Underoath, August Burns Red, and Emery at The Rave/Eagles Ballroom
In most bands, the first member to get sacked is usually the drummer. But in Christian melodic hardcore band Underoath, the only original member left after a series of line-up changes is drummer-vocalist Aaron Gillespie. (The lesson: Jesus loves drummers.) The fact that Underoath still has any kind of following despite the departures of high-profile members like original vocalist Dallas Taylor (currently of Maylene And The Sons Of Disaster) must mean it really does have God on its side. Underoath has persevered and even thrived amid intra-band turmoil to release 2008’s Lost In The Sound Of Separation, which peaked at No. 8 on the Billboard charts.
