yes, they are christian. their label "tooth and nail" is christian only. They have to have their lyrics approved as well to make sure they are clean and christian in nature.
ok can someone please tell me why in the hell some people hate this song, and waste there time typing stupid random crap just to piss off the people who like something they hate?
Those who waste there time to do this is a faggot and needs to go the hell away!
I saw them 2 years ago, in club zoo pittsburgh, they were pretty damn good live. It was a yellowcard concert but i bought the ticket for Anberlin. Studio sounds good because its supposed to lol, its not like they played through it once and had it perfect. Stephen its great live as well.
I hate that Anberlin is on the radio. Now everyone knows who they are, and it offends me. They were like my own secret and personal Jesus for a long time
Hmm, not many people seem to know theme here. But if people hear them and like them, I can't really have a problem with it just because they didn't like them when they'd never heard of them to begin with.
sarah08hannah: It clearly states in the upper right corner, that they are now on Universal Republic. Their new record was released by them...not their original label, Tooth & Nail
how did the music video for one of their least faith-related songs spark a heated debate about how their record label causes people to categorize them as musicians? christian or not, the music is good, it doesnt matter who they do it for
I love this band!!! It is absolutley amazing.... I am hoping I can go to one of there concerts this summer.... I am saving up, but money is tight around here..
I love this song! It is my favorite by them at the moment, I cant wait until there new single comes out!!!! (=
If you start reading thins you CANT stop .Once ther was a little girl named Cecilia.She was a little 7 year old who got strangled and raped by a man =.If you dont post this to 15 other videos you will see CCecilia standing at the end of your bed with a knife and she will kill you
You have to do this by midnight or you will be dead
Love this song, but the older version is better, in my opinion, it was the first Anberlin song I heard ^^ Anberlin is amazing...and ohhh the lyrics =D
No you shut up! It is a CHRISTIAN BAND, with CHRISTIAN morals. They want to spread their message! The words have meaning *Le Gasp* Who does that! The Fiends!
I don't want to be smart or anything but I believe they do because Christians are meant to do all things for God's glory. They just don't write music that explicitly praises God :)
ummm well idk where you did your research at but your wrong.. Anberlin is under Tooth and Nail Records..Which is a christian record label.. A label that Underoath is also under.. Get your Facts straight Before you talk about something you dont know. With that said.. Why does it matter what label their under. Labels are stupid anyway. their good musicians and thats all that matters. Forget everything else.
Anberlin left Tooth & Nail in 2007 and signed with Universal Republic Records in August of that year. Get your facts straight before you talk about something you don't know.
Yes, they were signed to T&N, which is seen to be a 'Christian label', however, Anberlin are not a Christian band, how do I know, because the band say they're not, I wouldn't care if they were, they are still incredible, but the fact is, they're not, and if you have a problem with that, take it up with the band, because they're the ones who argue they are not a Christian band.
They all have they're faith, but they do not write or perform music for god or for religious discovery.
Sorry to tell all of you but Anberlin isn't classified under "Christian" Music. Anberlin's members are all christian individually and their music is to inspire you with a positive message not shove christianity down your throats.
Without their Christian perspective, there would probably not be any positive message to convey. I don't want to start an argument but you have the wrong idea about Christians. We aren't called to shove our beliefs down people's throats, that is what people misunderstand our message to be.
Are you saying that only Christians are capable of imparting a positive message to anyone? BTW, you want to try living round here, I'm constantly being doorstepped by one group or another intent on ramming their naive beliefs down my throat.
No, I am saying that it is less likely to have a positive view on things with the world the way it is unless you have a Christian perspective. You can still have a positive view, but that usually requires a lot of ignorance or apathy. What Christians are called to do is give the Gospel to people, not force them to embrace it. If someone does not want to talk to us about Christianity, we will not make them. If people are doing that were you live, then that is not shoving beliefs down your throat.
That's got to be the most arrogant, smug post I've read today. True ignorance is what comes from reading bronze-age fairy tales from the most heavily censored, revised and edited book in history, and then having the cheek to declare that what's left is devine revelation, even though it still doesn't reflect the universe we inhabit.
I did not mean any arrogance in my post. I don't see how you could have misunderstood that to be arrogance. I doon't know if you realize that the Bible we have today is almost identical (except for differences due to translation) to the dead sea scrolls. They are the oldest manuscripts of any book and yet they are still remarkably the same. It has not been heavily revised, that is something somebody who didn't like the Bible came up with by themselves. Explain what you mean by that statement.
I think you'd better study theology a little better. The dead sea scrolls are not an original version of the bible, they are a conpemporary record from the time Christ is alleged to have lived. There is no mention of Christ in the scrolls, or indeed of any of his miracles. That is why the catholic church (which owns the scrolls) refuses to publish them in their entirety...
The bible has been heavily revised and censored over the centuries to reflect the knowledge of the time. During the last 1000 years, the bible has lost an entire testament (The Apocrypha) and over 20 gospels. If we assume the bible is the word of god, and that god is omnipotent, they we must as ourselves why the bible isn't even self-consistent. If you stand back and study the bible objectively in the light of what we know, you'll see that it just doesn't stack up....
The idea that the bible is some historical record is also fallacy. Even the first of the gospells wasn't wrintten until more than 30 years after Christ's death, and the last gospel (John) almost 200 years after Christ. The bible is the work of many different men; men who weren't even reading from the same script.
The earliest fragments we have of those documents were copied far later than the earliest (and larger) fragments of the post-Jesus writings. If you reckon the story of Socrates to be reasonably accurate, then you must by the same criteria figure that the gospels' accounts of Jesus were reasonably accurate. Jesus' divinity may still be doubtful fantasy, but as far as historical references go, the gospels are not a horrible starting point.
My point is that there are no written fragments of Jesus's life until 30+ years after his death; only stories passed by word-of-mouth, effectively a Chinese whisper, hence the fantastic claims of the later gospels. There is no contemporary record.
No, I mean Socrates. The supposed teacher of Plato, of whom we only know by second-hand, possibly fictional accounts.
Aristotle we know of by his own writings. That is to say, we know he actually existed. Socrates, however, was only written of, rather than writing his philosophies himself.
Are books written based on the accounts of survivors of Auschwitz inaccurate? We're 67 years post facto. Would an account crafted from their memories be necessarily inaccurate based on the time difference?
Interview a dozen witnesses to an event and they'll tell you dozen different versions. They'll probably have 80 or 90 percent in common, which is where the truth will lie. Interview their great-grandchildren in 100 years about what their great-grandparents saw, and see if you get as much commonality. Folk tales are notoriously unreliable.
The account of Socrates is first-hand, as Plato knew him personally. Likewise the accounts of the death camp survivors is also first-hand, and more to the point, reliably corroborated. Most accounts of Jesus' ministry were written by men who weren't even born when he died, and were compiled from stories that had been handed down by word-of-mouth, which given the human propensity for stretching the truth can hardly be considered reliable.
But could not the stories of Socrates be fiction? How can we know that he was, indeed, real?
The gospel of Luke was built from the accounts of eyewitnesses. Mark's gospel sprung up thirty years after the estimated date of Jesus' crucifixion. Paul's letters cropped up even earlier, from what I've read.
As far as folk-tale decay goes, I can hardly disagree. I merely doubt that happened substantially in this case.
In truth, the first three gospels have much in common, and are not so steeped in magic and miracles as John.
Perhaps I should seperate Jesus the man from Jesus, God incarnate. I don't doubt Jesus the man; a common name at the time. I do doubt Jesus the magician, as my education and observation leads me to believe that we inhabit a universe of cause and effect, undepinned by the laws of physics, and with little room for the supernatural. God hides in the recesses science hasn't reached...yet!
30 years is a long time for a human memory. For instance, 30 years ago this year, my friend and I went to watch Led Zeppelin at Knebworth. A truly great gig, which is still rooted in my mind, but 10 years later, apart from New Barbarians, we couldn't even agree on the other bands on the bill that day, never mind Zeppelin's set list.
I have no idea why Plato and Xenophon would invent Socrates, any more than I would know why the apostles would suffer horrific murders for a vague memory. I merely raise the question.
I think that defining miracles as necessarily violating the laws of physics is a bit iffy, theologically speaking. Wouldn't the creator of the material universe work within the rules he already set?
ok one thing ziger im not trying to be mean or anything but you obviously haven't seen alot of christian music videos before because if you have seen some hardcore, screamo vids you will totally not think that any more haha.
fuckin amazing song... and the video was pretty tight it's self... IDK what's its all about. But I'll take a guess that the dude loved this girl and she drowned her self in this ooze and was taking away. And the dude was late...
its a song about adultery, and the video is all just a giant metaphore. yeah man....everyone makes videos about drowning in oooze these days....its the thing to do.
hmm is this the second or third album this song has been on? Don't get me wrong it's a fave of mine but I'm surprised that they would release this one as a single instead of something new new.
Dudes! they did not sell out just cause they switched labels, they are just some honest dudes trying to make a living just like every other person who aims for success, they are just doing it through their talent...
i liked the first better. Also, the new version has no screaming on the breakdown , and even though the song is louder, it is more mellow than the first version.
im a bit late bu tafter i heard this song i love anberlin.

