Underlying Issues is the tenth full-length album by Eldritch, released in 2015 on Scarlet Records.

Reception

Rock Hard rated the album with 7 points out of 10.[1] The same percentage score (rendered as 3.5 out of 5) was given by Dangerdog Music Reviews. Underlying Issues contained an "abundance of riffage, powerful and relentless", taking a slight turn towards thrash metal. Vocalist Terence Holler was "the glue" that held the essential elements together.[2] Dead Rhetoric saw Holler's voice as having "a rare quality to his voice that puts him in unique company". Eldritch continued exploring "heavier/current pastures" with a tint of Annihilator, though they had also included "a little more Forbidden-oriented thrash bursts" on Gaia's Legacy. The score was 8.5.[3] Though Powermetal.de [de] gave a slightly lower score of 8, the reviewer called Underlying Issues a "truly outstanding" album. Eldritch was still marked by "Terence Holler's magnificent, expressive vocals and his melodies", but the lesser use of keyboards made the band "less stylistically outstanding".[4]
