“The Place After This One combines the sharp, earworm pop hooks of their later material with the raw, unfiltered aggression that put the band on the map in the first place.” – Revolver

“The Place After This One feels like no one else but Underoath. It’s frantic, bludgeoning, captivating, vulnerable, weird, and, more than anything, urgent.” – Rock Sound

Los Angeles, CA (March 28, 2025) – Today, Underoath, the iconic and genre-defining band, have finally returned with their highly-anticipated new album, The Place After This One, via MNRK Heavy. The album features the single “All The Love Is Gone,” which debuted at #1 Most Added at Active Rock Radio and is quickly moving up the charts faster than any single in the band’s career. The group also was featured on the covers of Alternative Press, New Noise Magazine, Revolver and Rock Sound. Renowned for their ability to transform chaos into harmony and aggression into anthemic survival, the Florida-based group has delivered a record that has once again redefined heavy music and is sure to expand their already massive audience. With two RIAA-certified gold albums, three Grammy nominations, and a legacy of uncompromising authenticity, Underoath is louder, bolder and more essential than ever, while continuing to push boundaries in ways that few bands dare.

The Place After This One marks a truly momentous occasion in the band’s history. It is a stunning document and a remarkable collection of songs, signaling a renaissance period in the beloved act’s storied career. The album showcases where they’re from and, more importantly, where they’re headed. It’s a masterpiece from musicians at the top of their game. Sonically, its references are varied and complex, and are a distillation of everything they’ve accomplished thus far: a crystalline vision blending hard rock, electronic experimentation, guttural screams and anthemic, call-to-arms choruses.

The Place After This One – Album Bio:
|
|
|
Underoath transforms noise, aggression, and atmosphere into weapons of survival, with spirited singalong-inducing hooks to spare. Their two gold albums and three Grammy Award nominations arrived without commercial compromise. Renowned for their unrelenting integrity and authenticity, whenever they have a chance to play it safe, this band chooses to challenge themselves instead.
|
|
|
Since its inception, the Florida group has redefined the balance between chaos and harmony with each release. Compositions born from creative tension transform into iconoclastic anthems. Even when they nearly implode, the crackling energy coalesces into something deeply resonant to millions.
|
|
|
Two decades after genre classics Define the Great Line and They’re Only Chasing Safety, the Underoath audience is more diverse, passionate, and devoted than ever. That reverence is a testament to the band’s resilience and unwavering commitment to their creative vision. In 2025, Spencer Chamberlain, Tim McTague, Aaron Gillespie, Chris Dudley, and Grant Brandell deliver a powerful new missive filled with emotional courage and unrivaled bombast called The Place After This One (MNRK Heavy).
|
|
|
“I’m proud of every record we’ve created and wholeheartedly stand behind all of them, but I haven’t felt this way about an album since Define the Great Line,” says Chamberlain, the band’s charismatic frontman since 2003. “I’ll never forget the feeling I had the first time we listened to that album together. Listening back to The Place After This One, every hair on my body stood on end again.”
|
|
|
Gillespie, who co-founded the group’s earliest incarnation as a teen, sees The Place After This One as the start of the next 20-year chapter. “The Underoath story is one of longevity,” notes the band’s drummer and co-vocalist. “We’ve had to tear it down to the ground to bring it back. We are in a place where we genuinely love and enjoy each other’s presence and making music together again.”
|
|
|
From “Writing On The Walls” to “Generation No Surrender,” the band’s songs and performances demonstrate undeniable power, whether on tour with contemporaries like Bring Me The Horizon, Papa Roach, Rise Against, and Alice In Chains, headlining (with supporting acts like Bad Omens and Spiritbox), or at international rock festivals. Collaborations with Bring Me The Horizon, Sleeping With Sirens, Ghostemane, Mitchell Tenpenny and Charlotte Sands further illustrate each member’s artistic diversity.
|
|
|
“I feel very fortunate about what we’ve built,” marvels McTague, the band’s guitarist since 2001. (Dudley joined in 2000; Brandell in 2002.) “We are more comfortable recognizing and a little bit awestruck by how our music has connected with people over the years, without getting complacent.”
|
|
|
They’re Only Chasing Safety (2004) was a watershed moment, influencing a generation of bands. Define the Great Line (2006) pushed the boundaries further, sharpening the dual vocal approach, heavy breakdowns, and atmospheric edge. It moved close to 100,000 copies in its first week alone.
|
|
|
The ambitiously experimental Lost in the Sound of Separation (2008) was another creative milestone. Alternative Press called it a “perfect record,” proclaiming the band “elevated themselves to a level of their own.” Ø (Disambiguation) (2008) delved deeper into emotional darkness without sacrificing memorable hooks. At times broody and menacing, it was the band’s last record before a long hiatus.
|
|
|
Erase Me (2018) reintroduced Underøath to the world with straightforward riffs and melodies. It’s an almost uplifting album, though not devoid of the confessional desperation powering their songs. The band described Voyeurist (2022) as “high-def violence.” Calling it “brilliantly unhinged,” Revolver placed it among the Top 25 Albums of 2022 alongside records by Slipknot, Ghost, and Meshuggah.
|
|
|
“Some bands will burn the candle at both ends chasing the past,” Aaron observes. “But what matters most to ours is that we can look at each other and know we made something awesome together.”
|
|
|
The group took multiple trips to a mountain cabin while writing what became their 2025 opus, enlisting Aaron’s friend, producer Danen Rector (Boys Like Girls, Charlotte Sands) during the process. “It’s perhaps a blessing and a curse that no matter what kind of song we try to make together, it’s going to sound like Underoath,” laughs McTague. “Once we start playing off each other, something happens. No matter how far we go off the beaten path, we always find Underoath at the center of it.”
|
|
|
Walking a creative tightrope between immersive access and isolationist otherness, Underøath owns the space between huge choruses and raw but innovative heaviness, both on record and onstage. The heart of their sound (confessional vulnerability delivered with thrilling force and cinematic grandiosity) can be heard in generations of bands that followed in their wake. And they refuse to stagnate. 2025’s The Place After This One is a provocative and inspiring work of outsider art.
|
|
|
“Whether other people get it or not ultimately doesn’t matter,” Spencer says confidently. “Because when I look at my band and see all of us moving around while listening to it, that feeling is priceless.”
