46. Anberlin, Never Take Friendship Personal and Horsell Common
Manage episode 443268466 series 3605140
Forming in 2002, Anberlin released their sophomore record Never Take Friendship Personal in 2005, garnering praise for its ample hooks, sweeping melodies and accessible sheen. Eventually the band would go on to be signed by major label Universal Republic, experiencing significantly improved record sales, radio play and bigger touring opportunities, but it is Never Take Friendship Personal that represents Anberlin’s time in the scene the best.
Horsell Common were a 3-piece rock band from Melbourne, Victoria releasing their one and only full length record The Rescue in 2007, before calling it a day in 2010. The Rescue features high octane tracks like Good From Afar, delicate duets like Annie, If You’re Listening and a guest feature by Anberlin’s Stephen Christian on I’m Dead. The Rescue remains a criminally underrated release, by a criminally underrated band - owing in part to their untimely demise.
