    Alter Bridge have always been caught between a rock and a hard place. Creed fans didn't buy into them the way they should have because they were a reminder that Creed broke up. Everyone who hates Creed didn't give them a chance because of their association with Creed. In the meantime, they just keep putting ot great albums with limited radio support. They're huge in Europe btw.

It was written about a conversation between Myles and Mark about faith, Myles was having a lot of questions since his dads passing, and Mark is saying dont lose faith, maybe there is something out there, and Myles and Mark are even singing to each other in the song like they're having the conversation its epic!

    Hey guys. Just to let you know, alter bridges two guitarists are Mark Tremonti and Myles Kennedy (the vocalist), with Mark playing lead and Myles playing rhythm. In terms of the solos, Myles plays the first solo and Mark played the second solo. Nice reaction guys. I like the way you guys are actively talking throughout instead of some other reactions where they just stare into space for the whole song, occasionally commenting on something.

    Well done guys! I hope you appreciate your "ear". You both are very good at picking up subtle variations and changes, that's a pretty rare talent. You both would have made excellent theory students! This song is pretty unique, it is written in the key of F#maj and uses a D#min as a relative minor. I'd have to look but I'm guessing they are tuned down a half step. Anyway, Myles and Tremonti are excellent composers and tend to phrase their chord progression using the relative minor to bridge octave changes. This is what you are picking up I think. As for the question of whether or not this is "metal"... No, it's music. It's real, honest music. It is conceved in emotion and composed with great skill and honesty. Like Tupac, or Johnny Cash, or Miles Davis, or Prince... You can categorize it with a genre, but at the end of the day it is art.

There’s a song that they wrote that is so special to me called In Loving Memory. Mark wrote it for his mother that passed and have lost my mother 2 years ago, I can’t listen to it without crying. There’s a live version I’d love you guys to check out so you can feel how powerful Myles’s vocals are live. Thanks.

    Calm The Fire Alter Bridge. Covers Racism, especially beautiful song with stellar vocals, almost next level even for them. They performed it in my city after we had riots, brought tears to lots of eyes. They're a rock band, btw. Mark likes some metal in his solos, but I'd classify them as a killer rock band. Every member is so talented. As good if not better live, they are magical. Calm the Fire is a perfect example of that magic.

      They should check out the band Tremonti to hear Mark's vocal abilities. There are times when he almost **ALMOST** sounds like Chris Cornell and that's some of the highest praise you can pay to a rock vocalist. He doesn't have Chris' range and intensity, but he's got a bit of the timbre and emotion. He's also a ripping guitarist, of course, and a really, REALLY good songwriter.

    The term you're looking for in the second half of the chorus is "half-time". Same tempo or 'beat', but the rhythm within it is effectively playing half speed. Usually it's only the rhythm instruments while the original melody continues at the original timing over the top. Great review btw!

    Just adding in. So the lower vocals in the chorus is Mark Tremonti. A lot of the weird guitar sounds added in are Myles Kennedy. Myles actually does the first bluesy solo and Mark does the second shred solo. These 2 guys together have to be the best lyric and guitar duo I've heard. The more you get into them the more complicated you will realize they are. Mark Tremonti actually has a solo band called Tremonti. Definitely a must to check out.

    I'm a little late to the party but oh well! This band is so disgustingly good I can't believe it. That little acoustic intro was played by Myles. He and Mark Tremonti are both amazing guitarists, and they like to swap during solos, that amazing solo in Blackbird was played by them both, the 2 solo's here too. Trust me guys, every song from these guys is so good, you won't be disappointed no matter what song you pick next. They can do no wrong. I'm what you'd probably call a "music elitist" and I can safely say this is one of the best, if not the best band that has ever come out of hard rock. Blackbird's solo is considered by many to be the best solo in the world, beating even Stairway To Heaven. And I fully agree with that. They are critically acclaimed, people just overlook them due to the fact that everyone besides Myles was a Creed member. They have nothing to do with Creed now. Unrecognizable change and evolution in quality and talent. Be sure to check out the title track from "Fortress" next, it's one of their most "epic" songs, just like Cry of Achilles and Blackbird. You'll be blown away I promise! Thanks for the reaction guys awesome as always, you made my day :)

      Zeuzo You should see Kennedy live in the band he has with Slash The Conspirators. It's a little bit different sound then the Alter stuff but Kennedy's vocals are just as dynamic and powerful. He has incredible showmanship live too! Even his new solo album Year of the Tiger just shows how he, vocal wise, is like a rock frontman of the past. Defenitely reminiscent of Robert Plant and a little bit of the late, great Chris Cornell! His stuff from The Mayfield Four is very good too!

