Can't hate the album for what it's not. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed the album didn't continue down the DTGL/LITSOS/Disambiguation path, but given Spencer's activity in Sleepwave during their time off, it really isn't too surprising when you think about it. That and this album is pretty obviously not a cash grab, anyone who thinks otherwise clearly hasn't seen the turnout for them touring on 12 year old albums for the last two years. That all being said, as far as this vein of "metalcore goes radio rock" a la Bring Me The Horizon, Of Mice & Men, etc, Erase Me blows these previous bands' efforts out of the water. As much as I loathed Rapture and Wake Me upon first listen, I woke up in the coming days with the choruses gnawing at the back of my mind and over time the album has grown into a master-class in how to soften rough edges, throw in a massive chorus, and push more accessible themes to the forefront while still retaining interesting song structure and lyrical integrity. Sure, I wish Spencer would've let loose with some lows here and there, and leaving Loneliness off the tracklisting of the actual album is a travesty, but all in all I'm happy to have a new underOATH album in 2018, and I have no doubt they will still put on one of the most intense live shows I'll see this year.

Shelby Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Is there a better example of lemmings on the board than this thread? "This sucks!" "Yeah!" "Fuck Underoath" "Trash!" "No guys this is actually good I convinced myself" "Yeah!" "Go Underoath!" "It's great!" Derek™ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okami Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 That’s true, but if you listen to every past release. I don’t feel this record stands out as particularly bad or good . In my opinion it’s a restarting point at the very least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna go spend it on another Sister Cities variant. throughbeingcruel and famousdrumer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
