I hate it when people's opinions on something like this are criticized as negative or positive. The freakin thread is called "Best and Worst Alter Bridge album." Do you want people to say "Fortress is the best album and the worst is obviously SIKE there is no bad there is just moar ba...

I don't understand what is preventing this band from having a 24-hour long album

Drip. Drip. Drip. Drip.

IMO, Burn it Down is this band's most underrated song. That sounded really fuckin cool. I wish they brought it out more.

Have a strong inclination that it's Indoctrination which would be a sensation that rocks this nation

Ya, One Life is a winner. That's the direction I wish they'd go with a lot of their songs. They can still have the heavy, head-banging shit, but that sound of music perfectly compliments Myle's voice. I also believe that it provides a bit more room for creativity, especially with the level of produc...

Did any of the chorus melodies remind you guys of any other songs you can compare to?

This is around the time frame that iTunes previews from an obscure country's iTunes begin to get posted for the new album. Be alert.

Wait, how can you not hear the guitar solo lol. Are you trolling because it's actually a pretty damn good one. My fav of the solos on this album so far.

I'm not sure how many Sonic Adventure fans are on this board, but who else hears nothing but Crush 40 on this song when the lead comes in at 0:22? I swear I was gonna post this yesterday, but not about that part in the song you referenced. For whatever reason, the solo at the end reminds me of a so...

I'm not even a guy who has expensive headphones and normally gives af about that stuff. But you can absolutely hear a clear difference, even from a novice's (me) perspective.

It's night and day when you can hear individual instruments in a cleaner production. It's still far from perfect, but imo, it's the "cleanest" song of the 4. Even if you don't like it, it's broken down and cleaner sounding.

I don't get the "sounds like slash"! To me it sounds like a Tremonti songs for the chorus riff and bridge. And sounds like AB on verse and pre chorus Chorus kind of reminds me Motley Crue. I like the song, but if I have one criticism, it's that I feel like the chorus felt like it should'v...

Fav song of the 4. Love the subtle Breaking Benjamin vibes between verses. Been waiting for them to ease of the accelerator with the heaviness and give us something that we can just listen to that's a little bit more simple, easier on the ears.

I don't know whether to be shocked that anyone took that post seriously, or whether I should just continue being disappointed.

It'll be cool to hear Alter Bridge interview Alice Cooper and Slipknot. They're always adding to the skillset.

I'm not a Creed troll, I'm a Scott Stapp troll. Get it right.

I mean, forget about the joking for a second. He's been recorded saying objectively crazier shit than that. Like batshit crazy shit. Saying that Jesus wants him to return to Creed is relatively tame.

That was his consistent sound throughout ODR, which was written prior to his arrival. That album is the best his voice has ever sounded, including on MF4, imo. I mean it's cool to see his wide range, but the types of songs that he was maintaining this power in were much more difficult than the pace ...

That's a disproportional reaction to the joke.
