Alternative rock outfit Anberlin have released CURRENCY, the band’s highly anticipated ninth studio album and the first full-length release to feature Matty Mullins as lead vocalist. Marking the beginning of a bold new chapter, CURRENCY builds on the momentum of 2024’s Vega, where Mullins made his recording debut on two tracks, and signals a renewed creative energy for a band that has continually evolved throughout its nearly 25-year career. Produced by the band alongside Kellen McGregor (Memphis May Fire), the eleven-track album embraces both Anberlin’s storied past and an exciting future, proving that growth and reinvention can coexist without sacrificing the band’s unmistakable identity.
On the new record, vocalist Matty Mullins previously shared “The overall theme of CURRENCY is what happens after everything you built your identity on falls apart. It’s a journey through heartbreak, loss, addiction, shame, and the lies we tell ourselves. Instead of staying in the wreckage, it’s about finding the strength to face the truth, let go of what was killing you, and become someone new. I believe that healing doesn’t begin when the pain ends, it begins when you finally stop running from it.”
CURRENCY is out now and streaming everywhere via Equal Vision/Civilians. Purchase the album HERE.
