20. Casting Such a Thin Shadow (Define the Great Line, 2006)
“They are melodic and heavy which are two qualities that I appreciate together. It seems to be difficult to make that composition without compromising the quality of music.”
19. Everyone Looks So Good from Here (Define the Great Line, 2006)
“Lyrically, this is another bust for the metal elitist, but I honestly believe the lyrics to be good. They’re not poetic by any means, but they are an expression of emotion in the best way a hardcore band can do.”
18. Anyone Can Dig a Hole but It Takes a Real Man to Call It Home (Lost in the Sound of Separation, 2008)
“You guys need to hear this song, but the core of this song is in the intro.I suggest this song if you are feeling down”
17. We are the Involuntary (Lost in the Sound of Separation, 2008)
“The beginning is just so badass. You first hear some techno stuff in the beginning then BOOM! It is really an epic song”

16. A Moment Suspended in Time (Define The Great Line, 2006)
“One of Underoath’s Heaviest songs and it has such deep and emotional lyrics. If you got the genre of hardcore, with its untamed and often boring and repetitive anger, then tempered it with artistry, you’d create something like this.”
15. There Could Be Nothing After This (Define the Great Line, 2006)
“”There Could Be Nothing After This”, rough in the beginning, as on lyrics there’s only Spencer, the chorus brings them both, and the last 30 seconds of the song have only keyboards.”
14. The Only Survivor Was Miraculously Unharmed (Lost in the Sound of Separation, 2008)
“The only song that truly fits what Underoath had described before the album came out is “The Only Survivor Was Miraculously Unharmed”, a crushing song that actually shows a true sense of catharsis to Underoath’s music, as it transforms from a heavy blast of older-Underoath inspired metalcore (while containing the albums centerpiece moment, as Spencer howls “They just spin in perfect little circles, its all that they do” as an ‘epic’ guitar line accompanies it) into Aaron singing along with Spencer in a tension building segment that just simply ends.”
13. Moving for the Sake of Motion (Define the Great Line, 2006)
“In my opinion their all around best song ever everything clicked with this song Aarons drumming perfectly matched and even raised the emotion in this song and Spencers vocals provided that unique Underoath energy throughout the whole song this is truly an Underoath masterpiece”
12. When the Sun Sleeps (The Changing of Times, 2002)
“Music is slowly but combined with an energetic scream. I never find a song like it, it’s amazing! Easily Underoath’s Heaviest Song.”
11. A Fault Line, a Fault of Mine (Lost in the Sound of Separation, 2008)
“I stare at the wall watching my time float away. It’s all been a blur and nothing will change.” Chills, Just chills. I’ve got to say this is hands down my favorite part of any Underoath song. If you don’t agree I strongly urge you to revisit.
10. It’s Dangerous Business Walking Out Your Front Door (They’re Only Chasing Safety, 2004)
“This is definitely the best song I’ve heard from this band or any other band for that matter. It’s hard not to listen to this and not be inspired. From great screams to amazing vocals, this song never gets old!”
9. I’m Content with Losing (They’re Only Chasing Safety, 2004)
“Witch auto-manically hook listeners in with Spenser’s screaming and Arron’s singing. Like most songs on the album, the chorus is singing with a slight bit of screaming. With a screamed hook. The lyrics right before the second chorus should energize Listeners with a soft then screamed “are you ready? “(with a yeah screamed after the second). The beast is at the end when Spencer winds up and then Arron’s two Chorus verses go off at the same time with Spencer screaming “from me”with the close up is Arron’s two chorus lines at the same time, only without instrument in the background and Spenser’s screaming.”
8. Desperate Times, Desperate Measures (Lost in the Sound of Separation, 2008)
“I often see this song regarded as one of the best in the post-hardcore genre. It’s so much different from their other songs yet so unique. This is the best song from their best album undoubtedly.”
7. Reinventing Your Exit (They’re Only Chasing Safety, 2004)
“Not only their best song but one of the best songs of all time for me. It stands out so much compared to all their other songs, very unique, simple, effective. I can listen to this on repeat for hours and never get tired of it. “UP AGAINST THE WALL, UP AGAINST THE WALL.””

6. Breathing in a New Mentality (Lost in the Sound of Separation, 2008)
“One of their heavier songs. The part at 1:22 is so freaking heavy. Pure epicness. Very emotionally packed song. Amazing.”
5. You’re Ever So Inviting (Define the Great Line, 2006)
“This song is one of their best. The lyrics are very sincere and relate to a lot of people. One of their best songs in my opinion.”
4. In Regards to Myself (Define the Great Line, 2006)
“I think this song was one of the best defining moments that made Underoath what they are today. Even though they are breaking up, this song will forever be one of their best legacies, as well as many others.”
3. Too Bright to See, Too Loud to Hear (Lost in the Sound of Separation, 2008)
“So epic. I can literally worship to this song. It builds so beautifully, and spencer and aaron sound terrific. So calm and inviting. When the breakdown starts its glorious and full of emotion”
2. Writing on the Walls (Define the Great Line, 2006)
“Aaron’s cleans mixed with Spencer’s screams is the perfect vocal combination on this track. Definitely a classic. So much meaning, and Spence’s growls at the bridge are amazing.”
1. A Boy Brushed Red Living in Black and White (They’re Only Chasing Safety, 2004)
“Listened to this song yet doesn’t really know anything about this band. And by the way Breathing in a new mentality shouldn’t be at the top. That position should be occupied by this song.”
