That bridge. Sorry. I'll be doing this whole play by play thing for the whole album... I'm really in love with this band. Didn't Myles come up with Bleed it Dry? The riff?

On to Lover. Sounds like Burn it Down initially, but now that Myles came in, I'm getting a very MF4 vibe about this song. Missed this tone from him:)

The verses sorta sound like Reigns On Me.
Amazing song. And Lover is one of my favorites.

I think the reason people love Lover so much, other than the fact its a great song, is because is DOES sound like MF4, but with a bit of an Alter Bridge twist :)

Yup, the intro and verses to Lover kinda resemble 'Reigns Over Me.' I love TM4 vibe I'm getting from that song. :)

As much as I enjoyed the songs this morning, I had to get back to bed and get a little more sleep before work tonight (12 hour overnight shift). Woke up a bit ago and gave it another listen, and damn. This album hits hard, AND it's a grower. I have a feeling this is going to be on repeat in my car for a while...

:yeahthat

Best fucking combo ever. I don't think they've ever sounded this strong and tight. Both of these guys sound beastly on this album!
