Re: Myles' Signature Sound - Trichorus Lead Lines

Strymon makes good stuff. Curious to find out if you can tweak it to get those sounds.

Re: Myles' Signature Sound - Trichorus Lead Lines

I haven’t used it myself, but maybe look into the Eventide TriceraChorus. Looks like they have it as a pedal as well as a plug-in. I’m not sure where Myles places his in the chain. I know it’s generally common to put modulation effects in the loop, but I’ve seen chorus go before the preamp in some r...

Re: Pawns & Kings (Alter Bridge - VII)

Well, I knew it would happen but didn't think it would be so soon. I'm taking a break from P&K as I've grown tired of it. I listened to the whole album again on vinyl yesterday and can safely say now that it still lands on the same level as ABIII. Some solid songs - I think Last Man Standing is...

Re: Pawns & Kings (Alter Bridge - VII)

The above caused me to have a look at the relative figures on Spotify out of interest, but the most eye-popping thing for me was that Island of Fools has a freakishly high number of plays compared to the rest of TLH - only Show Me a Leader and My Champion have more, which were both released prior t...

Re: AB VI Studio/Recording Thread

Walk The Sky is a record I enjoyed more at the time it released. It was better than The Last Hero and reminded me of some of the material on AB III, so I enjoy it for the most part. It didn’t really stay in my rotation after Marching In Time was released though. And now that Pawns and Kings is out, ...

Re: The politics of Pawns & Kings

Yeah when I listened to Season of Promise I didn’t think it came across as political at all. Myles’ description of it seems pretty straightforward to me and aligns with my first thoughts on it. Just a song about making the world a better place than you found it by passing good deeds and wisdom along...

You’re really close to figuring out why there hasn’t been another reunion if you’d stop and think about it.

Re: Mark about a Creed reunion

Imagine going through a terrible divorce where a lot of hurtful words are said and it drags on for months on end. 10+ years later, your old spouse may be a better person than they were during that time…

But that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea to marry them again.

Re: Pawns & Kings (Alter Bridge - VII)

This record is a 10/10. I hear so many elements working together from each previous album. This record is like listening to the entire history of Alter Bridge all at once. Production wise, absolutely stunning. Elvis’ team killed it this time. The production is definitely great on this one. The guit...

Re: Pawns & Kings - Rate the songs - Poll

I’ve only listened to the album twice but I’ll give it my best shot based on that. I’m sure this will change over time. 1. Fable of the Silent Son 2, Sin After Sin 3. Pawns and Kings 4. Stay (wut Greg why) 5. This Is War 6. Last Man Standing 7. Silver Tongue 8. Dead Among The Living 9. Season of Pro...

Re: The Official "Total Randomness" Thread

Oh ok. Seems simple enough. I'm always on the ball anyway when making car payments every other week on time (now that one I incur interest since it's structured to be paid off in a 5 year period. I only got one more year left). This should be even easier. Most cards are pretty straightforward. Do r...

This will sound embarrassing as a guy that studied business and has a degree in Accounting, but I need a crash course on how credit cards work.

Re: Pawns & Kings – post release reactions & user reviews

I think having 10 songs really makes this album stand out as a strong one. It’s able to have multiple longer songs on it without feeling like the runtime drags out, and I wouldn’t consider any of the songs to be filler (although Holiday is probably my least favorite). Love that it’s an album where I...

Re: Alter Bridge/Creed/Mark Tremonti Tuning Master List

That seems right on the money to me! Do we have any proof of Mark going 7 string on FotSS though? It sounds like a Ab and historically he went down to this on both 6 and 7 strings. There was a photo a couple weeks ago the band posted of a 7 string guitar in a case when advertising the upcoming tour...

Just finished up my first listen of the album. Has a lot of great moments but Stay is such an amazing track. I hadn’t listened to Sin After Sin previously but loved how well the lyrics and music matched together on that one. Fable of the Silent Son was also great. Really enjoy how much effort they p...

Re: The Official "Total Randomness" Thread

I’m pretty sure they’ve been making their Music app as useless as possible for loading MP3s manually to encourage switching to an Apple Music subscription.

I know iTunes uses to let you upload manual images for album covers, but I haven’t messed with it in the Music app since they rebranded it.
