for this video!
Really cool sound of this one. I love how atmospheric and eerie it is
This is absolutely Casting Such a Thin Shadow pt. 2
I'm pretty sure they were going with a psychedelic vibe with this one... the eerie sounds, the layering....
Well damn I dig it with those Deftones vibes
I'm hearing some Radiohead vibes after the 5 min mark. I was just a teen and was hanging with Arron ( way before they made it) and we talked about Radiohead
Orbit Culture - Shaman EP is out, would love to see your reaction!

Got serious Billy Corgan/Smashing Pumpkins vibes from the mellow stuff.
I hear more Deftones
@@rossmusic25 With a touch of Norma Jean during the heavy parts.
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 I don’t listen to them so I wouldn’t know

@Call Me, BLEGH Me, If You Wanna Reach Me Yeah, I saw! Fit For An Autopsy as well!
I still think Damn Excuses is the best single from the new album but I really like this one.
@@AK_Respecter I thought that track had some decent heaviness to it but I couldn’t stand the edgy lyrics.
Underoath STARTED as a prog band like 24 years ago
Yep
I probably won’t listen to this til the album comes out cause closing tracks as singles bother me but commenting for birb!
yes!!! u on it like usual..felt like sunny day real estate or mew vibes to me..
Never got into Underoath, I like this song.
Another album release and another closer to an album released as a single. WHY?!
Such a great song to listen to when 420 comes around.
Underoath or deftones 🤗🤗🤗😍😍
Darker By Design pleaseeee they're a death metal band with a cello
Title includes the word Prog
Me: Did I just got catfished?
hahaha yeah i'd say post-metal-y or something
That second part be really Pink Floyd interestingly lol
Hey man, you’ve got to check out the new WBTBWB track Jump ‘n’ Run. It’s so damn heavy!
This is Define The Great Line meet Disambiguation IMO
Do you personally like cries of the past and act of depression?
The new Invent, Animate track on their EP though.......wow
i love it but im a Deftones stan so its right up my alley
You move
Like I want too.........
Masterpiece
Dude, you've got to react to Follow the Light by Dirty Loops. Won't regret.
A Perfect circle meets deftones ?
As If It Never Was by Invent, Animate
They've
progressive elements for years
React to new single Dead mans diary by Paleface and Landmvrks!
Orbit Culture - Strangler!!! F..ck Yeah🤘🤘🤘
8:42 Pre Spencer Underoath is nothing but bangers
😍😍😍😍😍😍
It’s too experimental IMO
I think it has the perfect balance. Even better than the new Silent Planet track.
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 I don’t like it personally
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 I dunno about that...new silent planet is amazing

New silent planet is God tier.

Soo good 😏
