The band has released a split EP with Grace & Thieves, and a full-length album, titled, ''A Human Comedy '' which debuted No. 10 on Seth Werkheiser's Top 10 of 2014.{{cite web|url=https://www.metalinsider.net/lists/seth-werkheisers-top-10-of-2014|title=Seth Werkheiser's Top 10 of 2014|publisher=Metal Insider|first=Seth|last=Werkheiser|date=December 15, 2014|accessdate=October 10, 2015}} ==History== Formed in 2007, Unteachers is the musical brainchild of Stephen Mark Sarro (Tantrum Of The Muse) The first official line-up consisted of bassist Brian Denny, drummer Thom Lambert (Good Clean Fun), and keyboardist Seth Luzier. The band recorded an EP of Tantrum Of The Muse reworked songs, and a demo for the new Unteachers material with this line up. In 2009 Stephen was briefly joined by Rick Wise (Tantrum Of The Muse) and together they recorded Fill This Place With Blood and Fear Of Silence for a 7-inch. Soon after recording the 2 songs, Rick left the band. Travis Turner, ([Aletheian](/source/Aletheian) and [Solamors](/source/Solamors)) joined in 2009. The duo recorded drums for the split 7-inch with Grace & Thieves, which was released via Veritas Vinyl. In 2012, bassist Josh Kale joined the band. Between 2012 - 2014 the band recorded the first full-length album. In 2014, the band released ''A Human Comedy'' shortly after the release of the album, this line up was disbanded. In 2017 Rick Wise joined the band again, in addition to Keith Scotten (bass) but this was shortly lived, due to Keith's unavailability to be in the band. 2021, Stephen and Rick recorded an EP split for Love Your Enemies Records, with Manta Birostris. The songs included are "A Spectre In The Nous" which is the first new song from the band since 2014. Additionally the band recorded a cover of a 90s band called 274, titled "If You Think". The EP was released in 2022. Currently (2022) the band is set to record the 2nd full-length album.{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/unteachers/posts/10154503505909803|title=If anybody is wondering about the status/future of Unteachers...|publisher=[Facebook](/source/Facebook)|first=Stephen|last=Sarro|date=September 5, 2016|accessdate=October 18, 2016}} ==Members== '''Current''' *Stephen Mark Sarro - vocals, guitar (formerly of [Tantrum of the Muse](/source/Tantrum_of_the_Muse)) (2006–present) *Rick Wise - drums, percussion (formerly of [Tantrum of the Muse](/source/Tantrum_of_the_Muse), formerly of [The Huntingtons](/source/The_Huntingtons)) (2007, 2016–present) '''Former''' *Clifton Travis Turner - drums (formerly of [Aletheian](/source/Aletheian), [Solamors](/source/Solamors)) (2010-2016) *Brian Denny - bass (2011-2013) *Joshua Kale - bass (formerly of My Brother the Woodmaker) (2010-2016) *Keith Scotten - bass (The Cancerous Reagans, Ten Thousand Bullets) (2016-2020) *Seth Luzier - keyboards, piano (formerly of [Tantrum of the Muse](/source/Tantrum_of_the_Muse)) (2006-2007) *Thom Lambert - drums (formerly of [Good Clean Fun](/source/Good_Clean_Fun_(band))) (2006-2007) '''Timeline''' {{#tag:timeline| ImageSize = width:800 height:auto barincrement:20 PlotArea = left:80 bottom:80 top:5 right:10 Alignbars = justify DateFormat = mm/dd/yyyy Period = from:01/01/2006 till:{{#time:m/d/Y}} TimeAxis = orientation:horizontal format:yyyy ScaleMajor = increment:2 start:2006 ScaleMinor = increment:1 start:2006 Colors = id:Vocals value:red legend:Vocals,_guitar id:Keys value:purple legend:Keyboards id:Bass value:blue legend:Bass id:Drums value:orange legend:Drums id:Album value:black legend:Studio_album id:EP value:gray(0.55) legend:Other_release id:bars value:gray(0.95) Legend = orientation:vertical position:bottom columns:3 BackgroundColors=bars:bars LineData = layer:back at:01/01/2007 color:EP at:07/10/2012 color:EP at:11/01/2014 color:Album BarData = bar:Stephen text:"Stephen Sarro" bar:Seth text:"Seth Luzier" bar:Brian text:"Brian Denny" bar:Josh text:"Josh Kale" bar:Keith text:"Keith Scotten" bar:Thom text:"Thom Lambert" bar:Trav text:"Travis Turner" bar:Rick text:"Rick Wise" PlotData= width:11 bar:Stephen from:start till:end color:Vocals bar:Brian from:01/01/2006 till:01/01/2007 color:Bass bar:Josh from:01/01/2010 till:09/05/2016 color:Bass bar:Keith from:10/01/2016 till:01/19/2020 color:Bass bar:Seth from:01/01/2006 till:01/01/2007 color:Keys bar:Thom from:01/01/2006 till:01/01/2007 color:Drums bar:Trav from:06/01/2009 till:09/05/2016 color:Drums bar:Rick from:10/01/2016 till:end color:Drums }} ==Discography== '''Studio albums''' * ''A Human Comedy'' (November 1, 2014, Veritas Vinyl){{cite web|url=https://hmmagazine.com/blog/album-reviews/unteachers-human-comedy/|title=UnTeachers - ''A Human Comedy''|publisher=[HM Magazine](/source/HM_Magazine)|first=Collin|last=Simula|date=13 September 2014 |accessdate=October 10, 2015}}{{cite web|url=https://mauce.nl/site/unteachers-a-human-comedy-2/|title=UnTeachers - ''A Human Comedy''|publisher=Mauce.nl|date=August 11, 2014|accessdate=October 10, 2015}} '''EPs''' * ''UnTeachers/Grace & Thieves'' (July 10, 2012, Veritas Vinyl; Split with Grace & Thieves){{cite web|url=https://www.indievisionmusic.com/2012/08/01/unteachers-and-grace-thieves-split-7/|title=Unteachers/Grace & Thieves - ''UnTeachers/Grace & Thieves''|publisher=Indie Vision Music|first=Steven|last=Cosand|date=August 1, 2012|accessdate=October 10, 2015}} * ''Untantrum EP'' (January 1, 2007) '''Compilation appearances''' * ''Metal From The Dragon (Vol. 1)'' (June 23, 2017; The Bearded Dragon Productions) ==References== {{Reflist}} ==External links== *[https://www.theantidoteradio.com/interview/stephen-sarro-tantrum-of-the-muse-unteachers-interview Stephen Sarro (ex-Tantrum of the Muse, UnTeachers)] {{authority control}} Category:Musical groups established in 2006 Category:American Christian metal musical groups --- Adapted from the Wikipedia article [UnTeachers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UnTeachers) by Wikipedia contributors ([contributor history](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UnTeachers?action=history)).
