According to both our sources at Kill The Music and multiple venue date listings online (you can find those below), Underoath will be play TOCS/DTGL front to back each night on tour, next March/April. The story, which originally broke here, is the first news we’ve heard from the band in a while. The band is also confirmed to be playing So What Music Festival, along with Beartooth and The Devil Wears Prada. The tour hasn’t been officially released by the band yet, but it’s clear they’re not reforming just to play one or two more shows.
The band teased us the last few weeks with various posts on social media, before officially revealing that “the hiatus is off” in August.
Edit: According to a recent press release, tour routing is now official. Full details below.
Underoath, who recently confirmed two reunion shows at the 2016 Self Help Festival and South By So What, have announced a North American tour. Dubbed the Rebirth Tour, the band will be playing the albums They’re Only Chasing Safety and Define The Great Line in their entirety.
“I think the thought of Underoath playing again seemed really exciting,” explains Tim McTague of the band’s reunion. “We never thought we’d ever even want to play together again, much less be as excited to do so. It was a really cool feeling, and when discussing what this tour could be, it just felt right to play the two albums that our fans have held dearly for so many years. I think it’s going to be really special.”
“I hated the idea of Underoath being ‘over’ and I’m not sure what we are, but we are all friends again and that’s really the most important thing,” said Spencer Chamberlain. “That being said, we felt like now is a great time to do a tour and celebrate Define The Great Line turning ten.”