30 years is a long time for a human memory. For instance, 30 years ago this year, my friend and I went to watch Led Zeppelin at Knebworth. A truly great gig, which is still rooted in my mind, but 10 years later, apart from New Barbarians, we couldn't even agree on the other bands on the bill that day, never mind Zeppelin's set list.

I have no idea why Plato and Xenophon would invent Socrates, any more than I would know why the apostles would suffer horrific murders for a vague memory. I merely raise the question.
I think that defining miracles as necessarily violating the laws of physics is a bit iffy, theologically speaking. Wouldn't the creator of the material universe work within the rules he already set?
BobUnderhill 2 years ago
I would think that naturalistic explanations for miracles are perfectly valid, while still maintaining their miraculous nature.
Just a thought.
BobUnderhill 2 years ago
I'm thinking miraculous as in raising the dead (Lazarus) or spontaneously turning water into wine. Both of those would defy rational explanation

fuckin amazing song... and the video was pretty tight it's self... IDK what's its all about. But I'll take a guess that the dude loved this girl and she drowned her self in this ooze and was taking away. And the dude was late...

its a song about adultery, and the video is all just a giant metaphore. yeah man....everyone makes videos about drowning in oooze these days....its the thing to do.

hmm is this the second or third album this song has been on? Don't get me wrong it's a fave of mine but I'm surprised that they would release this one as a single instead of something new new.

I like the original version only because Christian screams in it. This version is way heavier than the previous one and sounds better.

This song isn't new... why would they re-release it on another CD? xD
I'm really behind, aren't I. Someone inform me.

Gummiellama 3 years ago
It was re recorded and put on another album. It has a different intro and is louder than the first version, for starters.

Well that much is obvious. However, it doesn't seem like there has been a definite improvement from the former version.
LoHvEeE903 3 years ago
i liked the first better. Also, the new version has no screaming on the breakdown , and even though the song is louder, it is more mellow than the first version.
