This is absolutely freaking incredible! Metal bands who appreciate the art of music enough to add a live orchestra to their songs deserve a tremendous amount of respect. I love it!
Don’t think he’s really responsible for it but sounds like Elvis Baskette took an eye on the mix. The dynamics got only little headroom and as you say, the sound is incredible.
Harrysound they used the orchestra in the right parts. You cant have too much going on in the recording or it becomes a jumbled mess. Im curious to hear the other songs like watch over you and all that. This song was definitely not written for an orchestra to shine. Others maybe more than others
I once met Tremonti after an Alter Bridge show. Just hung out outside after the show. Great guy to talk to. Very down to earth. He was honest about how passion for rock and roll in the US was fading. Yet he continued to do what he loved. It’s so great to see him (and the band) make music and have his dreams further realized. Can’t wait for this album.
LuckyDC i dunno... Miles' voice is great but he is starting to ahow his age, i've seen many live performances of AB and is becoming increasingly harder for Mr. Kennedy to sustain high notes like in for example "breathe again"
Still worth commenting on all these years later. The video of this concert is so very good. It must have been phenomenal to see it live. I harbor 'concert envy' to every person who was there.
I was there - in the bars prior to the show, i spoke to people from ALL over the world. USA, NZ, Poland, Australia, Germany, Brazil and even Cuba. It was the best night of my life.
Elle Lawliet it's fine. The guitars sound like an individual pick and strum keeping the live sound and the vocals have a good cross between live and studio. O2 sounded like a damn cave. Thats fine if you dont like it, but for the general population who like to test speakers and listen on a good set, this is killer and they allowed a good headroom without it being too echoey
13 reasons why I love this: 1. Alter Bridge, one of the best bands of all time 2. The orchestra; many don't like mixing genres, but I love the layers it adds 3. Mark Tremonti 4. Miles Kennedy 5. Brian Marshall 6. Scott Phillips 7. The crowd 8. Head banging 9. Technical and intricate melody and riffs 10. No gimmicks, autotune, back tracks 11. Mark Tremonti one leg up solo pose 12. Multiple albums and cross performances from each member to hold you over each season 13. Meaningful, profound lyrics and musicianship that hits you to your core Rock music live is literally the best. I've seen pop, jazz, reggae, classical, theatre, festival...EVERYTHING bc I love music. Live rock music TAKES IT ALL
This was hands down the best Alter Bridge performance, It was such a magnificent show and a magical evening! Royal Albert Hall is probably most majestic venue! I am so glad the Blu-ray is coming out for everyone to see the experience! #alterbridge #royalalberthall
+Guitar Guru I am sure they were great at Red Rocks. But have you seen them perform with a 52 Piece Orchestra at one of the most prestigious and majestic venues in the world? It adds a totally different dimension. It was a magical night. It's once in a lifetime experience.
Almost 2 years later and this still BLOWS ME AWAY!!...Goose bump inducing progressive rock monsters...Scott kicks serious ass, and Myles has truly one of the most epic rock voices of all time...can only imagine what it was like to be in an orchestra and be asked to participate in this...religious experience....way to go boys...
Addicted To Pain Alter Bridge Tell me how it feels to live a lie Tell me do you know that it won't ever be the same You can't deny, the house of cards just hit the floor Don't tell me you can save it in the end There's nothing you can do 'Cause when it's gone, you know it won't come back again But you don't listen anymore You're addicted to pain Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows So addicted to face In time you're gonna lose it all If only I had said this long ago If only I had found a way to tell you all the things you should've known But you were lost right from the start How the hell are you the one to blame You've done no wrong, you gave it all So why the hell did you have to change You broke your back, she broke your heart You're addicted to pain Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows So addicted to face In time you're gonna lose it all Cry out You're nowhere now She sold you out You're gonna lose it all Cry out You're nowhere now Just tear it down You're gonna lose it all You're addicted to pain Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows So addicted to face In time you're gonna lose it all You're addicted to pain Sometimes it seems like nothing else matters You're too addicted to face In time you're gonna lose it all Cry out You're nowhere now In time you're gonna lose it all Cry out You're nowhere now You don't live it anymore Cry out You're nowhere now In time you're gonna lose it all Cry out You're nowhere now You don't live it anymore
That note. Words Darker Than Their Wings. Unreal. Bravo! These guys are amazing. So diverse and so talented. On top of everything they are on the stage they are all just the nicest people. I can't wait until the DVD comes out! What a treat!
