Anberlin Band • Page 270

So there is some negativity you don’t give a pass to.

 

Cute. I’ll let this exchange stand for itself. Ciao.

 

That’s not cute at all. You’re making excuses for grown ass men in a professional band to be shitty to fans. Pathetic.

 

Did they tell any particular fan to their face to pound sand like you just directly insulted me? Or are you extrapolating from a generalized statement and being the hit dog who hollered? You had no reason to be shitty to me just now, but leapt at the opportunity. Reflect on that.

 

Gee, I wonder if I had a point in doing so. Hmmmm

The band has made multiple comments aimed directly at fans like me. They delete comments on socials that are negative or question who is singing. You have no reason to defend them. The band has chosen to be clowns about it rather than just be a band. Why do you defend them? Nothing said on here has been exaggerated or made up. Reflect on that.

 

I’m now officially a “fuck Anberlin” guy. This guy convinced me.

 

Yo I just realized Greg does more than band/album anniversary comments!

 

It’s been 3 minutes since I said “fuck Anberlin” for the first time.

 

Yeah, I’m just here for bonus Greg.

 

“Fans like me”

So you’re projecting. You’ve chosen to take it personally because you seemingly align with the people who were so venomous that they broke the band’s diplomatic streak. You’re upset that they’re not using their social media like a public square for people to vent frustrations about a lineup choice that was out of their control. You’re entitled, and you’re lashing out as a result. Please visit your local park and touch an abundance of grass.

It’s sweet that you accord me so much power, but let’s honest, you were looking for a reason this whole time. Glad I could give you permission to finally be yourself, warts and all. I’m gonna go give my kid a bath, and you can continue to be performatively mad on the internet. I hope it’s as fulfilling as it looks!

 

Also, my name was on a list a page or so back saying I say a lot in this thread. Feeling proud.

 

So words have no meaning then? Cool.

In that case, I’ll make up my own to reply to you. Your snifton logic is uuiuurf, which I find insulting. Try to jeeek. Flonazel.

 

Also, never not hilarious when someone acts superior while also shit posting on the same forum.

 

To a previous point made in this thread, at this point they 100% have done “eff Stephen, go with Matty”


What was put out as a public release about Stephen’s departure 2 summers ago (correct me if I’m wrong), had changed drastically for better/worse depending on what side you’re on. A break from touring from Stephen has turned from him still being present in studio to now re-recordings of classics and moving forward with a new vocalist.

Still love this band but it’s definitely frustrating in this new timeline. Always have their back catalog to jam to. I also highly suggest a reverse discog run. Just completed one and was so happy.

 

I don't consider Stephen to be in the band, I see him as a special guest for few and far between shows

 

Nah he's still in the band, he just goes to a different school now I swear

But on a serious note, I hate the direction of the band, both artistically and how they interact with fans. Leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
