Comprising lead singer Stephen Christian, lead guitarist Joeseph Milligan,
guitarist Joey Bruce, bassist Deon Rexroat and drummer Nathan Young, Orlando,
Florida USA-based Anberlin first came into the public's eye as an Alternative-Rock
band in the summer of 2002 when they signed to Tooth & Nail Records.
The group wasted no time implementing a relentless live schedule, developing
a national fanbase and in May 2003 released their debut full-length disc,
"Blueprints For The Black Market"; the album immediately received
critical acclaim, something Anberlin had no problem backing up on stage
as they joined tours with bands like Fall
Out Boy, My Chemical Romance
and Story Of The Year.
By early 2005, the band delivered their sophomore CD, "Never Take
Friendship Personal"; Joey Bruce, who left between the recordings
of the two Tooth & Nail albums, was replaced by new guitarist, Nathan
Strayer; the album eventually hit #3 on the Billboard's Top Heatseekers
list and reached the #144 position on The Billboard Top 200 Sales chart;
it included the Modern Rock top 40 hit single "Paperthin Hymn".
Anberlin released its third album in February 2007; the 12-track set,
titled "Cities", contains the brand new single "Godspeed".
