5.0 out of 5 stars Underoath's Most Expressive Albeit Least Mainstream Album, September 8, 2008

By	Media Lover - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lost in the Sound Of Separation (CD/DVD) (Audio CD)

LITSOS is, in my opinion, the album that has been hiding in the deepest chambers of Underoath's hearts since their formation as a band. Furious, tender, hideous, beautiful, Underoath explores the addictive, aggressive and sinful nature of man and how it relates to the beauty of our redemption. I'm not going to lie, sometimes (as is the case with "Emergency Broadcast") this album gets flat ugly. It pounds and yells and bashes right through every one of your comfort zones, but at the end of the album, as the final song drifts away, you see the true scope of this album. "I swear I found something good... I found God and the dreams of the believers."

And so, LITSOS, while not even half as poppy as "TOCS" or hard rock as "DGL" transcends each of them in it's own deeply soulful way. (Although, DGL may still be the best bet for the hard rock/metalcore fans.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Best one yet., October 3, 2008

By	Mandy Karr (Port Royal, SC USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Let me start off with saying that I've been a big fan of Underoath ever since they hit the music industry. Let me also say that if a band I really like doesn't live up to expectations, I'll say so.

This is the most well written (musically) album they have ever done. They just keep getting better and better. When I fist bought Define the Great Line, the album they did before, I was first surprised because, unlike alot of popular heavy metal bands, they got harder musically rather than softer. This is something I like, and also shows that the band is staying true to the beginning, to why they fell in love with playing heavy metal in the first place. Then I bought Lost in the Sound of Separation, and had preconceived notions that it would be mediocre at best. I left it in the case for a few days in my car, and then one the way to work one day I put it in my cd player. Not only was it better than mediocre, they had gotten even harder than the last one! It was refreshing to see a band really mature and develop without losing what I loved about them in the first place.

Lyrically, it's a little muddy and vague, but that's the style of alot of bands in this genre. I enjoyed the message that this album had to bring. It's about pain, hope, doubt, and all of the things that make us human.


I hope that Underoath keeps up with the amazing work.

5.0 out of 5 stars A masterpiece, October 21, 2008

By	Marie Espinoza - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This CD is one of the fullest CD's I have heard probably all year. I find myself listening to this CD over and over again, and not ever getting sick of it. One of my favorite aspects of this CD is how each song runs into the next, yet every song has it's own originality. GET THIS CD! It is amazing. You will not be disappointed!
