Cover songs – Anberlin

Modern rock band Anberlin masterfully blends musical genres and it seems they have a fondness for 80s music. You’ll hear hints of synth pop and industrial music in many of their original songs, but they’ve also covered a number of 80s hits.

Here they are performing “Enjoy The Silence”, which was Depeche Mode’s biggest hit ever, landing at #8 on the Billboard chart in early 1990.


They also covered “The Promise”, from the one-hit wonders, When In Rome, who took the song to #11 in 1988.



Anberlin has also covered the classic 1986 Smiths song, “There Is A Light That Never Goes Out”.


Anberlin has covered other tunes beyond the 80s…including Radiohead’s “Creep” and this classic from Bob Dylan.



All of the above cover songs can be found on Anberlin’s 2007 release, “Lost Songs”.
