Define the Great Line is a masterpiece in its grenre. In 2006 there wasn't a single band that was making music like this. After this album dropped there was a surge of metalcore acts trying to copy this sound. Absolutly fantastic
I remember seeing the music video for "Writing on the Walls" on mtv2 when it first dropped. I was blown away. Never heard anything like that before then and I wanted more.
@@dynamitebandito2172 everything up to Lost in the Sound of Separation. I haven’t listened to anything later than that. They are a great band and I can’t believe this comment was from 7 years ago 😂
This song is the best for anyone in any sort of recovery. Like a kid in a broken home . In a house full of silence its so violent. This song captures the essence of human reality & Survival.
I am 16 years old, and I am heavily addicted to ritalin. I just lost my script at the beginning of this summer. I am lost, I am scared, and I just got out of the worst withdrawal I’ve had by far. This song as well as being with my friends really helped me today. when all else fails I can always rely on Underoath.
@@harrisnoland plz hang in there. define the great line is a great album and got me through dark shit, too. "casting such a thin shadow" and "to whom it may concern" are a must for you, i'd say
All I know is that Everybody was expecting the same old switch to Emo after "they only chasing safety" and this single came out as a nice punch in the face to the industry Emo trend. I can't tell how much Underoath gained my complete respect ever since! This song is just STRONG!
Yeah remember that from high school lol they went from screamo to metal core, i liked the harder/darker sound. But they are only chasing is the best album
+Robert Bas Genuinely, thank you for commenting a bit of the back-story, I'm a new Underoath fan, so knowing this definitely makes me appreciate the bands and especially this song even more :)
Wake up! Wake up! My God! This is not a test! And it's not too late to come clean Get it off your chest So steady your hand before your face and concentrate There's got to be some stable ground Left to walk on So tear another page from the book Are you asleep or just alone? Clear this room from your lungs Pull yourself together Pull yourself together, man Pull yourself together Pull yourself together On your back, You're sleeping in a bed of shame Let the light breath some new life into this room It's what keeps you coming back Made up of insatiable taste Bury your head in your hands And sing into yourself Oh! Just what are you so afraid of? What are you so afraid of? You're staring truth in the face So come on down What are you so afraid of? You're busy living now, aren't you? You're busy making vows You're coming unglued Time is shorter than you know I know the light is blinding to the naked eye So why don't you take steps away from being alone? I swear, it's not too late for you It's all worth reaching for It's all worth reaching for It's all worth reaching for The hand to pull you out It's all worth reaching for The hand to pull you out Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! And step outside your box Wake up!
I had found this song like 8 years ago at 13 and was the first song from underoath I heard. I'm not Christian but i enjoyed the music then and still like coming back to their old songs now and again bc nostalgia. I still remember all the lyrics to all of the old songs haha
because real music is only heard through the ears of the righteous. people think lil wayne and nicki are cool because of what they talk about. this is real music, only the few know what it really is.
Go back and listen to poison the well 99 , a static lullaby 2001 , glasjaw 2000 , lot of bands did it before them haha. I love the oath but they defiantly did not invent this bud do some research.
God damn I remember listening to this at 6am on MTV 2 music videos, getting ready for school in the 5th grade when this song and album first came out.. fuck time flies, this band still means everything to me. thank you underoath for always being there for me until I die
This was the best when I was 16 I remember listening to this and as I lay dying constantly also some old school the devil wears Prada now I’m in my 30s
As a teenager I had an alarm clock as a CD player. This song woke me up everyday for 2 years. I went out and bought the deluxe edition the same week it came out
I was super into Behemoth, As I Lay Dying, Cradle of Filth when I first heard these guys in 04/05. I remember really liking Reinventing even then and even Defining. Great band that has stood the test of time
I still love this song and I’ll just be going about my business then the whole…”pull another page from the book” line pops into my head…I’ll just want to start slam dancing and screaming in the middle of my day hahah
If anyone's interested in the lyrics: Wake up, wake up, wake up This is not a test It's time to me to come clean To get it off your chest So, steady your hand before your face And concentrate There's gotta be some stable ground We have to walk on So, tear another page from the book Are you asleep or just alone?

