Underoath confirm release of ‘Erase Me’

After days of dropping cryptic clues, Underoath have finally given fans what they’ve been waiting for: answers. On Thursday (Feb. 22), the Florida-founded band announced the release of their sixth studio album, Erase Me. The new album, the follow-up to 2010’s Ø (Disambiguation), is set to be released on April 6 through Fearless Records.

The record was produced by Matt Squire (Panic! at the Disco, 3OH!32) who, like the rest of the band members, posted a cryptic message earlier in the day before the new album announcement was made. Pre-orders for the Erase Me are currently available on the band’s website here.

In addition to confirming the release of the new record, Underoath also unleashed the album’s lead single, “On My Teeth.” The over-four-minute clips begins with the band talking about how they were surprised that they were able to keep the new album a secret all this time especially since we are part of generation where everything is posted on social media.
