Underoath have become legends in the world of metalcore, having solid over 1.3 million albums with two RIAA-Certified Gold albums. The band became known for those Gold albums, 2004’s “They’re Only Chasing Safety” and 2006’s “Define The Great Line”.” These albums were monumental in developing metalcore into what it is today.
What many fans don’t know is that these two fantastic albums were Underoath‘s fourth and fifth albums! Their Solid State /Tooth & Nail Records debut “The Changing of Times” was actually their third full-length record.
On July 4, 1999, Underoath released their debut album “Act of Depression” on Takehold Records. Exactly a year later on July 4, 2000, the band released their second album “Cries of the Past”. These two records, out of print for years, are the foundation of the influence that Underoath would turn out to be.
Underoath has now rereleased “Act of Depression” and “Cries of the Past” so that fans can complete their Underoath album collections! You can pick up your copy at iTunes, or at your local Best Buy or independent record store.
