976 views?!?!?! You've got be fucking kidding me. This is by far one of the best emo/alt/punk albums of the last decade. And this is literally a fly on the wall video of how it was made. Just a bunch of dudes in their prime making the most complex album of their careers on camera. Such a killer LP
Absolutely, so many memories to this album. I still remember pre-ordering it at my local Christian bookstore in 2007. I've love this band for almost 20 years now
26:11 Joseph Milligan mentions this same point in their live Covid album "Heavy Lies the Crown" (The Vital live lockdown album) that Vital is his second favorite album and that Cities is his favorite album they've ever done, and that's him talking in 2021. I absolutely love Vital. It's my personal favorite album of the band after Friendship and I've closely followed them since 2005 since I was 14, I'm 33 now. I'd say personally, that my favorite Anberlin records in order are: 1. Never Take Friendship Personal 2. Vital 3. Blueprints for the Black Market 4. Vega (this album is technically not released yet, but every song is that will be on it from Silverline EP + Convinced EP + Walk Alone + Seven (released only as live recordings) but I know the track listing from Apple Music and therefore know all the songs, and really like it) 5. New Surrender 6. Lowborn 7. Dark is the Way, Light is a Place (I understand these are the "official albums" and there are more, but it only makes sense to rank the official albums to me personally)
I never knew about this somehow. What was the cause? Also, did he actually play on this album? I know he was out before they even shot any of the videos for this album.
Very odd that you hate that about him. Pretty hateful. I would suggest you do some searching and find out why you hate things that don't affect you in any way. He doesn't preach to people. Relax.
Wait, what? That must be the dumbest comment I've ever seen. I don't understand how you can hate someone you don't know, let alone because of their religion 🤦
