I'm checking out that first Underoath album, and it's a bit similar, but Arkangel have them beat hands down as far as intensity. Honestly, bands with this kind of sound seem to have been a dime a dozen in the late-nineties/early-00s, and this isn't really impressing me that much. Vocalist is a bit crap, band's too tepid, and too much mid-paced chugging. If I'm gonna listen to that much mid-paced breakdowns, then I'll stick to Poison the Well's first album. Check out Kickback or Reprisal for a better version of what Underoath seem to be doing on Act of Depression.
