incorporated other influences including post-metal guitar leads on several tracks and ambient electronica on tracks such as "Salmarnir." AllMusic stated that the band found the "delicate middle ground between throat-shredding grindcore and My Chemical Romance/From Autumn to Ashes-style emo-punk," and Cross Rhythms described the album as "an impressively versatile project where metal riffs and emo breakdowns, screamo noise and memorable hooks collide in a veritable sonic feast." Underoath's sixth album, Lost in the Sound of Separation, established Spencer Chamberlain as the band's frontman and saw the band incorporating some industrial elements. With the departure of the last original member of Underoath, Aaron Gillespie, the band underwent their "biggest shift in sound for the band in a long time." Ø (Disambiguation) featured a darker and more immersive approach than their previous albums, and used a heavy atmospheric and ambient sound and also utilized groove sections on some tracks. Erase Me, the band's comeback album, saw more of an emphasis on alternative rock. Influences Underoath's stated influences have included Refused, At the Drive-In, Jimmy Eat World, Radiohead and Isis, with guitarist Timothy McTague describing At the Drive-In in particular as "probably one of the biggest influences" on the band. With the departure of Dallas Taylor following The Changing of Times, an album that foreshadowed the changes to come for the band, the group's style took a new direction courtesy of new vocalist Spencer Chamberlain. Beginning with They're Only Chasing Safety, the writing dynamic changed in the band, as Chamberlain and drummer/vocalist Aaron Gillespie now wrote all the lyrics they sang. On Define the Great Line, Chamberlain noted that his vocals now sounded less like an imitation of Taylor and more like the vocals of his previous band, This Runs Through. Alternative Press wrote of the album, "[Chamberlain's] bellow [is] more carnal and guttural, [and] his high end more tuneful than whiny."
