Anberlin Band • Page 99

Lowborn is my favourite

I’ll be stoked if they do make a comeback!

 

I’m just going to pretend their trolling everyone until we have something definitive. Didn’t someone say they met up together for the first time post-Anberlin a month or so ago? They may have just taken this photo then. The question is why, ha!!

 

Lowborn is great and if you don’t think Atonement is one of their best songs I don’t understand you

 

Atonement is like a sequel to Art of War, coincidentally one of my other favorite Anberlin songs. They're heavenly.

 

Interesting, how do you figure? They’re totally different vibes to me

 

I can see it. "I found peace, in a foreign atonement", kind of sounds like "There are songs, I'll never write".

 

The last minute is one of my favorite moments in their discography. Otherworldly.

 

I’ll upload it on Dropbox, having some trouble with the main page. Soon though :)

 

Atonement is actually easily my second least favorite track on the album after harbinger, idk it’s just too slow/boring.

 

The only tracks on Lowborn I don't love are Birds of Prey, Armageddon, and Velvet Covered Brick. Everything else is pretty peak Anberlin.

 

K it’s gotta be done:

Velvet covered brick/losing it all
Armageddon
Stranger ways
Dissenter
We are destroyer
Hearing voices
Birds of prey
Atonement
Harbinger

 

I bet they only updated their website so that we would all come back here and rank their albums again

 

Atonement has a prechorus for a chorus and I hate that

 

Works for me!!!!

Cities
Lowborn
Vital/Devotion
Never Take Friendship Personal
Dark is the Way, Light is a Place
New Surrender
Blueprints for the Black Market

I’d like to be congratulated on what must be my tenth Anberlin album ranking in this thread. Psyched for number 11!

This thread has turned into at least five people’s worst nightmare.

 

Top three songs from every Anberlin album. Go.

Blueprints: Readyfuels, Cadence, Naive Orleans
NTFP: Paperthin Hymn, Symphony of Blase, Time and Confusion
Cities: Dismantle Repair, Unwinding Cable Car, Fin
New Surrender: The Resistance, Blame Me Blame Me, Feel Good Drag
DITW: Impossible, The Art of War, Down
Vital/Devotion: Self-Starter, Type Three, Modern Age
Lowborn: We Are Destroyer, Atonement, Hearing Voices

 

Naive Orleans
Dance, Dance Christa Paffgen
Dismantle. Repair.
The Resistance
Pray Tell
Self-Starter
Hearing Voices

 

Well, I got five out of seven between our lists, haha.

DDCP is undeniably the most ambitious song on NTFP, but I'unno, it doesn't hit me in the feels the way *Fin does (as far as album closers go), or even Symphony of Blase/Time and Confusion as regular tracks. Ditto for Pray Tell -- the most interesting stylistically in DITW, but Down is also low-key one of the most underrated and powerful acoustic jams in Anberlin's discog and needs more credit.

 

self-starter and pray tell are my favorite songs from this band

 

They're back for a show. Nate and Tim from UO just announced on Instagram live
