Anberlin has been accused of being a band that listeners can identify by every song. I never thought that this criticism was fair because the band has a range of songs of different tempos and tones.  The band did, however, seem to follow an album formula, particularly in their earlier work. But in  2022, the band decided to release an EP rather than a full album. The five songs on Silverline were a little more experimental for the band than their previous work. The electronic and post-hardcore elements the band developed after their breakup were best exemplified in the singles “ Two Graves ” and “ Circles .” Even with the shock of the new Anberlin sound, I was confused when I heard the lead single from Convinced , the 2023 follow-up to Silverline. Rather than a zippy guitar riff from Joseph Milligan and Stephen Christian ’s clear vocals, “ Lacerate ” starts a little slower than many Anberlin album openers with an ambient synth. SLOW FADE, SLOW FEIGN. The first voice we hear on Conv

On February 1, 2005, Anberlin released their sophomore record, Never Take Friendship Personal . I started listening to Anberlin   since  Blueprints for the Black Market, which had been one of my favorite records when it was released. I bought the record on February 6th, Super Bowl Sunday.

It's not a classic for everyone, but it was the right record for that time, and when I listen to it, I'm transformed back to 2005. 1. " Never Take Friendship Personal ." This is the only occasion that Anberlin has named a record after a song. The song begins with aggressive guitars before launching into a classic

I 'm not going to go on and on again about how much I admire Ryan Clark 's talent. I talked about in January and February . I think I've touched on the talent of former Project 86 guitarist Randy Torres. Torres left Project 86 to work as an engineer with Aaron Sprinkle making legendary Tooth & Nail albums, then went to work as A & R for the label, toured with Anberlin on their New Surrender tour, and finally landed a job with Microsoft, then doing sound design for films and video games.  Somewhere between their busy schedules, Ryan Clark and Randy Torres crowdfunded an album and an EP as a new project, unrelated to Demon Hunter, called Nyves . Rather than being heavy on the guitars and screaming lyrics, the project takes on a dark electronic-meets '80s progressive metal sound perfect for a gloomy day like today. A FIRE OUT OF BREATH.
