Underoath has added new music to their catalog with their latest track “Survivor’s Guilt”.
According to the Florida metalcore band’s vocalist Spencer Chamberlain, the song drew inspiration from his past battles with substance abuse.
Chamberlain said of the new track:
“I feel this heavy guilt about making it out alive when so many of my friends didn’t. There have been many times during my recovery when I’ve felt guilty, and that’s a mindfuck in itself, but it’s a real feeling. The opening line explains it pretty bluntly. I’ve been off drugs for seven years, and I’ve lost eight friends in 2023 alone to the same demon I was entangled with.
“It’s a heavy feeling to bear because it’s not like you’re better than anyone else out there–you literally just got lucky. I got my shit together before it was too late and I’m grateful for every single day i wake up now, especially because there was a time when I wasn’t sure I would.”
Underoath is currently on their 20th anniversary tour for their fourth studio album, “They’re Only Chasing Safety”. The tour will run until the end of December.
