![]() Case and point with ‘Atonement’ and you simply need to listen to the lyrics to get this song to understand it, it to me feels like a wrap up, a thank you, a song for the fans, maybe I’m wrong but this song is outstanding, and with its fade out summing it up I’ll just leave it at that. ![]() What I like about these songs so far is I feel like they have been written with the live show in mind, like they want to not only create this final album but want to play these songs for us on stage to show how proud they are of this final effort. No sooner have I finished saying how much of a big rock track that was comes ‘Velvet Covered Brick’ and enough guitars to make me happy and probably many more too. Lyrically I’ve always loved what Anberlin do and this one is up there as one that stands out in terms of lyrical content. It’s not a big rock track, it’s not a big ballad, it’s just a great tune and when you listen, and I say when because you just need to, you’ll see what I mean. ‘Stranger Ways’ not only has an outstanding video to accompany it (see below) but is just such a great tune. #MATT GOLDMAN ANBERLIN LOWBORN FULL#It’s ethereal at times, it’s just a full song that if you really listen to it, there are so many things going on here, it’s so well produced and I applaud that. #MATT GOLDMAN ANBERLIN LOWBORN MOVIE#Now we have ‘Armageddon’ which A) reminds me I need to watch Armageddon again, man that stupid movie makes me cry, sorry, distracted and 2) how supremely talented Anberlin are in terms of their song writing and arrangements, in fact this song feels like it’s the best thing 90’s Depeche Mode never did and I absolutely love it. ![]() Not only does it have album opener written all over it, it has live show opener written there too and I’d be more than surprised if we didn’t get this one kicking off their farewell shows down here in Australia next month. OK, yeah I know, this album has been out for a little bit now, and I’ve listened to it more than a handful of times, but what’s interesting about this album is knowing that it’s the band’s last album, this made it a little difficult to express my ‘feelings’ towards it, so now after some digestion of the idea of Anberlin leaving us, it’s time to review ‘Lowborn’…īeing a fan of this band for quite some time, I had high expectations with this one and when opener ‘We Are Destroyer’ started somewhat different, electronic I made that confused face like I didn’t know what was going on, but there it is, boom… loud guitars, big chorus and the great melody I’ve come to love from these guys. ![]()
