Hailing from sunny Orlando and playing emotional (dare I say emo) pop-rock, Anberlin are considered veterans in the scene even though they've only released two albums, both of which were extremely well-selling. At first, Stephen Christian's voice doesn't seem fitting for a rock band, but a few listens (especially on tracks "Glass to the Arson" and "Paperthin Hymn") and you should be convinced that it does indeed work, and to amazing proportions. While drawing comparisons to other secular acts like Fall Out Boy, these guys know how to keep their faith in a good perspective, even through their catchy hooks and sometimes dark-sounding lyrics.
Recommended listens: "Glass to the Arson" and "Never Take Friendship Personal"
Amanda might be snoozing, but they're one of my favorite Christian bands ever, so what the heck?

No, I'm not snoozing! I like Anberlin. They just sound really bad live. I don't think you should say emo, cuz I don't think so. We "accidently" asked their guitarist which venue they were playing at. But I wouldn't recommend seeing them live.
I wanna go to the T&N tour. But too much stuff going on this month.
uhhhhhhh ok no music attachments?
honestly i have never heard a song by them before
go ahead laugh your brains out
hahahahaha