    I like to classify alter bridge as the literal “bridge” between what I call “radio friendly red state rock” and the likes of the technical musicianship and experimentation seen in prog and some of the other elitists genres of metal that really only specify niche vibes. The deeper veins of contemporary rock and metal is often misunderstood by those who don’t normally listen to it because it is straight confrontation, a vibe, feeling, perspective or vocabulary of sounds separate and intense in some cases because a lot is an expression of suffering ,confusion, or for the sake of shock value.
    Red state rock is bands like saliva, seether, theory for a deadman, nickleback, shine down, puddle of mudd. Basically all the bands your mom could enjoy on the ride to middle school. Like stadium country, but with some edge.
    That said, alter bridge is sick af, very underrated.

      Chris Johnson I truly believe that Blackbird is the greatest song ever written. Every time somebody listens to that song it just blows them away and stays with them. At some point in the future Alter Bridge will sit with the legends like Metallica and Led Zeppelin. I can't wait to see that day.

    • @TrumpTrain86

    Now you are ready for their newest album; "The last Hero" please play : Show me the leader.
    Myles Kennedy ; arguably the best singer in modern rock metal.
    Mark Tremonti : one of the best shredders out there with a great voice himself.
    Both have brought out solo albums which are great.

    I will have to check this band out closer. Myles Kennedy is from Spokane, my town. I have meant to check Alter Bridge out because of him. I am 64 years old so I missed them when they came out. Like your channel as it exposes us all to things out of our comfort zone.

    Since you guys like Alter Bridge, you should really give a second shot to Dream Theater. They're the 90s forerunner to bands like this. Try an easy one: "Pull Me Under" (which you might recognize if you ever played original Guitar Hero).
    Love the show, as always, fellas. 🤘

    • @Duncan_Idaho_Potato
      @Duncan_Idaho_Potato 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      "Dust" is a great choice ( I'm assuming you mean the title song and not the whole album, lol). It's more "ballady" than most of Tremonti's stuff but it's a GREAT song and a good demonstration of Mark's vocals. It's also some great lyrics and it resonates pretty strongly with me. It's a lot like Blackbird in that it's about losing someone and it's just full of great melody and a GREAT, passionate guitar solo.

    • @johnwoodberry3707

    I've gotta say George your assessment of most fans in the extreme or hardcore scenes reasoning is pretty spot on. Most anything deemed feminine, is frowned upon. Part of the macho, misogynistic aspects of that culture that I don't care for despite my love of the music. Only recently checked out this track and it blew me away!!! I Wasn't a fan of Myles Kennedy for some time, only now just coming around. Always liked Mark Tremonti's playing (even though I wasn 't a fan of Scott Stapp) and in Alter Bridge he shines!!!
    For my recommendation, again it's the Dillinger Escape Plan When Good Dogs Do Bad Things. I know it might not be either of your guys styles, but I'm interested in hearing your thoughts and seeing your reactions to it!!! Definitely have to experience this as least once!

    Creed was my favorite band for a long time, & then they went away. The lead guitarist, the bassist, & the drummer from Creed then went out & found Miles Kennedy for their lead vocalist & created Alter Bridge! His vocal range is amazing & he can shred on guitar as well. My kids & friends don’t agree, but I think Alter Bridge is the greatest band ever & I just listen to their 5 CD’s on a constant rotation; I really can’t stop ... lol

    Ive been trying to hype Alter Bridge for a decade and im so glad you guys found them and more people are getting behind them now. Way underrated. Also try Farther than the Sun, one of my favorite AB tracks
