"Blueprints for the Black Market" is the first album released by the band Anberlin. It was released barely a year after the band formed, and was the only album that was released with guitarist Joey Bruce in the band line-up. "Blueprints" had one single, "Readyfuels", for which a music video was filmed. Though the album has sold over 60,000 units [ [http://www.sputnikmusic.com/album.php?albumid=7207 SputnikMusic -- Anberlin Never Take Friendship Personal] ] , its success pales compared to Anberlin's later albums, failing to chart on the Billboard 200.
