The Last Dusterize

Post by One Drew Remains »

After revisiting the last two Tremonti releases in the last couple of days, I was wondering what ideas everyone thought would've been good AB songs. Also because I just heard that podcast where Mark said he heard Standing In The Sun, and thought what a great AB chorus it would have been.

Obviously Unable to See and The Cage stand out for me. But can anyone hear any other parts, or songs that would have fit in nicely from the last two Tremonti records? Thought it might make an interesting topic.

Take Dusterize, replace the band members with the rest of AB, switch Mark and Myles' vocals around (Mark now back and Myles front again) and there you have AB 6 and 7. All the songs he did on those two were worthy of AB imo.

The song "Dust" sound very AB to me.

Dark Trip possibly considering some of the moodier songs AB has done. Maybe not the exact same arrangement, but I could see that being close to an AB song.

When I listen to "Betray Me", I always think that it would have worked really well on an AB album.

Providence... That song has AB written all over it. Seriously wish that bridge was a minute or two longer.

Tbh it took me a little while to get in to Marks "solo" stuff as I just felt it would all sound better with Myles singing. But now I really enjoy Marks voice too.

The second I heard Providence at the Listening Party all I could think of was ABIII, and I still feel that way.

Yup, that song sounds a lot like how I imagined Waters Rising was going to sound before Fortress came out.

Never Wrong reminds me a lot of Break Me Down, but that's not a good thing.
For all of the hope that it brings...

I like the separation of Tremonti vs AB...but of course some songs are completely crossovers.
Sympathy
Providence
Fall Again
Unable To See
Dust
Never Wrong

Too bad, because the production on Dust was far superior than both Cauterize and The Last Hero (and yes, I know Cauterize and Dust were written and recorded at the same time, but I'm positive because of the sonics that they went in and remixed Dust prior to release because of the muddiness of Cauterize).

I really like the production of The Last Hero. Elvis always does better on AB albums than on Tremonti albums.
The intro of Cradle Of The Grave reminds me of the intro of Fall Again. And to be honest, fading in some notes doesn't sound cool in both cases.

I'm with you, Flet. Dust sounds better sonically than Cauterize to me.

Yep, agreed. Dust sounds better than Cauterize. Certain songs like MLM and Tore My Heart Out have a lot of punch that the Cauterize album lacked in several songs due to the muddiness. For example, i'll never get over how badly Cauterize and Tie the Noose sound
