1. I'd just like to say that "Breathe" being U.S. Best Buy-only is kind of a slap in the face to everybody who's been there since the beginning. It was also probably the ONE FOOLPROOF WAY OF ENCOURAGING LESS PIRACY.

2. HOLY SHIT "BREATHE" IS BEING RELEASED.

I don't think we are unless we got it through "legal" means

I wonder if its the original recording, or a re-recording? Like is it going to sound like ODR production or their current production?

Part of me wants it to be original just so we can hear 2004 Myles again, but an updated version wouldn't sound so...old. So there's a trade-off.

I wonder who's idea it was to get it released, though. Napalms or the bands? Can a record label make those requests/decisions?

We didn't even know that TABN will do their own review, so this is probably gonna be your first source for getting detailed information that you are asking for. We just wanted to keep the die-hards informed.
Appreciate ya! Yeah we'll be putting out our own review to the Alter Bridge Nation, on all our platforms VERY soon.

Also, your signature needs readjusting, it is FAR too big and goes against our signature sizing rules. Cheers

We'd appreciate it if people didn't.

The album isn't even out for another 3+ weeks. We'd really like this place to be buzzing on release day instead of it being old news because everyone downloaded a leaked copy and ruined it, ya know?

Mark's been trying to release those b-sides for years, I imagine Wind-Up getting bought probably helped things along.
For all of the hope that it brings...

That's true! Too bad it was only Breathe. Hopefully they can record any other old b-sides they had from that time and release them too! *cough* Cruel Sun *cough*

On My Way Now For sure. But I have a feeling not even studio version would beat that YouTube video version :cloud9 Especially with the current Myles.
