I was under the impression usually a 3 or 4 pack of singles was sent to radio stations upon album release.

No, maybe its like that for some bands, but Alter Bridge decides their singles one at a time. It was only within the last 2 weeks or so that they decided for Achilles to be the next single. All this time, Addicted to Pain was the only single from Fortress.

Did anyone ever see an official announcement from the band or was it just Michael's tweet?

It was MIchael's tweet... but now that its getting played on a couple of radio stations I feel like its true. I was sort of skeptical until now

Is it unusual for a band to release a single without mentioning it?

Sounds unusual to me. If they want this to truly get big, it'll take a bit more effort than just releasing it as a single.

It's charting, so must be legit!

Get the feck in. They should announce it though and promote this sumbitch.
For all of the hope that it brings...
