Here you have a Swedish band who plays a groovy sort of retro rock with garage-flirts all over. And they're doin' it really good with a lot of help from the producer Björn Öqvist who've worked with SpaceAge Baby Jane and Pennebaker mentioning two. Third out - the cool and softer "Long And Lonely" is one winner and the rocker "The Best Kept Secret" that smells Television a long way is another one (with Chris Cacavas from Green On Red as a guest). Television is one name to mention when you compare the band to others... I would also wanna mention The Strokes, a young and horny Costello and Velvet Underground if they would have been focused on melodies instead of drugs. A really well done filet of music.

Anberlin band member Stephen Christian has offered the explanations that he planned naming his first daughter Anberlin and that the name was a modification of the phrase "and Berlin" from a list of cities Christian wanted to visit. The one story that Christian asserts is true, however, is that he heard the word in the background noise of the Radiohead song "Everything in Its Right Place".