Miles doesn't need to be massively up front in the mix because his voice has such a juicy set of frequencies that seem to slice right through the mix. Now Dio on the otherhand was always lost in the mix which is a crime against humanity. For all the comments on here about the sound being wrong. Go try and do that in a huge venue with a 7 second reverb and a 40 piece orchestra up against a rockband. Good luck. I think they struck it right.
Agreed. The people commenting on the balance of sound being wrong would probably struggle to get a vocalist to cut through in a 4 piece band at a venue with a half second reverb.
Im in my 40's now. If they Myles and Alter Bridge had been about when I was in my teens then the likes of G'n'R wouldn't have been as big as they were. This man is a true rock god
Miles Kennedy's voice and mark playing that guitar with an orchestra like that is like putting a V12 supercharged engine in a small car the power is just nuts and totally blows you away.

Honestly, Myles Kennedy has one of the best live voices. It's such a treasure to hear their live videos.
@Rock n Roll Machine there are links to download
Ja melodisch und so geil hart !💪
He's up the With James Hatfield
@@DEATH-_-MXSSIXH LOL, James aint got shit on Myles IMO. Myles is just on a different level.
Alter Bridge should be recognized as one of the greatest live bands of all time
Yah. Not bad, at all. Thinking top30..like29
Adding an orchestra just brings the whole sound up to the ceiling, what an absolutely amazing performance!
Alter Bridge is criminally underrated.
It's so true
@@ThorHammer88 they got most of recognition that also because of Edge 😂
This is absolutely freaking incredible! Metal bands who appreciate the art of music enough to add a live orchestra to their songs deserve a tremendous amount of respect. I love it!
Damn this gave me chills. Whoever was hired to capture the audio for this killed it. Its like a studio recording. I am seriously stoked right now
michigan1777 I was thinking the same! The mix is simply amazing!
Don’t think he’s really responsible for it but sounds like Elvis Baskette took an eye on the mix. The dynamics got only little headroom and as you say, the sound is incredible.
theandiller its definitely possible. Sounds way better than o2 arena. Whoever did that did not do well at all
Can’t hear the orchestra enough
Harrysound they used the orchestra in the right parts. You cant have too much going on in the recording or it becomes a jumbled mess. Im curious to hear the other songs like watch over you and all that. This song was definitely not written for an orchestra to shine. Others maybe more than others
Best live band on the planet 2023
I once met Tremonti after an Alter Bridge show. Just hung out outside after the show. Great guy to talk to. Very down to earth. He was honest about how passion for rock and roll in the US was fading. Yet he continued to do what he loved. It’s so great to see him (and the band) make music and have his dreams further realized. Can’t wait for this album.
Myles Kennedy's voice is in top form.
LuckyDC i dunno... Miles' voice is great but he is starting to ahow his age, i've seen many live performances of AB and is becoming increasingly harder for Mr. Kennedy to sustain high notes like in for example "breathe again"
he has always been
Have you heard Words Darer than their Wings then? The high note he sings for that is eargasmic.
In case you didn't know, he is addicted to pain. This is extremely troubling.
@Jarmund - I'm referring to this performance...are you the kind of donkey who argues for the sake of argument?
Still worth commenting on all these years later. The video of this concert is so very good. It must have been phenomenal to see it live. I harbor 'concert envy' to every person who was there.
I was there - in the bars prior to the show, i spoke to people from ALL over the world. USA, NZ, Poland, Australia, Germany, Brazil and even Cuba. It was the best night of my life.
"Alter Bridge - Addicted to Pain" best guitar riff ever.
I'm a simple man. When I see Alter Bridge releasing recordings, I buy them.
Mark’s technique is next level...and Myles voice..pff 🤷🏻♂️💯 no words to describe...just amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Every member makes AB such a power force! Brian's killer bass lines..Flips effortless perfection!
First official AB live recording with proper drum sound.
Sounds brutally good 😎🤘🏼
Still they can't get the guitars and the vocals right
It drives me crazy
Elle Lawliet it's fine. The guitars sound like an individual pick and strum keeping the live sound and the vocals have a good cross between live and studio. O2 sounded like a damn cave. Thats fine if you dont like it, but for the general population who like to test speakers and listen on a good set, this is killer and they allowed a good headroom without it being too echoey
michigan1777 O2 sucled aaa
I had no problems until 0.50 kicked in : from this point it's all overlayed and confused..
