SMS: UnderOATH - "It's Dangerous Business"

“It’s Dangerous Business Walking Out Your Front Door” by UnderOATH

I’m going into my fourth summer with this song, with this album, and I will never forget the first time I heard it. I was thirteen years old and had just purchased the Warped Tour 2005 compilation. As I was sitting in my room, reading a book, a song came through the speaker of my CD player and I was blown away. I looked at the back of the CD case and scrolled to the number of the song. “It’s Dangerous Business Walking Out Your Front Door,” was what it was called. The name of the band? UnderOath. I had to know everything about this band, immediately. Their songs, their albums, upcoming music. I had to know. A few summers has passed and this band has yet to move from top spot of my favorite bands. I’m very proud of how far they’ve come and the struggles they’ve overcome and have began to reveal through their lyrics. I’m proud to call those six men my heroes, my favorite, because it’s absolutely true.
