Burn Out Brighter (Northern Lights)

Breaking

Breathe

Disappear

Feel Good Dra

A Perfect Tourniquet

True Faith

The Resistance

 

I don't think I've ever heard the b-sides on this record, so I'll probably abstain from voting this round. (Also this is my least fav Anberlin album so I don't have too strongly of opinions except that I think Blame Me is the best song on this record and I'd like to see it win.)

Feel Good Drag
A Perfect Tourniquet
Heavier Things Remain

I feel like it's gonna end up being disappear versus feel good drag for the final round of this album and that's gonna be crazy rough.

 

Tis time to move on, not too much competition here.

I think Breaking is probably the better song in its matchup, but Burn Out Brighter gives me so much joy every time I listen. Had to go with it.

Also, did anyone else think Breaking was going to be the song that blew Anberlin up? It's not my favorite, but I was disappointed it never got more traction. I could've seen it being HUGE.

 

I'm the same with Burn Out Brighter. It just has that impact.

Feel Goo D Drag

The Resistance

 

I always found Feel Goo D Drag to be the most unique song in their discography.

 

I agree with you, felt like Breaking was poised to be massive

 

It's always been a joke title for my friends and I. My old car stereo displayed the song title and it had The Feel Goo on screen, then would flash to the d Drag after because it couldn't all fit at once. The title just stuck.

 

I'm not sure how good Breaking did on the charts, but it came right after Feel Goo D Drag that was #1 on active rock radio for a super long time I think. I feel like even if Breaking did great, they were already huge with their first single.

 

I'm honestly surprised that Breathe wasn't a big hit on like, Christian radio