Elle Lawliet that’s what I meant. It’s kinda like Baskette’s signature that dynamics got only little headroom.
best vocalist ever!
that's not even an overstatement
My god, this is one of the most electrifying performances I've ever seen!
I would love to hear how the orchestra felt playing with the greatest rock band on earth. What a massive buzz that must have been for them.
See? results of not doing drugs.Getting better every day.
i wondered: How old is Myles? i was like: WTF?
He gets 50 in November 2019. i would have guessed that he is maybe 30 or 35.
Who did drug?
@@콩콩따-l5u Apparently Myles did for a spell. He talked about that in a Loudwire's video
@@nobodynobody3182 yeah, Myles said that he woke up one day and realized that drugs were a waste of his time.
@@nobodynobody3182 is this a joke? mark got kicked out of Creed. Band. ?. wow. LOL LOL LOL
This is what heaven looks like
The ending is incredible. The orchestra made the difference. Amazing work by you guys.
Yeah that outro was super epic!
This my friends is what you call MUSIC.
Alter Bridge with the Parallax Orchestra..... a live match made in heaven.
I've been waiting for an album like this since Metallica's S&M album. Alter Bridge are amazing
Just in case you didn't know, Metallica are doing a S&M2 in September.
13 reasons why I love this:
1. Alter Bridge, one of the best bands of all time
2. The orchestra; many don't like mixing genres, but I love the layers it adds
3. Mark Tremonti
4. Miles Kennedy
5. Brian Marshall
6. Scott Phillips
7. The crowd
8. Head banging
9. Technical and intricate melody and riffs
10. No gimmicks, autotune, back tracks
11. Mark Tremonti one leg up solo pose
12. Multiple albums and cross performances from each member to hold you over each season
13. Meaningful, profound lyrics and musicianship that hits you to your core
Rock music live is literally the best. I've seen pop, jazz, reggae, classical, theatre, festival...EVERYTHING bc I love music. Live rock music TAKES IT ALL
Erica the red head it's Myles not Miles you copy paste idiot
Rathnavel ram
Woah man, might just be autocorrect, mine corrects Myles to miles
Sam Vimes May be dude .... Just saying 😉
the mix of genres,best thing that alter bridge maked!
You shouldn't love this. He is addicted to pain. This is extremely troubling.
I'm officially addicted to Myles Kennedy voice!!!
The guys from Alter Bridge are truly on top of their game, simply awesome!!!
Tremonti is a legend.
This was hands down the best Alter Bridge performance, It was such a magnificent show and a magical evening! Royal Albert Hall is probably most majestic venue! I am so glad the Blu-ray is coming out for everyone to see the experience! #alterbridge #royalalberthall
Yasser Jamil you’ve clearly never been to Red Rocks
i went to that concert
+Guitar Guru I am sure they were great at Red Rocks. But have you seen them perform with a 52 Piece Orchestra at one of the most prestigious and majestic venues in the world? It adds a totally different dimension. It was a magical night. It's once in a lifetime experience.
The best Band of The moment. Simply perfect...
I can't get enough of this guys voice!!!
Wow this is awesome
Almost 2 years later and this still BLOWS ME AWAY!!...Goose bump inducing progressive rock monsters...Scott kicks serious ass, and Myles has truly one of the most epic rock voices of all time...can only imagine what it was like to be in an orchestra and be asked to participate in this...religious experience....way to go boys...
These guys are not prog lol
Myles sings this and plays the rhythm. What a maniac. And his tone. Wow wow 👏😮
Oh my word, this is phenomenal!!!
I couldn't agree with you more!😊 This IS *PHENOMENAL!* 🤘🔥🎶
It's so unfair how these guys are underrated!
Amazing.
Simply amazing.
BEST BAND EVER.
fede camusso Agreed. I have loved AB since the beginning. They truly are... the best.
awesome band!
The Orchestra just makes the band blossom....
First time I heard this group...they're awesome bordering on legendary.
What a underreated band. They deserve too much respect and popularity
This + Dolby Digital 7.1 HD Surround Sound = pure amazement!
AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Man these guys are so good live. Is there a band that is head and shoulders above these guys? I don't think said band exists.
This is so awesome
Love Alter Bridge. Them with all the other instruments and musicians so powerful and such good examples for young men and women
That orchestra 😮
They Rock!!
