Dark Is the Way, Light Is a Place shows Anberlin's ability to rage against the world while forging tracks that are both melodically enticing and instrumentally potent. The band's s piritual underpinnings are given in terse, biting language and driven home by Stephen Christian's anguished-to-exalted lead vocals. Dark Is the Way… explores the peaks and chasms of love, capturing a boundless sense of desire inImpossible and nursing wounds of betrayal in To the Wolves. We Owe This to Ourselves reasserts Anberlin's aggressive side with rifle-shot guitar bursts and a ZZ Top-like beat. The band's sweeter songs - particularly the yearning You Belong Here and the acoustic-centered Down - don't lose their edge even as they celebrate the possibility of happiness. Most of all, these songs are concerned with truth and self-liberation, a theme most passionately expressed in the album's closing tune, Depraved. Producer Brendan O'Brien helps Anberlin achieve a widescreen sound with cleanly slicing guitar lines and luminous vocal harmonies. - iTunes CD Details Release Date: September 07, 2010 Record Label: Universal Republic UPC: 602527478074 Number of Discs: 1 Listen Before You Buy We Owe This To Ourselves Impossible Take Me (As You Found Me) Closer You Belong Here Pray Tell Art Of War To The Wolves Down Depraved Show more
