Underoath Have Released An Electrfying New Single For "Survivor's Guilt" As Spencer Chamberlain Crushes The Vocals
by aliencoremuzik
Underoath
While currently on tour celebrating the rest of their 20th Anniversary of their absolute masterpiece of an album "They're Only Chasing Safety", and after a swaggy new release of their single "Teeth" last month, Underoath again arrives to the spotlight with their electrifying new standalone single for "Survivor's Guilt" accompanied by a music video.
The lyrical content of the single dives into the guilt that frontman Spencer Chamberlain feels each day as a survivor of an addiction to drugs as he stated "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 guitarist Timothy McTague stated that ""We had the idea to shoot a music video for 'Survivor's Guilt', as we really think the song is special and it needed a proper visual representation to accompany it. We are on the longest tour of our lives and had no time before we left, so we decided to shoot one ourselves with our content creator, Jacob Moniz."
Looking to reincorporate their fan base into their new music, their latest release of "Survivor's Guilt" has become one of their favorites off the release as frontman Spencer Chamberlain would express "The song was really fun to work on. The chorus came from the first idea I threw out there. I love when a song has such a powerful feel to the music that the vocals come out completely naturally. It made the sad heaviness feel even more intense. We've also never had a song with this type of swing to it, which is hard to pull off without it feeling cheesy, but I love the way this one hits. I could probably say this about every song on the record, but this is one of my favorite UNDEROATH songs ever."
