Low Value Boy Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 I knew this song was going to be great, could just tell from the snippet from the Zane Lowe interview preview - certainly lived up to expectations as well! 1 1 Quote
Bucko Posted October 19, 2023 Author Posted October 19, 2023 Yeah this song is massive and easy to see why it was chosen as the opener. Quote
Kay Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 The bit where Mark sings about them not giving a fuck that you’ve died is so impactful. 3 2 Quote

prankerd14 Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 Do you think they will open with this song in the future? The beginning is magical ✨️ 2 1 Quote

I had to make sure I heard that line correct, slapped me across the face so hard. Mark bringing it like that this album really shook me to the core 1 Quote
Low Value Boy Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 I'd fucking love a run of Anthem, Anthem Part 2 and Anthem part 3 at a live show. The original Anthem is criminally underrated and it's a travesty that it hasn't been played live that much. 3 3 Quote
Jan Mortensen Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 That finale with the little bells in the background or chimes? Man, it’s so subtle but it throws that ‘emo’ era punk rock anthem in there too. I fucking love that they brought back ‘their’ sounds and all those 2000 era sounds like this. 1 Quote
Ghent Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 Anthem Part 3 is almost too good for me to even deal with right now with all of the other songs to revisit ? 5 3 1 Quote
Champ182 Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 Ok I caved and decided to just listen to this song to tide me over until tomorrow…… holy fucking shit. I want to cry, I want to run a thousand miles per hour, I want to be a better person, I’m just stunned. 3 1 Quote

boxelder Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 this song just delivers, no other way to put it. it just has everything we want. that outro is phenomenal. it’s like a grown up blink, one that doesn’t feel as disconnected from its roots in a good honest way, rather than pandering or going too simple. it genuinely does feel like a threequel to anthem and anthem pt 2, in the best way. anthem = the young band, talking about house shows and early days and adolescent angst anthem pt 2 = the world at large is fucked, how did it get this way? anthem pt 3 = confronting adult challenges and loss and death head on. resolving to never change but also grow 5 Quote
carlos182 Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 The bass on Anthem 3 (2:12) is the same as Anthem 1 (2:16). Quote

That’s like disrespectful to the album and your entire country as a whole. 2 1 Quote
NotNow Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 I still strongly believe this is the Lifeforms demo reworked… 1 Quote
blinkAVARacer Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 great addition to the anthem series and the outro is cool, but i probably wont listen to this one very much. it is a great opener for the album though. Quote
