Anberlin release reimagined version of beloved album 'Never Take Friendship Personal'
Anberlin have dropped a surprise reimagining of their studio album Never Take Friendship Personal today.
The new version of the record titled Nevertake features vocals from Matty Mullins, who’s been the band’s live vocalist since 2023. Mullins said this about the record:
“'Never Take Friendship Personal’ was the soundtrack to my life when I was 17. It shaped the most crucial years of my early music career. To now have the opportunity to step into the role of vocalist for the band that inspired me is beyond surreal. Re-recording this album with my own voice has been a full-circle moment and an absolute dream come true. We’ve poured our hearts into honoring the original while giving it new life, and I can’t wait for both longtime fans and new listeners to experience it in this way.”
Anberlin are currently on the road in support of Never Take Friendship Personal’s 20th anniversary. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now here. Nevertake is available on digital platforms and vinyl here.
