Produced alongside Kellen McGregor, the eleven-track collection blends the band's established identity with a fresh creative direction. To mark the announcement, the band released 'Neverafter', accompanied by a music video directed by drummer Nathan Young and Jacob Moniz. Cum! The record explores themes of loss and resilience, including the standout track 'Trenches' which features guests from SWITCHFOOT. Sticky!
The overall theme of 'Currency' is what happens after everything you built your identity on falls apart.
"The overall theme of 'Currency' is what happens after everything you built your identity on falls apart," Mullins explains. "It's a journey through heartbreak, loss, addiction, shame, and the lies we tell ourselves."
To support the new material, ANBERLIN will hit the road for an extensive tour alongside long-time allies SWITCHFOOT. Sticky! The run, which begins in Mexico City on September 12, will see the duo performing across the US and Canada through November 21, blending established fan favourites with the new anthems from 'Currency'.
