	5 of 25   #5. Anberlin untitled Release Date: Sometime 2010 The gents of Anberlin have proven themselves repeatedly while signed to both an indie and major label, and with the deluxe edition of New Surrender tiding us over until their 2010 offering, the quintet does a good job of keeping themselves in their fans' minds throughout the year. Really, we don't know exactly where Anberlin is going to take us next, but I couldn't be more enthralled to hear new material from these legends-to-be...         - Roger Gelwicks It is my humble opinion that Anberlin can do no wrong. Even though 2008's New Surrender sometimes looked like a step backward from the career-defining Cities, it was still packed with enough hooky, anthemic rock to keep this long-time fan happy. So of course the early buzz for their fifth studio album has me thrilled. Online hints from band members suggest something "less poppy" and "darker" this time around. Perhaps another shot at the magic of Cities? I sure hope so.         - Jen Rose Every time these guys crank out a new recording, it's special. Each successive album proves to be their new personal best, and the upcoming release should be no exception.         - Garrett DeRossett Their first album on their new label, Universal, was a big hit with Anberlin fans, but left me very disappointed (due in part to it releasing not that long after the amazing Cities). But Anberlin is a great band, and I honestly feel like maybe that was just a fluke. Coming up on their fifth studio album, they'll definitely pull out some bigger guns and give their fans something wonderful.         - Scott Fryberger I can’t say enough about this band, as they are currently a favorite of mine. Their first three albums were unforgettable, however, their last album, New Surrender, although it was decent, wasn’t remembered as much as previous projects. Here is hoping they give us something as good as Cities which will be quite a feat.         - Wayne Myatt With New Surrender, Anberlin proved that they had successfully weathered the transition to a major record label. With four excellent albums behind them, expectations couldn't be higher for the next one.         - Timothy Estabrooks Visit our Anberlin page for more information about them... 2010 Countdown Recap: 25 | 24 |23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 ©January, 2010 Jesusfreakhideout.com
