UNDEROATH Shares Live Video of "It's Dangerous Business Walking Out Your Front Door"
The footage captures the band performing the 2004 track during a main stage set at the festival.
Underoath has shared a live video of 'It's Dangerous Business Walking Out Your Front Door', from their 2004 album They're Only Chasing Safety. The performance was captured earlier this summer at the Vans Warped Tour in Long Beach, where Underoath took to the festival's main stage for a set of fan favorites.
On the performance video, Chris Dudley shares: 'We were on Warped when They're Only Chasing Safety came out. This album and this song were born here. Playing Dangerous Business at Warped will always be a highlight for us.'
Underoath will return to Vans Warped Tour next month at the Mexico City date, following their performances in Washington, DC and Long Beach, CA earlier this summer. They also played some of their most intimate shows in decades around the Festival on the Van Tour To Vans Warped Tour, presented by Vans. The historic run hit independent venues around the country with support from special guests Held.
Fans can catch Underoath this fall at Louder Than Life Festival, Four Chord Music Festival, Furnace Festival, Aftershock Festival, and Sick New World Festival before they kick off their celebratory Define The Great Line 20th Anniversary Tour. For this commemorative run, Underoath recruited long-time friends August Burns Red, Atreyu, As Cities Burn, and Emery – bands who have been there since the beginning. They look forward to celebrating not just decades of comradery, but also how far they have all come as August Burns Red, As Cities Burn, and Emery prepare to release new music.

About Underoath
UNDEROATH reinvents the balance between chaos and harmony with each successive release. Their compositions, conjured from creative tension, become iconoclastic anthems. Even when the band almost combusts, the crackling energy coalesces into something deeply resonant for millions. Each time they have a chance to do something safe, Underoath challenges themselves instead, with integrity and attitude. Their pair of gold albums and three Grammy nominations stand in stark defiance of the idea of commercial compromise. The Underoath catalog weaponizes noise, aggression, and ambiance as skillfully as melody. The passion and power are as undeniable on tours with Alice In Chains or Bring Me The Horizon as they are in the sweatiest of intimate shows or their genre-redefining runs on Vans Warped Tour.
This year the band celebrates 20 years of their album Define The Great Line. Coming on the heels of 2004's They're Only Chasing Safety, Define The Great Line saw Underoath pivoting towards a more aggressive sound. The record's unconventional – and, at times, jarring – intensity served as a stark contrast to the pop-leaning trends that were taking over heavy music at the time. Featuring fan favorites like 'Writing On The Walls', 'In Regards To Myself', and 'You're Ever So Inviting', Define the Great Line defied expectations when it debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. It is widely regarded as one of the definitive heavy records of the early 2000s, solidifying Underoath's legacy as one most influential bands of the genre.
The heart of their sound, which delivers naked vulnerability with thrilling force and cinematic lushness, can be heard in generations of bands who've pursued their trail. But Underoath refuses to sit still. Walking an artistic tightrope between immersive access and isolationist otherness, Underoath owns the space between huge choruses and forward-thinking heaviness, both on record and onstage.
