Is this a Greatest Hits or a Best Of? I don't think they have enough hits (or even enough singles) for a Greatest Hits album :lol

For a "Best Of" album, this would be my pick, in no particular order:

1. One Day Remains
2. Burn It Down
3. In Loving Memory
4. The End Is Here
5. Come To Life
6. Brand New Start
7. Buried Alive
8. Blackbird
9. One By One
10. Slip to the Void
11. Isolation
12. Still Remains
13. I Know It Hurts
14. Show Me a Sign
15. Words Darker Than Their Wings

A bit of an odd mix, I know. This would probably change if I redid it tomorrow.

1. Find The Real
2. Open Your Eyes
3. Metalingus
4. Broken Wings
5. In Loving Memory
6. Ties That Bind
7. Come To Life
8. Rise Today
9. Blackbird
10. Watch Over You
11. Slip To The Void
12. Isolation
13. Ghosts Of Days Gone By
14. Wonderful Life
15. Words Darker Than Their Wings

Unordered. Exactly the same as the "Greatest Hits - 14 tracks" from a couple of weeks ago except I got to add Words Darker Than Their Wings. Definitely not my 15 track best of Alter Bridge, but that's what I believe a compilation would have if they were going for their most significant / well known songs and didn't deliberately go for a mix of singles and less played songs (if they did that there's not really any way to guess).

My top 15 tracks:

1. Slip To The Void
2. One Day Remains
3. Brand New Start
4. Still Remains
5. Metalingus
6. Broken Wings
5. Wayward One
8. Ties That Bind
9. Blackbird
10. Coming Home
11. Show Me A Sign
12. Fallout
13. Words Darker Than Their Wings
14. White Knuckles
15. The End Is Here

Something like that.

For a "Best Of" album I think a combination of singles, popular songs with the fans, regular live songs and favourites of the band is what will appear. This what I think are possible songs for such an album but my personal one would be slighty different.

Slip To The Void
Come To Life
Open Your Eyes
Brand New Start
Find The Real
Ghost Of Days Gone By
Buried Alive
Isolation
Broken Wings
Before Tomorrow Comes
In Loving Memory
Blackbird
I Know It Hurts
Rise Today
Wonderful Life
Show Me A Sign
Metalingus
Watch Over You
White Knuckles
Words Darker Than Their Wings

Yeah I'm going to go ahead and do a "Best Of" list - kind of agree that they don't have a ton of "hits" so I don't want to do a list of just the radio singles plus 2-3 tracks.

Metalingus
The End is Here
Ties That Bind
Blackbird
Slip To The Void
Ghost of Days Gone By
Words Darker Than Their Wings
Cry of Achilles
Calm the Fire
Waters Rising
Fortress
Cradle to the Grave
The Last Hero
Walking on the Sky
Dying Light

In album order, not track order.

True, but realistically, that's not what Alter Bridge management would put on a Greatest Hits album.

I was reading through this thread going "holy shit, Macca's here? Jim? Ryan? WHAT YEAR IS THIS?!

....then looked at the posts to realize they were from 10 years ago.