Addicted To Pain
Alter Bridge
Tell me how it feels to live a lie
Tell me do you know that it won't ever be the same
You can't deny, the house of cards just hit the floor
Don't tell me you can save it in the end
There's nothing you can do
'Cause when it's gone, you know it won't come back again
But you don't listen anymore
You're addicted to pain
Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows
So addicted to face
In time you're gonna lose it all
If only I had said this long ago
If only I had found a way to tell you all the things you should've known
But you were lost right from the start
How the hell are you the one to blame
You've done no wrong, you gave it all
So why the hell did you have to change
You broke your back, she broke your heart
You're addicted to pain
Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows
So addicted to face
In time you're gonna lose it all
Cry out
You're nowhere now
She sold you out
You're gonna lose it all
Cry out
You're nowhere now
Just tear it down
You're gonna lose it all
You're addicted to pain
Too blind to see you're lost in the shadows
So addicted to face
In time you're gonna lose it all
You're addicted to pain
Sometimes it seems like nothing else matters
You're too addicted to face
In time you're gonna lose it all
Cry out
You're nowhere now
In time you're gonna lose it all
Cry out
You're nowhere now
You don't live it anymore
Cry out
You're nowhere now
In time you're gonna lose it all
Cry out
You're nowhere now
You don't live it anymore
Excellent performance. Ya'll kill it.
One of the best shows I have ever been to, can’t wait for this to come out. Best band in the world 🤘🏻
This can only be described as a life-altering experience. It's indescribable. I mean how could something so heavy be so freakin beautiful
My...GOD!Simply SPETACULAR!!!
WOW!!!!!!!!! What a voice, band, symphony & an online experience. TY for my dose of music!
They just don't sing, they hit, deep in your soul.
I love how he nails the solo and at the end he has this look like “Yeah yeah I fuckin know I’m the best”
Alter Bridge with Orchestra????? Be still my heart!!
I Love this voice...
Myles sings incredible and plays bad ass guitar at the same time. Its insanity.
That note. Words Darker Than Their Wings. Unreal. Bravo! These guys are amazing. So diverse and so talented. On top of everything they are on the stage they are all just the nicest people. I can't wait until the DVD comes out! What a treat!

He probably sounds louder because he is addicted to pain
Nice one :)
Agreed. The people commenting on the balance of sound being wrong would probably struggle to get a vocalist to cut through in a 4 piece band at a venue with a half second reverb.
Your "dissin" Dio to build MK? That's your statement?? AYFKM..🤭🤭🤭
It's always the under rated bands that perform the best live
Im in my 40's now. If they Myles and Alter Bridge had been about when I was in my teens then the likes of G'n'R wouldn't have been as big as they were. This man is a true rock god
The added strings really bring this already great song so much more energy
tremonti is a monster on the guitar and the voice from myles is amazing
This is just amazing....
I simply can't get enough of this. Pure magic, OMFG it gave me goosebumps!
Taking some of my absolute fave AB songs to another level. AND.....that axe Mark!!!🔥🤘🏽🔥
Perfect
Myles is so incredibly calm... He's chillin'.
Unreal! For my money, they’re the best band making music in the last 10 years.
My head is full!!! My heart is filled!!! with strenght!!!
Perfeito, magnífico, Myles sempre nos surpreendendo com sua voz, homem que sobra talento ❤️❤️❤️
This group is amazing!!❤....the best.❤❤❤❤

This is some of the best live mixing I've ever heard
No words! This is awesome!

Vocês são simplesmente os melhores do mundo!!!!
Amo vocês....
this my favourite band
The best hard rock band, period! 💯🤘🔥 Also, Mark Tremonti and AB's Blackbird are the reasons why PRS CU24 is my first "pro" guitar.
You can't deny even though you can hear the Symphony behind, Myle's and Mark's guitars overpower them, that is the power of Alter Bridge.
Simplesmente fantástico!!!!!
This make me Goosebumps
Didn't have incredibly high expectations of this based on the mixing of previous live albums but wow oh wow. That was everything I wanted and 10x more. INCREDIBLE . Can't wait for this album!!
This music destroys a little cancer inside me. Give me strength god.
Simplesmente MARAVILHOSO!!!!
that solo was on point! just perfect.
Queremos Alter Bridge aqui no Rio grande do sul, Brasil!!!
Banda top.
Amazing! Just AMAZING! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Perfeito! Sem palavras!
An orchestra always makes a rock performance sound better. Makes it sound more grand.