I was 10 or 11 when this was out on mtv. I’m not religious or anything like that; but growing up and experiencing life, this song hits me in the feels as well as Writing on the Walls
+Bryan Baez you must not be a very big fan of thrash, death, or black metal lol or 90s hardcore and metalcore. Cries of the Past is some the sickest blackened metalcore I've heard. is it the vocals? I know a lot of people aren't fond of Dallas' rawer screaming.
![[DOKKAN BATTLE] Worldwide Campaign Announcement Video](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/zxfEiMksZQs/mqdefault.jpg)
this band and this music is still as relevant to me as a 28 year old man as it was to me as a 18 year old lost teenager.
Same...
likewise
that's why I'm here lol
So you havent pulled yourself together maaaan
You look like a chick.

This is an absolute fact. I love comments like these. I just got underoath tattooed on my stomach and it hurt so fucking. Good
There was definitely bands doing this sound before them but of course, Underoath made this sound mainstream
Not a single band? Jesus dude hardcore was at its peak in like 2006. Horse the Band, Atreyu, countless others.
Not sure I’f call it a “masterpiece,” but it was good. And this isn’t metalcore, dude. Like, at all. This is post hardcore.
this song is my alarm to wake up in the morning
Wake up! Wake up! WAKE UPPP!!!
suicide silence wake up 😂
+mortalcare no.
That's a great idea! 👏
DUUUDE that was my alarm for like 2 years straight.
I love old Underoath... Nothing can seriously beat them.
Like Dallas Taylor Underoath or before they started making radio friendly music?

ITS ALL WORTH REACHING FOR!! ITS ALL WORTH REACHING FORRRRR!!

Underoath for life.

6 years later, do you still feel that way??

Shoutout to everyone in 2022 still coming back to this gem. I spent my entire high school flooring it on my way to school with this band blasting
Forever and always Underoath
2:19 thats me in the froooont! before I was a part of this I didn't even know who underoath was.. lol. pretty unreal.
That's epic!!
thats really really cool lolz this was one of my underoath favorites since i was 14
Jenki, did you get into heavier music after being in the vid?
@@joshdraken1 when I became a little older I started listening to BMTH, Escape the Fate and bullet for my valentine haha
@@xXJenkaaaXx whoa, you grew up to be pretty awesome!!! btw, Merry Christmas!
Loved this song back in the day. I had it on my MySpace page 😎
“You’re busy living now, aren’t you…” Aaron’s voice never fails to give me chills
Wake up! Wake up! My God!
This is not a test!
And it's not too late to come clean
Get it off your chest
So steady your hand before your face and concentrate
There's got to be some stable ground
Left to walk on
So tear another page from the book
Are you asleep or just alone?
Clear this room from your lungs
Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together, man
Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together
On your back,
You're sleeping in a bed of shame
Let the light breath some new life into this room
It's what keeps you coming back
Made up of insatiable taste
Bury your head in your hands
And sing into yourself
Oh!
Just what are you so afraid of?
What are you so afraid of?
You're staring truth in the face
So come on down
What are you so afraid of?
You're busy living now, aren't you?
You're busy making vows
You're coming unglued
Time is shorter than you know
I know the light is blinding to the naked eye
So why don't you take steps away from being alone?
I swear, it's not too late for you
It's all worth reaching for

Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
And step outside your box

Godam this is inspiring to me right now
This song brings me back to when I was in high school. This album had just came out, its such a great album
+kenan sheldrew now you can re-live it since they're playing it in full on tour next year
+Andrew Mirasol they are??? didn't they break up??
Quick Sempai they did but they're back together!
Andrew Mirasol yaasssssssd my lifeee is complete
+Andrew Mirasol They aren't back together its just for one tour.
Underøath forever in my heart, and my memories bring me back my high school (depressions) days, please!!!
I had found this song like 8 years ago at 13 and was the first song from underoath I heard.
I'm not Christian but i enjoyed the music then and still like coming back to their old songs now and again bc nostalgia. I still remember all the lyrics to all of the old songs haha
2:44 just for myself to keep repeating this masterpiece… cant say how much this is so satisfying
1:51
because real music is only heard through the ears of the righteous. people think lil wayne and nicki are cool because of what they talk about. this is real music, only the few know what it really is.
Found this when I was in middle school. Here I am 30 with kids, just bought my first new home this week. Damn life’s weird. I don’t feel this old 😅
congrats man. u still young af tho
Me too! 29 just bought my first home with a baby due in 2 months. Listening back to Underoath 😂
still on the gym playlist. "its all worth reaching for" when youre on the last rep or last mile just gives me that adrenaline dump STILL
I remeber watching this guys video on MTV..
The album taught me as a kid 21 years ago that i have to have faith in my future and to keep walking forward.
This song saved my life and helped me get out of depression in high school. Thanks UO
This got me on them. I heard a lot about them. Lots of praise from various people. I'm glad that they got to live their dream for a while.
Old underoath is the GOAT
Still remember seeing them on tv for the release of chasing safety. No one had that sound back then. They invented it. Now everyone sounds like it.
what the fuck are you talking about? LMAO it aged perfectly fine
They invented this sound?
i have no idea what your reply even means.
they def did it right, first. mixing screaming with melody in the genre that would eventually become 'screamo'
Go back and listen to poison the well 99 , a static lullaby 2001 , glasjaw 2000 , lot of bands did it before them haha. I love the oath but they defiantly did not invent this bud do some research.
God damn I remember listening to this at 6am on MTV 2 music videos, getting ready for school in the 5th grade when this song and album first came out.. fuck time flies, this band still means everything to me. thank you underoath for always being there for me until I die
I remember this on MuchLoud when I was in high school in the late 00s. The nostalgia.
One of the best UO songs!
March 2023. Still listening to this song. I have been to 3 underoath shows and have been lucky enough to mosh to it
I can't believe This band has been important to me for over 10 years. I started listening to them in fifth grade.
This was the best when I was 16 I remember listening to this and as I lay dying constantly also some old school the devil wears Prada now I’m in my 30s
Same here!! 🖤
The fucking line. "Pull yourself together." Make me just wanna pull myself together. It's like a straight kick in the ass.
Remember when every phxc band ever started writing instrumentals like this after this song dropped? I member
Still my #1 fav band
every time I listen to underoath, I remember that I legit adore them
This is another song from Underoath I love ♥
As a teenager I had an alarm clock as a CD player. This song woke me up everyday for 2 years. I went out and bought the deluxe edition the same week it came out
I've only known this song for 3 months and its already my most listened song on spotify
One of the best heavy songs of all time still, in my top 3
In Regards To Myself!! I love this song!!
Listening to this album growing up going through some serious trauma I don’t think I ever realized how positive the lyrics are
Please make a new album y'all are the best metal band ever in my opinion. Really changed my life with lost in the sound of separation
Well, they released an album last year
just shows you how much true talent is respected
That riff is so sick, one of the best imo! Great song guys!
Best UO song in my opinion.
It is definitely among their best!
i love this song. and the video is crazy
R.I.P underOATH. You will be missed. :'(
masterpiece
I was super into Behemoth, As I Lay Dying, Cradle of Filth when I first heard these guys in 04/05. I remember really liking Reinventing even then and even Defining. Great band that has stood the test of time
I havent played this song since 2007 and as soon the song started i started singing! i remember every word as i did 6years ago. I love Underoath
this song continues to change my life...one of those timeless masterpieces
i,m a fan of underoath
Such a sick video, miss this band alot
Connor Girvin They're back.
+AtrocityEquine FUCK YES THEY ARE I AM SO STOKED

