[atomicfriendo]

anberlin sucks :)-~

[desertpunkX1]

Song at 4:05?

[rh1252]

@desertpunkX1 That's a "Whisper and a Clamour"- I've heard it live and its awesome, but in this recording the sound balance seems a bit off. The vocals need to be turned way up, and one of the guitar parts is barely audible.

[Hotdawg0007]

HAHA!! And Muse? Those guys are HUGE now. Its amazing what happens in 2 years.

[9tifftiff5]

a band called Paramore... Now Paramore is so big Anberlin would be opening for them... Oh how times have changed in 2 and half years...

[Minniechick404]

itz great to see how they have grown in their realationship w/ god through their music and how tht is affecting their success!

[lifehouse247]

awesome

[PRAIREDAWG69]

funny how he said muse doesn't get enough attention. that was two years ago. their one of the biggest bands in the world right now haha

[eggsaladxx]

an anberlin concert sounds and looks super fun!

[xMetallicPanda]

Stephen has a really unique way of singing dontcha think?

[RUNbandinterviews]

Agreed!

[Volcomkid2266]

That so cool that anberlin and paramore are preforming together! They are my two favourite bands!

[BrandonCSullivan]

Love them!

[ebirdyca]

Dismantle.Repair.

[easterlingcaptain]

I. LOVE. ANBERLIN.

[RUNbandinterviews]

Dismantle. Repair. off of the album Cities

[ihatescreamobands]

did paramore open for them or the other way around

[zacharybrown2003]

i am 26 years old and Anberlin are awesome band. for awhile there, rock music sucked...but i think in this decade comming up rock music is going to be much better then in the early 2000's. dudes, this past decade all around sucked.

[suzielovesmusic]

so is he married or not? i saw a ring last night when Anberlin played....

;-)

[relientkobsessed]

yeah he got married summer 08'

[eringobragh91]

I just fell in love with Anberlin these past 1 or 2 months, and watching this interview makes me want to 1) see them perform and 2) meet Stephen! He seems like such a nice and friendly guy. Great interview!

[liveweyer]

At 5 minutes, he makes some damn amazing comments about the charts! it's about time REAL bands take back what's theres.

[kimmy1790]

they're going to be around for over 5 years, guaranteed. 2008 is technically their 5 year mark- I think they will continue to move forward, big time.

[zinnyzxx]

its actually stephan christian- not christians

[U2break]

Is Anberlin a christian band?

[RUNbandinterviews]

They are Christians in a band, so their beliefs come out in some of their songs but they are more focused on just making a positive influence.

[cerberus952]

yeah

[somecallmedaniel16]

you're right.. in the Bible it actually tells us not to.

[MEGAXSTU]

Stephen has the most beautiful voice.

[symatic]

WITH PARAMORE :O

[bzjulia11]

they are soo amazing live

[xLostinyourliesx]

i love how soft stephens speaking voice is, but then when he starts singing and getting the crowd going....that is an amazing transition

[mope92]

I'm glad they are not a christian band

[sandrock605]

Ive seen these guys in concert many-a-times. They make amazing records, but sorry Christian, your pretty gay when you perform live.

[jmanwilleatu]

lol thats true

[Shadowcor]

my bad i get carried away really quick, dats why i come to god to ask for forgivenes every second of ma life

[wwjd0388]

thats, and my. And I'm fairly sure Anberlin isn't a "christian" band. They just switched to a major label, (thank God) and I know Christian isn't religious, more so just spiritual (showcased by the lyrics to *Fin)

[somecallmedaniel16]

are you sure the band isn't Christian? seems like to me there are lots of religious undertones in their songs. and how do you know that?

[MEGAXSTU]

yeah you are right. Stephen started out in a christian band and when anberlin was made, they sorta fused the basics of the old christian songs into certain anberlin songs. But as a whole it isn't labeled as a Christian band.

[somecallmedaniel16]

yeah. like switchfoot. i noticed in their 'thanks to' section of their cd.. thing.. the first on the list was God. dead giveaway right there. haha

[BRADical199]

not necessarily.. what's the one thing that all actors say when they win an award? "I'd like to thank God.." just because they say that doesn't mean anything.. but both of those bands are christian and that's all that matters

[cerberus952]

yeah we all make mistakes like anberlin in their lost songs cd said what the h on creeps but i bet they asked for God to forgive them so its okay

[Shadowcor]

fuck wut all of the ppl say, anberlin is christian and even if thair song dont show it sometimes, their songs are spiritlifting so fuck wut the people say

[Tooka294]

these guys are christians but they are like alot of ppl i kno dnt wanna be labled with a religous tag.

[sk8er4lif3777]

Yeah their not a christian band their not on tooth and nail anymore also.

[jmanwilleatu]

is there band Christian, if there not , then what religion are they

[stndinthereign777]

They're Christian guys.

[NateontheGuitar]

theyr christian guys, but stephen has said that theyr not really a christian band. they talk about god and stuff but they dont wanna be labeled too deep

[somecallmedaniel16]

yeah. they're like switchfoot.

[AGirlAndHerBass]

I met Jamie Tworkowski from TWLOHA's roommate, bwahahaha... so awesome how everything is connected and stuff.

[xxalexithymiaxx]

He's such a wonderful organism. XD

Stephen rocks.

[xxalexithymiaxx]

Stephen *Christian*... not *Christians*...

[thenotes15]

They were amazing live when I went to go see them. They're awesome!!!

[jamidjojo]

ahh... makes me wanna go meet them again.. like now!! i miss you guyS!

[muziklvr101]

It must've been cool to meet him! Then again, you get to meet tons of awesome people!

[RUNbandinterviews]

It was really cool to meet him. Steven was probably one of my favorite people to talk to for interviews. He's very genuine and easy to talk to.

[zombielovely]

he is one of the most adorable guys ever.such a sweetheart.<33

[walkingonsunshine91]

This footage is definitely from Purple Door..right? I was so there!!! Is that where you did the interview? Your vids came out really good too - I've got a few also. Great interview =P

[RUNbandinterviews]
