Äîï. èíôîðìàöèÿ: I have honestly and humbly come to the realization that I absolutely love this
record. So much so that I have come back reworked my thoughts and this review
because I feel so strongly. After allowing Underoath’s latest effort to sit with
my ears for going on a month and thinking about how close the band came to not
existing (last years Warped Tour) and the personal concerns that plagued Spencer
so furiously, I finally get the message. Many understood right off bat (see Alt
Press etc) that this record had to be chaotic and had to be passionate because
the members creating the thunderous music are humans with emotions that must be
expressed. And while I enjoyed the melodic precision of their old style, I can
now say that I enjoy this raw and powerful album for what it is.
My first review of this album had me talking about how this new venture for UO
had «too much force» that «brazenly lashes out» which seems fitting after you
consider what is mentioned above. It isn’t everyday that you get an album that
you can say to yourself «this wasn’t made for money, or attention, but rather
passionate expression.» And more of those kinds of records are needed in todays
lethargic music scene.
Yes «Lost In The Sound Of Separation» does carry the taste of their 2006 album
«Define The Great Line» but the difference in purpose is what seems to make all
the difference with this release. There is far more driving it which makes it a
much stronger album in my opinion. Sure it doesn’t have the planned out complete
feel that Define did, but its differences are what unites it.
I must also talk about how much of a showcase this is for Aaron given this
harder direction for the band. His clean vocals seem to ring truer than ever
before, given that the crashing guitars and throaty growls from Spencer are
roaring so much more savagly now, which are remarkable in their own right. I
almost lost track in my head how many talents this new incarnation of Underoath
possesses and flexes with this new effort.
I also mentioned in my first review of this that it might take time for you to
get used to «Lost In The Sound Of Separation»?s style because it is such a
change from their earlier full-lengths and I see that my words are more truer
than I would have believed myself. This album hasn’t left my head and I
continuously listen to it almost every day. The raging ups and the soothing
downs of it make you realize that Underoath finally had something really
touchingly honest to bring to their listeners ears. And I applaud that. I don’t
think there has ever been something tugging at the back of my brain more than
thinking of the early thoughts I gave this album and giving its rightful credit
as an amazingly beautiful record is something that just feels natural and right.
Everyone needs to prepare their top 2008 lists because this will march up them
all and make its home at the top.
