I'm here from a Short of a POV of the drummer from I prevail live, which made me look up post-hardcore because music has been so heavily categorized these days. its hard to find the things that fit my likes, but other than that, yea I gotta say this is pretty dope for whatever however old it is.
33 years old and still listening to this! Brings me back to my high school days. This music is amazing! Wish we can go back to when this music was popular.
same. it was really astonishing how impressive the production, musical talent, and songwriting came together in such a unique new way from some of the more creative bands in this scene. post hardcore/screamo/emo had so many gems in the early-mid 00's, unlike a genre like nu metal or prog rock or hair metal, which has no redeeming quality/doesnt generally hold up to scrutiny once it ages
@christdolphin69 most definitely! This music here is also so much better than today's trashy ass music. I seriously don't understand how this died off. You know what's really funny. Growing up being in middle school and high school so through 2003 to 2009 I was more into the heavy metal scene. Didn't like screamo, emo, hard-core was okay. Now as an adult I absolutely love hard-core, emo and screamo. It's actually more nostalgic to me than anything. It's the music that really gets me missing the past and wishing today was still like the early 2000's.
Same im 30 and no one i know listens to this genre a couple old friends who used to dont anymore and have even changed their whole personalities to mimic everyone else now a days im guessing so they can fit in more, alot of people say that this was just their emo phase and are shocked that im still "stuck" in emo phase, but i listen to all kinds of music and just appreciate good lyrics and music to go along with it, theres alot more talent in this genre then todays music anyway
@@janet-qq2rf lets analyse the lies which are world wide believed: lie: schools are of use (fact. schools keep slavery alive and stands for dumbing down the population of mankind) lie: moon and mars landings, (fact: even masons know they cannot leave - earth is closed system, unless you want to drown, there is no other place created for us to live in.) lie: news channels share truth (fact: these are for politic propaganda) lie: voting matters (fact: politic propaganda) lie: money has a value of its own (fact: it is just a tool of this world, which value has been agreed upon world wide) lie: NASA lies (globe and all....)

(fact: mankind is not hybrid kind) to keep stating that there was an evolution, then we ain´t humans, we aint then mankind, we are then hybrids. Are you a hybrid? Lie: holidays (xmas, Halloween, new year eve and so on) (fact: PAGAN HOLIDAYS, to praise BAAL, the god of this world) lie: U.F.Os (fact: they are demons/evil spirits in high places, against whom we fight daily = spiritual warfare) lie: rules and laws rule the world (fact: signs and symbols of masonry do) lie: believe in being educated (fact: found daily living with the lack of knowledge) lie: religions are ways to heaven (fact: JESUS CHRIST is only way to heaven.

We, humans, come from GOD and return back to HIM and all the stories of having been seen a ghost - terrifying, scary, dark, cold - again no job of analysing been done here by you- right?) Lie: Humans have no immune system and we need vaccines as these save lives (fact: humans HAVE IMMUNE SYSTEM and vaccines are created for one or two purpose: to kill or to cripple) lie: there is no GOD (fact: There is GOD, who redeems sinners and we are directly created by GOD, Psalms 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.) to keep claiming that there is no GOD and we aint created directly from the dust of the earth, we soon run out logic, regardless to we place “evolution” in our claims or not.) lie: 911 was terror attack (fact: 911 was an inside job, meaning the work of your loved government) 17 lies, should i go on?
Listening to this music is so nostalgic in such a heart breaking way. I used to struggle so much in middle and high school with depression. Being 30 still depressed sucks. I’ve come such a long way and still no where at all lol. Underoath has literally saved my life more than one time with their music. Still holding me down over a decade later.
28 and It’s still so good. I used to put my headphones in and listen to their albums on repeat when I was 14. Idk if I’ve ever had a bigger emotional connection to another band
It’s almost a bittersweet feeling seeing all my age group people coming back to this song only to reminisce the good ol days of when music was there for us in a broken home, keep on keeping on y’all
I remember being 14 in 2007 and I would watch this music video so much, so I recorded the song on my phone and would listen to it on repeat on my walks home from school.
