Underoath started as a melodic christian black metal band and upon landing a record deal they implemented
more electronic elements on
The Changing of Times
(Solid State, 2002)
. On which their songs followed
a standard structure in the emo genre and eventually become entirely emo-pop on
They're Only Chasing Safety
(Tooth and Nail, 2004)
, giving 10x more verses to their clean vocalist, creating
an interesting two singer dynamic. Some highlights include
Down Set Go
,
Reinventing Your Exit
and
A Boy Brushed Red Living in Black and White
. From then on, their albums get progressively less pop and
back to their beginnings as a metal band with
Define the Great Line
(Tooth and Nail, 2006)
and
Lost in the Sound of Separation
(Tooth and Nail, 2008)
.
