In shocking news, Florida rockers Anberlin have announced that the band will be breaking up in 2014 after releasing one final album (via Tooth & Nail Records) and embarking on a farewell tour. A video announcement from the band can be viewed below:

Anberlin came onto the scene in 2003 with their debut album Blueprints for the Black Market. Their career thus far has included six full length albums, including the 2007 classic Cities and their most recent release, Vital.

Regarded as one of the most talented and respected rock bands in the 2000s alternative rock scene, this comes as sad news to many. What are your thoughts? Tell us in the replies!
