Anberlin

One band that I've loved for a long time is Anberlin. These guys are your classic Alternative Rock group - ranging from your rough, loud athem tracks all the way back to those soft, meaningful pieces.

I love the way that Anberlin can vary their sound like that. It gives their music a real genuiness because it shows that their music style reflects the content matter of the song. Their lyrics are another strong point... One track, The Unwinding Cable Car, is the story of a man who has been through his life and considers all the times he'd like to go back and relive - or do differently. The song ends up being an encouraging message - with the feel of a caring grandparent giving advice to a grand child.

The overarching message of Anberlin is a positive one, a welcome change in todays' egotistical music scene. The band has its roots in Christian music, as all the memebers express a Christian faith, however they insist that their music is for everyone.

They'll be visiting Australia this year for The Big Exo Day in september. Which I'm pretty darn excited about!
