Comparing Underoath to AX7 is like saying who would win in a fight between Chuck Norris and a sixth grade child. AX7 is butt rock written for hot topic customers who want to do metal but can’t quite find the grasp for it. Or have some hang-ups about the fact that it is rooted in biblical context. Underoath’s album “They’re only changing safety” altered my whole perception on the hardcore genre where as the only thing that any AX7 album has ever done is strain me on playing their song on guitar hero. Underoath would wipe the floor with them, have a light snack, and then spend the rest of the day wondering how in the world they were even possibly roped into such an unquestionable battle. Underoath wins. Sevenfold.

City of Evil is the most laziest written/played/recorded album i have heard in recent memory. The only thing worth a play on that piece of shit is “Blinded in Chains” for the drumming. I dont seem how the older fans could still be interested in them after waking the fallen. ive seen and heard kids say Beast in the Harlot is a masterpiece? hah! that song is boring.
I wouldnt go as far as to say they have a masterpiece but the best shit they put out would have to be Remenissions,Desecrate Through Reverance, SecondHeartbeat(non album version), and Turn the other Way. Just so weird to me how one of my favorite bands at the timem could suck ass. They should of had shadows girlfriend do lyrics for them now on.

They’re definitely not sellouts. They just didn’t do what everyone wanted. They wanted to evolve, not do the same thing over and over again as many metal bands do. City of Evil was an astounding record. They do what they want to do musically, and they haven’t changed for record companies or anything other than their own desire to advance musically.

underoath shouldnt even compare themselves to avenged sevenfold, avenged sevenfold beats them. all underoath does is play a shit load of semitones and all their songs sound the same. avenged sevenfold’s guitar parts are kind of lame sometimes, but yeah he can really play faster than a ton of guitarists. underoath is just jealous and they are a christian metal band so they should shut up about whats hardcore =P

A7X pales in comparison to Underoath in every aspect except their guitar work. Underoath isn’t meant to be a shredding, guitar-riff kinda band. What Underoath is meant to do is invoke passion and awe in the listener, which is something they still to do me thousands of plays later.

And where do you guys get emo from?

^^ if anything at all, they look disheveled and almost destitute.

I hold Underoath as close to my heart as anything in this world. It takes a lot for a band to do that, something that is unprecedented in this world, something that A7X could never hope to achieve.

“Underoath was doing just fine at Mayhem Festival last year until the lead singer said “We’re here in the name of Jesus Christ”. After that the energy deflated”

AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I think to compare one to the other is a little ridiculous. Opinions are dependent on taste and how can you compare bands that have two different styles of song-writing and really are not even the same sub-genre of metal. Let’s compare Protest the Hero(current obsession) with Tool. Both progressive metal bands, but on the opposite spectrums of a sub-genre.
To say that either bands lyrics are generic is debatable. Avenged has some generic metal core lines, but Underoath does have some generic religious lines, and “deep” topics are reused often. (but really, what the hell hasn’t been done before?)
They are both different styles of song writing, but you could say that either band is repetitious in what they do and rely on a cookie-cutter recipe.
Chops speaking, Syn is far more proficient than anyone else involved. But in the same regard, Avenged’s collective vocal ability does not have the range of Underoath’s.
The bands both differ in vocal and guitar styles though, so again, a real comparison is impossible.
Both bands rely on gimmicks and specific “looks” that really aren’t for me.
I personally think Avenged puts on a better show, but Underoath was nothing to scoff at.

I do believe that Tim was completely out of line trashing another band. Even if your not particularly fond of someone, it’s really no excuse to have the lack of decency and respect for a fellow musician to trash what they do. Especially coming from someone who believes what he claims to believe. Pretty fucked up.

I like both bands, doesn’t really which I prefer. Honestly, we’re fucking metal heads, we pride ourselves on our unswayable opinions.

Keep it fuckin’ metal.