Just discovered this song and band. So much raw emotion. The gritty growls blended with clean melody, the drum fills, guitar arrangement- absolute masterpiece
One of the first band i really loved when i was a teen, i remember watching the clip some evening on mtv at 11pm in 2006 and thats where i felt in love with this band. I was really enjoying the clip thinking it was damn cool and really artistic, i was like 13 years old , a couple of days later i was listening to my copy of Define The Great Line on my cd player and destroying my neck. Now at 27, having a better comprehension of the english language (im french), and a more mature set of eyes, i am seeing an incredible and truly well-crafted representation about the life and death of an anxiety attack (also a larger spectrum of mental disorders that goes along in the same basket). It seems to also underline the personal relationship of the writer with the subject. It sounds so personal and deep just like a confession. I'm still pretty sure the song can still be interpreted in some other ways since it is a song and it can go in many ways depending of the listener. In the end that song is a masterpiece in itself and the videoclip is adding a visual substance that makes it even more undeniable.
First time I heard this was when I was in 5th grade from my older brother Sebastian. I'm 22 now man. This stuff is the shit. I hold so many memories on the bus and at school to this shit.
I wish that 02:39 groove would last forever. if it was a place, I'd love to live in it. if it was a person I'd marry it. God that groove and melodic interlude is fucking blissful.
I can still remember.. It's summer break of 2006 and its almost 5AM.. ive been up all night texting my first GF and playing Runescape, listening to this on MTV... Now im married to her and still playing runescape and listening to this song in 2024. The Universe is insane lol.
It's called God. "The Universe", first of all, doesn't even exist. It's cartoons for adults. Even if it did, God controls things and has put you where you live so you'd grow up and meet your wife.
The opening to this song takes me back to emo days with MySpace , hanging with friends having wild house parties to this type of music ,, I miss it , just plain enjoying life. What a time to be alive 16 then 33 now
LYRICS : Maybe we, why don't we Sit right here for half an hour? We'll speak of what a waste I am And how we missed your beat again I swear we need to find some comfort In this run down place To bridge the gap of this conscious state That we live in I'm short on time How come you try? That brings us home To fit the shape of And I pray for What they tell you You to move on, move on (but mostly what they show you) At this rate we can't keep up but I sure I'm taking back all the things I said I'm taking back all the things I said But I sure can't just sit still Keep me filled in, I swear I'll come We walk alone We walk alone We walk alone We walk alone We walk alone We walk alone Back home Alone back home You're almost gone and I'm okay I still see your shadow To give you time to be afraid But never your face again I remember your presence I hope to God you come down I hope to God you feel this now I hope to God you come down I hope to God I know there must be some way out of here And all of them will be waiting there
Ez. If you want to talk about heavy it has it. If you want to talk about songwriting at its finest it's here. If u want to talk about riffs and how they arent related its here. Wake up
Things will never be the same , miss listening to this and long hours on runescape ....no worries in the world . Now I'm just depressed waiting on my time to pass to the next life
@Adrian I'm happy for you preaching the good word but in all honesty there isn't any proof god ever existed. I was raised Christian and personally I can appreciate the teachings the bible gives. However like I said earlier there isn't any proof god exists, and to you comment asking why I'm still alive. The only reason I'm still alive is because I haven't died from a disease or killed myself.
Maybe we, why don't we sit right here for half an hour? We'll speak of what a waste I am And how we missed your beat again! I swear we need to find some comfort in this run down place To bridge the gap of this conscious state that we live in And I'm short on time How come you try (That brings us home) And fit the shape of (And I, pray for) What they tell you (you to move on, move on) But mostly what they show you At this rate, we can't keep up I'm taking back all the things I said Thinking back all the things I said But I sure just can't, just sit still Keep me filled in, I swear I'll come We walk alone, we-walk-a-lone We walk alone, we-walk-a-lone We walk alone, we-walk-a-lone Back home, alone, back home You're almost gone and I'm ok I still see your shadow To give you time to be afraid But never, your face again I remember, your presence I hope to God you come down I hope to God you feel this now I hope to, god you come down I hope to, (God) I know there must be some way out of here And all of them will be waiting there
You sound super cool! Keep being you! 29 year-old college professor here! These freshmen I teach don't even know this music existed, let alone know that I blare it in the car to and from work! It makes me happy to know we're still out here jamming to one of the best eras in music (in my opinion).
I listened to tons of underoath during the darkest time of my life, so my stupid self ruined a couple of their songs because sad memories flood in. I still love the hell out of this song and band. ❤️
Michelle Carter you are so right! Their music is so emotional and they were the background music to my divorce years ago and I can't help but feel a twinge deep down when I hear them!
