——Hey what is Myles singing for the background vocals at the end of Life Must Go On? Its hard to tell.

——Also I think there’s a difference between being a good guitar player vs being a good songwriter. There can be overlap but not always.

I know some songs that have great guitar work but also have vocal melodies and lyrics that I think are kinda meh.

-----Also the lyrics for Calm the Fire are rather strong. The first time i heard the bridge of that song I got choked up listening to it.

Finally my AB CD collection is complete! I grabbed One Day Remains for $5 at a small record shop in town I'd never visited!

Jamming out after work as I type this!

Even though Pawns & Kings isn't even out yet, I have a general idea of which songs will be my favourites off the record based off titles and track lengths :lol so I made a 20 track "Best-Of" double record for the TLH-WTS-P&K era of AB.

The Last Pawns & Hero Kings Walk The Sky
Side A. (50:42)
1. The Other Side (5:55) TLH
2. Native Son (4:16) WTS
3. The Writing On The Wall (4:28) TLH
4. Indoctrination (4:41) WTS
5. Cradle To The Grave (5:41) TLH
6. Wouldn't You Rather (3:50) WTS
7. Island of Fools (5:01) TLH
8. Forever Falling (5:11) WTS
9. Clear Horizon (4:57) WTS
10. The Last Hero (6:42) TLH
Side B. (58:56)
1. Pawns & Kings (6:18) P&K
2. Silver Tongue (4:19) P&K *could be replaced by This Is War or Dead Among The Living if I end up liking them more.*
3. Walking On The Sky (4:56) WTS
4. Last Man Standing (5:33) P&K
5. Stay (4:37) P&K
6. Symphony of Agony (5:34) TLH
7. Fable of The Silent Son (8:22) P&K
8. Dying Light (5:47) WTS
9. Sin After Sin (6:42) P&K
10. This Side of Fate (6:48) TLH

Do a lot of ppl not like the poppier AB songs?

They don’t have too many of those, but I’m generally okay with a song as long as it’s good.

I’m sure there’s definitely a section of the fan base who feels that way, I’m not one of them. But I also think it depends on what you consider “poppier” for them

All Ends Well and My Champion are in my top 10, I like them more than quite a few of their “epics”

It depends on the song, for example, I love My Champion but find All Ends Well to be cheesy and a bit boring.

Maybe Providence could have been worked on a bit more and then been an AB song.

Good call. I really love that song but it is a bit near the end of the Tremonti spectrum.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

Love those WWE posts. I'm not a WWE fan (nothing against it, just never watched), but seeing all those people singing along gives me chills. Kind of exciting hearing that many people singing along to Alter Bridge without being at an AB concert.

So Edge is back to using Metalingus now? Cool. The dream can still be alive for AB to finally play him out at a Wrestlemania. Day 2 of Wrestlemania in 2023 is on April 2nd in SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA. AB's final show at the US tour is on April 1st in Highland, CA (a bit of a drive from Highland to Inglewood, but still in SoCal). The cards are aligned to happen. Make it so, world.

He used The Other Side when he turned heel and made Judgment Day. Then, the group turned on him so he went back to being a baby face and using Metalingus. Weirdly enough, the group that turned on him are still using The Other Side as their theme. It's literally Alter Bridge vs Alter Bridge :lol

Personally, My Champion is probably my least favorite AB song ever. Other songs like Take The Crown that are more upbeat and "poppy" really aren't my style.

I am so glad Edge is back to using Metalingus. Heel Edge just doesn't do it for me.

I particularly want to share this song because it's heavily inspired by Alter Bridge. I dare someone to cover it.

I am so sorry, Alter Bridge. I tried so hard to emulate your sound that I unknowingly ripped off This Side Of Fate, a song that I'd only heard 3 times and I don't even like.