Underoath: In Regards to Myself
Release Date: November 27th, 2006 (16 years)
Ending give me chill every time
In regards to this song....AWESOME!
That's riff at .50 gets me every time
Haven’t heard this album in years, so nostalgic and still holds up 🔥
I remember when I got this album. This was the first song and it was like stepping into another world.
We need the 4K version!!!
wow. 30 second ad i can't skip
R.I.P. UnderØath. You will be missed \m/
I still love this song and I’ll just be going about my business then the whole…”pull another page from the book” line pops into my head…I’ll just want to start slam dancing and screaming in the middle of my day hahah
So many memories man.
freaking amazing song!
This song still hits in 2023!!
love the song and video!
PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER!
This was the best alarm for when i had to wake up for work at 4am. My neighbor didnt think so tho 😂
love underøath
I recall listening to this song in 2008, I was 13 years old. This band made me see life differently
If anyone's interested in the lyrics:
Wake up, wake up, wake up
This is not a test
It's time to me to come clean
To get it off your chest
So, steady your hand before your face
And concentrate
There's gotta be some stable ground
We have to walk on
So, tear another page from the book
Are you asleep or just alone?
Clear this room from your lungs
Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together, man
Pull yourself together
Pull yourself together
On your back
You're sleeping in a bed of shame
Let the light breathe some
New life into this room
It's what keeps you coming back
Made up of insatiable songs
Bury your head in your hands
Then sing it to yourself, oh
Just what are you so afraid of?
What are you so afraid of?
You're staring truth in the face
So, come on down
What are you so afraid of?
You're busy living now, aren't you? No
You're busy making vows
You're coming unglued
Time is shorter than you know
I know the light is blinding to the naked eye
So, why don't you take steps away from being alone?
I swear, it's not too late for you
It's all worth reaching for
It's all worth reaching for
It's all worth reaching for
The hands will pull you out
It's all worth reaching for
The hands will pull you out
Wake up, wake up, wake up
And step outside your box
Wake up, wake up
They need to get this band back together asap
It is a huge coincidence that I was watching a Tekashi video by Akademiks and then I see this comment. LOL
14 years after and still gets me goosebumps
Still listening Dec ‘19
I was 10 or 11 when this was out on mtv. I’m not religious or anything like that; but growing up and experiencing life, this song hits me in the feels as well as Writing on the Walls
This band and this music is still as relevant to me now (as a 31 year old man) as it was to me 11 years ago.
I'm pushing 30 and it still gives me chills. Comforting chills, but it's crazy how the butterflies never went away
@@cait7660 I've been listening to this almost every day for the past couple weeks now
This video is genius .
i listen to the new stuff and this is way better, although i listened to underoath back when they came out. the original emo
Everything they're only chasing safety and on is great
literally nothing emo about it and emo started in the 80s.
+Bryan Baez their old stuff is also phenomenal.
+kakashi66132 meh. I'm not big on the changing of times and the two eps I can't get down with at all.
+Bryan Baez you must not be a very big fan of thrash, death, or black metal lol or 90s hardcore and metalcore. Cries of the Past is some the sickest blackened metalcore I've heard. is it the vocals? I know a lot of people aren't fond of Dallas' rawer screaming.
Pull yourself together, man!
Breathing In A New Mentality > In Regards To Myself
Dude...they're all amazing, it's Underoath
Solid fans stay
COME BACK TO CHILE PLEASE
"It's all worth reaching for"
It's funny cause their music has biblical and Christian undertones since they're Christian.
Clasico!!!
Example of a band that doesn't have to tune their guitars past Drop D to give themselves a heavy as fuck sound
But they did anyway :P
they only had 3 songs in a different tuning; Illuminator, Paper Lung, and In division
anythingguy55 I know, but they still did it lol
anythingguy55 i think every time i die didn't either
Even though this IS in drop D.
I got Kesha. These time they are a'changin.
that telephone has one extremly long chord! lmbo x D
God damn it. Still so amazing!!!
