With this searching then punch-finding single and a coveted place on the Give It A Name Tour, Floridans Underoath are set to continue America's stronghold on the expansive post-hardcore genre.
'Too Bright To See, Too Loud To Hear' - off last year's sixth studio album 'Lost in the Sound of Separation' - feeds off the profile given by striking drum reverbs, the edgy vocals of Spencer Chamberlain and the subsequent echoing then sniping backing.
Epic song-building and piles of feeling lends snap and intrigue to this expressive single, showing Underoath's bracing approach.
