Oh shit, that teaser slaps! Our first taste of a new tune and it already sounds killer!

Random question for y'all! Aside from the early One Day Remains demos, are there any later AB songs you would like to hear Mark take over lead vocals on? Personally, I'd love to hear him sing Show Me A Sign! It's slower, lower, sludgier... I think it'd be perfect for Mark's voice. It's an overlooked...

This is very tough. All of these albums mean so much for different times in my life... Here goes nothin'!

1. Dust
2. Marching In Time
3. A Dying Machine
4. All I Was
5. Cauterize

Ghost just announced a huge tour with Mastodon!
Two of my favorite bands, neither of which I've been able to catch live...
Finally, a cannot miss show that's coming to my city.
Lookin' like September 13th will be my first concert since Slayer in 2018!

I wouldn't even mind a decent mix of both deeply personal songs and angry political tracks if that's how Mark and Myles are truly feeling in their writing! It sounds like we're in for a heavy, proggy riff-fest! This could be AB's "...And Justice For All" and I'm all for it! ...On another, ...

Dark, heavy and complex, Mark says?
Let's! Fucking! Go!

This makes me think we could be in store for a decent blend of ABIII and Last Hero vibes... Dark and complicated with the one bright spot of hopefulness buried amidst the brooding? I'm sold already!

Congratulations! It's crazy right? I graduated in 2013, blinked and now all of a sudden I'm 28!

Turning 28 next month...

Total Randomness Rant incoming... All Ends Well? After living in a room at Motel 6 for over a year, struggling to pay the insane weekly bill and still have money to eat and commute around town (no wheels, relying on Lyft or Uber), we've been given an offer that'd be foolish to decline. Two of my bud...

https://hasitleaked.com/2022/alter-bridge-pawns-kings/ I wonder if this is the album cover. Not sure when we usually got covers for previous albums. I've seen that image around a couple times... I thought it was fan made based on the tour announcement. If it is the real cover, I'm not really a fan....

Yes! Hope and Sorrow!

Pawns & Kings is definitely an epic closing title track! October 14th! Let's goooo!

So I had to give it a Google. HYPOXIA is the condition of not enough oxygen in the blood and tissue.

The band is definitely sounding heavier on this album and I'm all for it! It took a handful of listens to click, but it has!

HYPOXIA. June 24. Let's go!

Goddamn this one hurt... Foo Fighters were one of my favorite bands in high school. Wasting Light in particular is a modern rock classic. Taylor was an animal behind the kit with a hell of an underrated voice as a singer! Seemed like such a chill dude who'd finally got his shit together... 10 differ...

Very cool! And done for an amazing cause! This is so surreal. From hearing Higher for the first time in a car commercial 20 years ago, to a decade ago sitting in study hall hearing You Waste Your Time when it dropped... To THIS another whole decade later! I'm officially convinced everything Mark Tre...

Whatever it is, I'm super hyped! Mark mentioned Frank Sinatra in a couple early Marching In Time interviews so I'm still thinking it'll be a set of older jazz standards... Well find out tomorrow!

Writing an AB setlist is a real challenge! There are just so many songs I wanna include! I tried keeping it a reasonable concert length and include some hidden gems... 1. Show Me A Leader 2. Cry A River 3. Find The Real 4. Metalingus 5. I Know It Hurts 6. Show Me A Sign 7. Native Son 8. Ties That Bi...

Myles needs to sing more high notes and low notes Mark needs to sing more in general Myles needs to do more solos Mark should write longer solos and more solos in the vein of Bleed It Dry Brian should get some bass solos Flip should get some drum solos They should try working with a different produ...
