Dear Spencer, I am that fan that listens to Underoath in my car everyday and my wife can attest to that. Stoked to see you guys at the VIP in Denver tomorrow !
Gosh, I am so humbled by Spencer’s vulnerability here. Being so honest about an addiction journey is not easy. But I think it shows he is in such a better place he can begin to talk more openly about it and process it. But gosh, I just really want anyone who might be struggling reading this know that you matter. Your life matters and I hope that you find that peace someday.
5:55 This is such a true statement about music making people cry. When (even myself) you deal with mental health/depression struggles, you relate so much more emotionally to music. It’s literally therapy for me because I’m so antisocial and feel like a burden asking for help so I just listen (and drum) to music and some days it makes me cry. Hell, just an hour ago I started crying at the end of “to whom it may concern” because “at the end of the road, you’ll find what you’ve been longing for” and it just hits me hard. 16 year fan of UØ. Thank y’all. ❤️
Was at the San Antonio show and you guys killed it! The mixing was fucking insane for your show! So glad I finally got to see you guys live for the first time, well worth it especially with these new songs mixed in there.
Spencer is crazy, Underoath is a car concert band!! It's basically a live concert when Underoath is on my speakers! So glad these two shared the inner workings. I can't imagine how healing that must have felt to put a voice to what Aaron has been feeling for so long!
I feel like you guys can only go up from here! Voyeurist has really blown me away. It tugs at my heart strings, and every song feels so raw. I love the honesty in these podcasts. It’s hard to be honest with friends and family enough as it is, and you guys are putting this all out there for us fans and the world. This band has changed my life in so many ways and I’m so thankful to have had the opportunity to experience your shows live. Nothing beats the feeling you get at an Underoath show.
First, I'd like to say I went to my first Underoath show last night and had a blast. I had a little bit of exposure to the band back in the day but only really got into you guys in recent years after Lil Peep sampled your songs. Secondly, I'm glad society has come a long way since the 2000s regarding substance use. I was taught DARE at school and learned it was bullshit the hard way as an adult after someone I knew died from an overdose. It was only after I had surgery several months ago and the drugs I was given during and after it that I began to have any understanding of what might compel someone to use. (As an aside, the surgery was for my almost-blind left eye. I'm a cyclops like Aaron.)
It would be interesting to see a Disambiguation Pt2 with Aaron getting his metal drumming on as justice for not being apart of Disambiguation. Even as a 5 track EP. Call up Daniel for some production as a throwback. Honestly a Disambiguation Pt2 EP would be really unexpected and very welcomed
I really wonder what Erase me would have been like if Aaron sang more on that record! After hearing him talk about being passive during the writing process and facilitating himself from everyone after rejoining the band. I wonder how different that record would have sounded like
The riff at 2:48 in the changing of times has so many similarities to the first riff in in regards to myself. Idk if Spencer was subconsciously doing that or it was on purpose
Loving this series! This episode was great. I was wondering with how much you all talk about digital ghosts, is there any chance a video or audio version will be released to be able to buy for those who didn’t get to see digital ghosts live?
wait wtf, am i weird if Underoath is is the kind of music i listen to in my car on the way to work, and them the kind of music i play at work? I that shit.
Spencer, every damn day in my car. Every. Damn. Day. Starting work at 7am? I need some UnderOath for this shit. Commute into London on the train? Perfect amount of time to listen to Define in full.
Best episode yet, it's so good to hear you both talk through your relationship together, usually it's either Aaron or Spee telling things from their own perspective, so this episode was really special. And this song hits different now that I know what went into it. Great job all around
41:38 "my collaboration with Spencer is more important to me than the band" Yea I totally understand that and kind of already knew that. You 2 are just as important to each other as you both are important in being in UO at all. No question a respectful take.
The way Aaron and Spencer talk about their relationship with each other is so special. Knowing their bond is as strong as it is makes the music that much better. ❤️