Chiodos and from first to last were way ahead of their times back in 2005. Those were the actual legit definition of post hardcore screamo bands. The constant shouting out of tune style of singing, only bands to ever turn it into solid art in my opinion
This song has stood the test of time. Such a good song and video. It's aged very well, I can still watch it over 15 years later and enjoy every aspect of it.
This shit still slaps just as hard as it did when it was new. Heard it when I was like 14 or 15 years-old and it just broaden my musical horizon so much. It was such an instrumental part of me being a teen. Finding shit like this at such a pivotal point directed me down a path I'm really proud of today👌🏼
Define the Great Line will forever be one of the best hardcore albums of the 2000’s.. incredible feeling come flooding back when listening to this. I can hear new things in the mixes now that I’m older. Forever grateful for this album.
One of the most emotional and intense songs in existence. I can feel this as I listen to it I don't know why but it tears me up each time just the sheer anguish. Aside from that aspect it's brilliant also,.perfect vocals and mix of synthesizer and bass
this band has and will always hold a place in my existence. like many others since and before, this music is still, to this day the only kind of music that's strikes me with so much emotion within a 3-5 minute time span. Unexplainable, and so amazing.
I am back here today, to say I got UNDEROATH tattooed on my stomach. I wanted to get it tattooed in the most painful spot and I love it and still love this band.
Maybe we, why don't we Sit right here for half an hour? We'll speak of what a waste I am And how we missed your beat again I swear we need to find some comfort in this run down place To bridge the gap of this conscious state that we live in And I'm short on time How come you try (that brings us home) To fit the shape of (and I pray for) What they tell you? (You to move on, move on) But mostly what they show you I'm taking back all the things I've said I'm taking back all the things I've said (But I sure can't just sit still) Keep me filled in, and I swear I'll come We walk alone, we walk alone We walk alone, we walk alone We walk alone, we walk alone Back home, alone, back home You're almost gone and I'm okay (I still see your shadow) To give you time to be afraid (But never your face) (I still, I remember your presence) I hope to God you come down I hope to God you feel this now I hope to God you come down I hope to God I know there must be some way out of here And all of them will be waiting there
I don’t think they realized the power of their lyrics. This album came out in 06 and I still hear their lyrics in my head when I’m going through a tough time
I always find myself returning to listen to this. This band holds such a special place in my heart. I listened to Underoath heavily during a traumatizing time in my life, so of course I associate some of their songs with some sad memories...but their music is actual art. Timeless. Soundtrack to my teenage heartache and angst.
I remember being 14, watching Fuse, and this video came on. At first I was terrified but then the more I listened to it and that’s how I became an emo, post hardcore, metalcore, whatever you want to call it.
I discovered this song in 2020 right before I went to a psych ward for really bad anxiety attacks. I met my now fiancé there. We became friends when I left but I wanted more. I never knew if I was going to see him again, and to keep him in my memory, I listened to this song nonstop. I am so thankful we met and although we are both not the most mentally stable, our love is unmatched.
I'm 30 and I still listen to UNDEROATH especially this song. Soooo many memories from high school and the dumb and fun stuff we did! Miss the old times!
Your fully incorrect here pal. The talent this band posseses and the love for underoath by the fans is what keeps this popular! I feel like your slacking, why haven't you been listening to underoath this whole time?!?!
Same here! Just saw Aaron (one of my top favorite vocalists) on tour as The Almost with Emery (my two other favorite vocalists.) Been listening to both for 20 years! Never gets old.
These guys and Chiodos were just nonstop on the ole iPod back in the scene life…I loved every single song, and that the drummer was such a dope lead singer which just never happens. And most gingers aren’t super sexy either. This guy. Such an anomaly…..
i don't really care for underoath, but it was the first live show I ever went to. they put on an amazing show. eleven year old me couldn't believe the whole venue singing along to this song. beautiful experience!
I remember hearing this back in 2006 for the first time in hot topic. Dude Steve was like "bro have you heard the new underoath album" after I just got done listening to the sample track on those big ass headphones off to the side. I said no not yet Steve went and put the whole album on the main speakers and blew the shoes off the whole store.. ALWAYS. REMEMBER. STEVE.
Been following this band since Dallas was their vocalist. I remember days in middle and high school, laying on my bed listening to their music on really bad days. Honestly helped me through so much. Thank you guys.
