What's a good, clean, iconic "hero" name, that people have tried to cut down and erase (not the name itself, but the person who bears it)?

This is a crazy notion... but we could call him "The Last Hero".

I'm going with "Moose" as well. Good or bad, that thread was epic. And the dude is huge like a moose.

* REVIEW TIME*

ALTER BRIDGE - THE LAST HERO

I won't do a song by song review because I can barely remember anyof it and I was on the rail so I couldn't hear too much detail.

1. I love the intro to the first track of the album. Its about a minute of per heavy instrumentals. I really liked the chorus too. There is a bit of a pause in the middle of the chorus that is very different from what we are used too.

2. 2nd song was eh to me

3. 1 song sounded like a pop song from the 90's that I can't recall. But it was dead on.

4. Like I said its a lot of detail that I couldn't remember from 1 times listening through but honestly they all sounded the same after awhile...

5. Myles sings higher than he ever has. He was hitten them high notes

6. Mark seems to have evolved with his solos. He surprised me a few times.

7. Myles has more solos on this record too. He has those jazzy stuff but also is a speed demon on some of those.

8. That one epic that they have was eh.

Right now I'm gonna give it a 6/10... It was just way to much detail at once and there wasn't a song that made me say holy shit! So.. I'm sure it'll be my favorite album at some point but I wasn't wowed.
