=== ''Oblivion with Bells''=== [[File:Underworldlivenewyork2007 crop.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Underworld performing "[[Jumbo (Underworld song)|Jumbo]]" in [[Central Park]], [[New York City]], 2007.]] Underworld's seventh studio album, ''[[Oblivion with Bells]]'', was released on 16 October 2007. The first single from the new album, "[[Crocodile (song)|Crocodile]]", was released on 5 September 2007.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://trafficjpn.com/news/show/52|title=The information of Underworld and new work sale.

Underworld, in collaboration with composer [[John Murphy (composer)|John Murphy]], completed the [[Sunshine (soundtrack)#Score|soundtrack]] to the [[Danny Boyle]] film, ''[[Sunshine (2007 film)|Sunshine]]'', in late 2006.<ref>{{Cite web |date=4 April 2007 |title='Sunshine' director Danny Boyle |url=https://www.digitalspy.com/movies/a44608/sunshine-director-danny-boyle/ |access-date=14 February 2024 |website=Digital Spy |language=en-GB}}</ref> Well over a year after the film's release, the official soundtrack was released on iTunes on 25 November 2008. On 16 June 2007, Underworld were forced to cancel their show at the Ejekt Festival in Athens, Greece. Approximately 30 masked Greek anarchists stormed the stadium while the [[Beastie Boys]] were performing. Rick Smith was one of the people injured in the ensuing violence and he was taken to a nearby Athens hospital for treatment.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.pr-inside.com/underworld-dj-injured-in-riot-r157510.htm|title=UNDERWORLD DJ INJURED IN RIOT|website=Pr-inside.com|access-date=31 August 2010}}</ref> On 19 October 2007, Underworld cancelled the remaining dates of their European tour due to illness in the band.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.side-line.com/news_comments.php?id=26653_0_2_0_C|title=Underworld cancel tour after severe illness member|website=Side-line.com|access-date=24 October 2007}}</ref> The tour was picked up again on 28 January 2008, with a concert in Cologne, followed by 16 dates in Europe, including some festivals. On 8 August 2008, Underworld appeared at the [[All Points West Music & Arts Festival]] in [[Liberty State Park]], New Jersey. Karl Hyde appeared with [[Brian Eno]] on the final day of the Eno-curated Luminous Festival at Sydney Opera House. "Pure Scenius" consisted of three live improvised performances on the same day, featuring Eno, Hyde, Australian improv trio [[the Necks]], electronic artist [[Jon Hopkins]] and guitarist [[Leo Abrahams]]. Underworld has released two new series via their underworldlive.com site, in mp3 and WAV formats. The tracks are 020202, and the phonestrap/autotrader series. On 3 July 2009, Underworld debuted a new song tentatively titled "Between Stars" at the [[Montreux Jazz Festival]]. Shortly before that, a post was made on the band's diary page showing a piece of paper with the song's first verse on it. On 8 August 2009, a show at Los Angeles' Forum was cancelled in circumstances similar to those that led to the group cancelling the show in Athens two years prior. Some of the crowd were climbing down the seats and onto the main floor, a potential safety hazard. The group apologized on their website for having the show called off. On 8 March 2010, [[Mark Knight (DJ)|Mark Knight]] and [[D. Ramirez]] released the single "Downpipe", which featured vocal contributions from Underworld's Karl Hyde. The song, released on Mark Knight's Toolroom Records label, has a music video featuring the "Playhouse", a lighting setup on Liberty Hall, the tallest building in [[Dublin]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbghaUtVfJg| archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211118/NbghaUtVfJg| archive-date=18 November 2021 | url-status=live|title=Downpipe music video|publisher=[[YouTube]]|access-date=24 October 2007}}{{cbignore}}</ref>
