New Surrender [CD]

I was a little skeptical going into this release. I was such a fan of the last 2 records, and this time they had a new producer. On the first listen, I thought the record was above average. After leaving it in my player for a week while driving, the record soon moved to be one of my favorite releases of 2008. The songs lean a little more pop on this release, which could be a negative for some. Expect Anberlin to get some radio play from this release. I bought mine at Best Buy, so it came with the 30 minute DVD, which shows an interview with the band, and 3-4 acoustic songs from the album performed live.
