    4 days. This comes out the day I move back to my hometown to be closer to my dad who is in decline. Lot of emotions and uncertainty with the move. This album, like their last, is gonna help me through a big transition.

    I loved this. I've also never seen anything like it. Felt like the movie invented a new film language at times. Was it occasionally confusing? Yes. But it was always mesmerizing. Also, I loved the distinctive structure of the film and how every act felt memorable in completely different ways. It was so clearly organized I feel like I can recall all of it.

    Seven at least felt better than the other two because Matty only wrote the lyrics and nothing else. Chad Carouthers wrote the demo for the song and brought it to Anberlin to record. it's the main reason i give that song a bit of a pass. unfortunately i don't think we're ever getting anything that intriguing again.

    "A lot of people are saying Matty is trying to change the band into a metalcore band, but really Matty is back there trying to get us to write “Time and Confusion: Part 2.” He wants the Anberlin that he fell in love with, he wants the more pop-punk vibe that we’ve had in our repertoire for years." Okay... what are we doing here? Why is Matty's fandom such a big part of the story here when long-time listeners really don't care? Why are we rehashing the old sound? This isn't how bands are supposed to progress. You're artists. Grow. Innovate. Don't chase the past. This is exactly what you guys said you weren't going to do when you hung it up, and you came back in such perfect fashion until all of this. I feel like Deon is trying to say what fans want to hear, but if you're appealing to nostalgia it makes it even worse to have a different vocalist. At least Seven felt like a step in a different direction. My goodness, every decision these guys have made in the last year has been exhausting. I can't believe an Anberlin record is coming out and I'm not looking forward to it.

    I actually would be perfectly content with them still writing and releasing music with Stephen if it meant that Matty was 100% full time touring with them. That's what they made it sound like and then it's evolved to *this* I wouldn't even mind if it was an album with 4 Matty songs, 4 Stephen songs. I can make an EP of those 4.

    These songs are floating somewhere between Pure Heroine/Melodrama and Solar Power quality wise for me. Maybe closer to Solar Power. They're all solid but nothing is blowing me away like the first two records. I hope the rest changes that. I had so much confidence in her after Melodrama that it's surreal to be coming up on a decade since I've really loved a Lorde song.
