Underoath release new song ‘Pneumonia’

UNDEROATH have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Pneumonia, is taken from the metalcore band’s upcoming new album, Voyeurist, which is scheduled to be released in January next year. The new song intends to be a sonic and lyrical voyage through death, partly inspired by the passing of guitarist Tim McTague’s father.

Speaking on the writing process for the new song, McTague elaborates, “we started writing the song, randomly, on the anniversary of my dad’s death, and to release it exactly a year from that day is wild. I was in a funk and wanted to make something sad but felt drained. The song ended up becoming an audible journey of death and is called Pneumonia because that is what was listed on my dad’s death certificate. It’s also the only song in the history of the band that Spencer and Aaron sat someone down and asked them (me) to help write some of the lyrics, which was truly an honor.”

Voyeurist is set for release on January 14th via Fearless Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
