Re: Alter Bridge - Live At The Royal Albert Hall
Damn. He absolutely slayed that high note on WDTTW. It sounded good in the hall but I wondered how clean it would be on the recording. Just as good, if not better, than when I saw it in Spokane this past December: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJVazH48fQ4 >>>I wasn't going to watch anything, but ...

More Mark Lead Vocals, or just more harmonies?
I see a bunch of people pining for Mark to "sing more." To be honest, I don't think Mark should be singing lead on Alter Bridge songs. I am in favor of point-counterpoint vocal exchanges, and even more harmonies, but I do think that Myles should be the lead vocalist on all Alter Bridge tra...

Re: AB VI Speculation
I read a lot about TLH being too much of a sound wall to many users here. But I learned that the more you listen to each song, the more details and the more "musical finesse" you get out of the songs. Same with the RAH Addicted video. The more I listen to it, the better I can hear the orc...

Re: Why does AB ignore much of ODR in its live set?
Don't get me wrong. It's not like it is a major complaint. I just have always felt bummed they didn't play anywhere near me on the ODR tour, so I missed out on seeing those songs. As I said, I am a big proponent of a band playing its most recent album, and AB does a great job supporting its newest m...

Re: Myles Kennedy Solo Tour 2018
My family and I really enjoyed Myles' solo tour. I LIKE Myles' solo record, but being completely honest, its style isn't generally my thing. "Love Can Only Heal" is by far my favorite song on it, and lucky for me, he played it. I was hoping for a couple more Mayfield Four tracks from Secon...

Re: Why does AB ignore much of ODR in its live set?
They played some ODR songs on the last tour. Including Burn It Down or Shed My Skin, if i am not totally mistaken. I remember that too, in the shows leading up to the RAH gig, I believe. But they weren't played much, if at all, after that. And that was the first time those two had surfaced (please ...

Why does AB ignore much of ODR in its live set?
Forgive me if this has been discussed before. I did a search for ODR and One Day Remains, and didn't see it discussed. If it has been, mods, please just move it to the appropriate thread. But why does AB seem to ignore ODR a lot in its live set? I've seen them five times from Blackbird tour onward, ...

Re: AB VI Speculation
Seems like most of us are on the same page as to what we're hoping for. The "time" issue is always tricky. In this day and age, I totally understand the need to have multiple things going, so there's no real downtime, and to be frank, a continual stream of income. As successful as Creed wa...

Re: AB VI Speculation
All I'd like is for the album to feel/sound like the band, for better or worse, were in a room for a few weeks and just went with where the songs decided to take them, as opposed to assembling songs out of "parts" :) YES on this. Obviously I'm fairly new here, but I've followed the band r...

AB VI Speculation
It'll be interesting to see where AB VI ends up, stylistically. I figured we're probably a year or so out from the next AB studio record, which gives a lot of time to post up some wishes and speculation on where AB will go on AB VI. The biggest question for me is -- given that Year of the Tiger and ...

Re: Alter Bridge - Live At The Royal Albert Hall
^^ Well, done and done. Costs me about $63.00 with all the shipping fees included. I think it's good value. 2 CDs, DVD and bluray. Shirt and Earbook. I feel like it's worth it. Plus, Napalm has done a good job so far working with AB so it's not a bad thing to buy it from their store. Nice haul. I l...

Yes, a fellow Rycher! Welcome! QR doesn't get enough love around here, which has always been a bit surprising to me since I feel there are a lot of similarities between the two bands. I've been a massive fan from the start (which shows my age - meh) and had the EP on vinyl even before The Warning w...

Re: Alter Bridge - Live At The Royal Albert Hall
So, I'm thinking of getting the 2CD/DVD/Blu-Ray package with the shirt from the Napalm records US store site. Is this a good design of a shirt? Never have I would think to associate AB with skulls. Birds and stars? Sure. Skulls? Not so much. https://www.napalmrecordsamerica.com/store/pub/media/cata...

Hey people. I joined the forum a couple years back, but didn't really post much (I tend to lurk). But in the excitement of pre-ordering the Royal Albert Hall release, I figured why not. So here are some details on my "fandom" of AB: Discovered them through a friend in 2004, right as ODR wa...

Re: Alter Bridge - Live At The Royal Albert Hall
Went ahead and pre-ordered the White Vinyl limited bundle on AB's site, and then another bundle (different shirt with CDs/Bluray digipak) on Napalm's site for my wife (also a hardcore, but no women's shirts means I get two!) :rockon Looking forward to it. I've purposefully avoided listening to/looki...

Re: The Last Hero - AB Nation Discussion
How is Last of Our Kind/Symphony of Agony not on the album proper? What a great tune. Reminds me a bit of AB III a bit. Still Remains comes to mind with one of the guitar riffs. Anyway, album coming into focus for me a bit more. Finding Show Me a Leader, Island of Fools, The Last Hero and Last of Ou...

Re: The Last Hero - AB Nation Discussion
I think all of AB's records have been radio friendly. Over the years they have just expanded the technical elements of the songs, but the big choruses and sweeping melodies are always a part of their tunes. The Last Hero continues that. Personally, if you are in your 40s, and raised in the 70s and 8...

Re: The Last Hero - AB Nation Discussion
Hi. I've listened twice. The one thing for me that has stuck out is that it is, to my ears, the band's most cohesive record so far. Even the filler-like cuts go places where similar types of songs didnt go in the past. On the other hand, after two passes on all the other records, I had identified at...
