Hear Underoath’s ripping new song “Generation No Surrender”

Underoath have been busy most of the fall celebrating their 2004 classic, They’re Only Chasing Safety, on an anniversary tour. The post-hardcore vets have also found time to drip out new songs, though, including today’s “Generation No Surrender.”

Underoath seem to be getting progressively heavier with each single this year — to that end, “Generation No Surrender” blasts out the barracks with D-beated fury and Spencer Chamberlain’s especially aggressive screaming voice. Thematically, the vocalist taps into a confounded existential malaise, asking, “What the fuck do we do here?” as we collectively watch the world burn.

“We wanted to write a song that would be a ripper live — something that moves an entire room, something we can all get behind and relate to,” Chamberlain explains. “This song is written from the perspective that, if ‘they’ told us the world was ending and the apocalypse was upon us, we wouldn’t be surprised — nor would we run from it. I think we’d face that battle head-on. I feel like we’ve reached a point in our lives where nothing surprises us anymore. We’ve all seen and been through a lot of shit, and I fear we’re never told the truth. That pisses me off. I’m sure it pisses all of us off, which is why I feel like we are all ‘Generation No Surrender.’ It’s not just about age — it’s about all of us.”

Though the details on a forthcoming album release have yet to be delivered in full, “Generation No Surrender” arrives in the lead-up toward Underoath’s next full-length, which is expected to arrive sometime in 2025 via MNRK Heavy.

The band also have a packed tour schedule lined up between now and next fall. See their tour routing, video for “Generation No Surrender,” and a live clip below.
