Review: Originally released in 2004 and now celebrating its 20th anniversary, They're Only Seeking Safety would serve as the fourth full-length and pivotal second chapter for Floridian Christian post-hardcore outfit Underoath, who underwent a massive lineup shift following the release of 2002's ironically titled The Changing Of Times, which would ultimately be their final project with original vocalist Dallas Taylor (before leaving to form Maylene & The Sons Of Disaster). Enlisting Spencer Chamberlain as their new frontman (a role he still holds today) and expanding the vocal presence of drummer Aaron Gillespie to offset Chamberlain's feral shrieks, the band would inadvertently stumble onto their newfound balancing act of gelling the differing forms of screamo, emo, hardcore punk and metalcore into one unique, encompassing and surprisingly accessible style. Certified Gold in the US since 2011, which within the realms of metal and hardcore is no easy feat, the LP now holds an elevated position of genre staple.