This is gonna land however it does, but shit like this just drives it home. I feel like the more people that see this, especially the people that have, as a sidenote or a passenger, which is mostly the listening community, get to more or less partake in whats went on and how the band has just grown together and separately, will empower the audience. (Best sentence structure, I know...) But watching this just is honestly uplifting and reinforcing. It just makes things more meaningful. The spotlight, or just extra light thats been shed on some things that probably the general audience perceives from listening to a song, has been brightened in my opinion. I've listened to you guys since TOCS. As a pure "listener" I didnt apply a lot of the song context, childishly, to actual life events. But now 20 years older Ive seen how thiings have developed. Obviously not to any in depth extent. But I will say that this episode, and the others as well, just have heightened my love and respect for the band and the music and increased the love and passion that I have for this band. You guys have been a gateway into musically where I am now. And as an adult, just continually opens my eyes to so many things. For what its worth I really hope you guys keep finding strength in each other, separate or together to continue to put out just real and raw music. I love you guys and cannot wait to see you all live again and to just keep on getting fed more and more music. I cant wait to share with my daughter the band her daddy listened to when he was growing up. All the memories and feelings I have from the times I was listening to these songs and now getting a better grip on where they came from....its just crazy.
Spee, I’m thank you for sharing. It’s these experiences and this sharing of pain that makes you guys what you are to me. You’ve been such a big help in the darkest hours of my life . And if I had a car, you best believe I’d be blasting your music every day. Keep doing what you do
Another amazing episode, this song is fucking perfection. I just saw you guys live a few days ago and I definitely cried. I'm in my 30's and your band is still getting me through shit so thank you.
Got to meet the guys in Phx at the VIP experience. Such an a amazing time Aarons funny af. Everyone seems so cool calm and collected. This is seriously the best they've ever sounded so happy to be alive to experience this new chapter of UO. Keep it up!!
Aaron, my dude, it's real. Voyeurist is your 2nd wind towards your 3rd act of your career. When people think of genuine hardcore rock music, they think of Underoath. I still listen to TOCS/DTGL/LITSOS every single day. Those are some of my favorite records ever recorded. Voyeurist is a perfect blend of everything great about UOmusic. Your cleans on Numb and your other contributions on this record keep me alive.
Is that a Waxwing poster in the background!? I bet the Venn diagram intersection of Underoath and Waxwing fans contains a very small group of people. Let's be best friends :).
I had not seen underoath ever; however, had been listening to them since I was 18 and let me just say that I agree with Spencer on it being an experience when these guys play live. The show at the Wiltern took me back to when I was younger going thru a bunch of issues and knowing that I was not alone. The show was awesome on all kinds of levels!!!
Went to the San Antonio show, was fucking amazing! was front and center the whole time screaming and singing my ass off in the pit. Spencer probably thought i was a syco but nothing outa the ordinary haha.
You could make an entire album like this and I think it would be tits. The "non-traditional, avant-garde" method is your best in my opinion. Fuck verse-chorus verse-chorus structure.
Dear Spencer,
I am that fan that listens to Underoath in my car everyday and my wife can attest to that. Stoked to see you guys at the VIP in Denver tomorrow !
Me too! UO has been a big part of my Spotify playlists used while driving for decades now, and it's not about to change even the slightest 😍.
Gosh, I am so humbled by Spencer’s vulnerability here. Being so honest about an addiction journey is not easy. But I think it shows he is in such a better place he can begin to talk more openly about it and process it. But gosh, I just really want anyone who might be struggling reading this know that you matter. Your life matters and I hope that you find that peace someday.
Very kind words! ❤️
True life: I cry when I see Underoath live, every time.
i saw them live for my first time last friday and i definitely cried during IDBWOYFD 😭
Gay!
This series is incredible. It's like an 11+ Hour Underoath Documentary.
these interviews are beautiful
5:55 This is such a true statement about music making people cry.

As a fan since 2005-ish, I'm super stoked to see you guys live for the first time at the House of Blues.
Hahaha Aaron references the question I asked the band at 1:06:30 love that!
As a vocalist, these two guys have inspired me so much. Can’t wait to see the boys live in a few weeks

Я из России, но очень люблю ваше творчество. Очень жаль , что вряд ли получится вас увидеть в живую.
Thank you for the insight guys. Great journey you guys have been on.. really relatable in so many ways. Thankyou
Incredible episode
Finally, let's get into it!! 🤘🏽
It would be interesting to see a Disambiguation Pt2 with Aaron getting his metal drumming on as justice for not being apart of Disambiguation. Even as a 5 track EP. Call up Daniel for some production as a throwback. Honestly a Disambiguation Pt2 EP would be really unexpected and very welcomed
So much respect for Spencer
I really wonder what Erase me would have been like if Aaron sang more on that record! After hearing him talk about being passive during the writing process and facilitating himself from everyone after rejoining the band. I wonder how different that record would have sounded like
Absolutely amazing
I always listen to UO in my car Spee

Loving this series! This episode was great. I was wondering with how much you all talk about digital ghosts, is there any chance a video or audio version will be released to be able to buy for those who didn’t get to see digital ghosts live?
wait wtf, am i weird if Underoath is is the kind of music i listen to in my car on the way to work, and them the kind of music i play at work? I that shit.
You are a live band but I jam you in my car and when I'm working.
One day JJ will wake up and realize he’s mixed Underoath’s third instant classic masterpiece album 🔥 🤘
He didn't mix Voyeurist, he engineered it (among other things). He mixed Digital Ghost.
@@JoeyFTL Not a music guy, here, so thank you for the correction! He engineered it, then, to perfection 🤌
@@k.enterante he did a spankin job for sure. I wish he mixed it too. I'm getting the feeling the guy who did wasn't really comfortable in this genre
Spencer, every damn day in my car. Every. Damn. Day. Starting work at 7am? I need some UnderOath for this shit. Commute into London on the train? Perfect amount of time to listen to Define in full.
Totally. I have a 50 minute walk to work everyday and I smile while I play TOCS & DTGL in full each way
Best episode yet, it's so good to hear you both talk through your relationship together, usually it's either Aaron or Spee telling things from their own perspective, so this episode was really special. And this song hits different now that I know what went into it. Great job all around

Yea I totally understand that and kind of already knew that. You 2 are just as important to each other as you both are important in being in UO at all. No question a respectful take.
Aaron “If that makes sense?” Gillespie
Tim “Quote Unquote” McTague
“you know what I mean?"
The way Aaron and Spencer talk about their relationship with each other is so special. Knowing their bond is as strong as it is makes the music that much better. ❤️

The blend of Spencer and Aarons vocals are amazing! I'm looking forward to upcoming albums where you (hopefully) embrace that even more 😍
Love this! Love the mess and the healing. Real "Christianity."
Yes!!! Been waiting for this. I love underoath so fucking much
Spencer, I listen to Underoath every day in my car.
so Aaron and Spencer are in love, confirmed
Thank you for sharing your story Spencer. It means a lot. I’m 7 months AF. 👊
I listen to Underoath in my car almost everyday....
Spee, I’m thank you for sharing. It’s these experiences and this sharing of pain that makes you guys what you are to me. You’ve been such a big help in the darkest hours of my life . And if I had a car, you best believe I’d be blasting your music every day. Keep doing what you do

Spencer, unfortunately I've never seen you guys live, but I promise you I listen to Underoath in my car pretty much daily!
I like Spencer’s “let’s do this” attitude. It is so awesome to hear everything they make. Cheers 🎉
I still start every morning with Take A Breath & Numb
Underoath is 1 of 2 bands I listen to every day, especially driving for work
Finally!

The Anaheim House Of Blues show was absolutely EPIC! Thank you guys so much for this new album!
I knew that this song was my favorite for many reasons and this only elevates it 1000 times! I love you guys and this series!
I would love to hear from Grant and James. They never get to have a voice it seems.
Somebody get me a big mac, cuz im lovin this
i listen to you guys everyday in my car lololol
