The 4th Album - FORTRESS - Discuss The Album Here!

[Andy92]

Lover's still my least favourite on the record. The only part I like is the bluesy guitar part at the beginning

Interesting. Were you much of a Mayfield Four fan? I kinda get that vibe out of Lover.

As did Myles Kennedy and the TotalGuitar interviewer.....Coincidence?! I think not!

[Andy92]

I think the base idea of the song was from Myles' solo stuff too.

Yeah, Calm The Fire was a castoff from his solo record, as well... If I remember correctly.

[Andy92]

I think you're right.

Gosh I need him to finish that album haha.

[Decay]

I mean like urgently. Come on, Myles!

The truth has been spoken!

*Myles walks in and says it'll be released in 2020*

*Myles walks in and says it'll be released in 2020*

lets check his schedule for him....

AL 2: 2014
AB 5: 2016
AL 3: 2016
AL 4: 2018
AB 6: 2019
AL 5: 2020 SOLO: 2020

Myles sure is a busy man especially in 2016 and 2020.

[Decay]

Yeah, and it's a shame, really. That solo record of his has been collecting dust for way too long, since 2009. I mean, come on!

Can't he just tell the guys to give him some time to work on it? I hate to exclude either project/pull the fave card but he doesn't need to have a record EVERY two years with Slash does he?

[Andy92]

He seems to follow Slash around more than AB now.

[Decay]

He's just too humble to say NO. Even though he should, sometimes. The man likes to stay busy, that's for sure and I genuinely cannot wait for the day his record gets to be released.

(For the record, I think the only thing that needs to be done on there are the vocals... and of course, mixing/mastering and all that stuff that goes into the process)

Yeah Mr. Myles Kennedy. Won't say no to anything other than a Bee who just wanted to see what all the buzz was about at the concert.

[Decay]

lol yeah ^

It took me longer than normal to buy this album because i wasn't terribly enthused after streaming it. I keep trying and like a couple songs, but overall I feel its a flop. It just doesnt get me at all. Maybe 2 or 3 songs I like. The first two albums I like every song. 3 was ok and this one not so much.

Which 2-3 songs do you like, though? And what are the reasons for not liking the other songs?

Cry of Achilles, Addicted to Pain, Waters Rising somewhat and Uninvited.

[Jim]

Oh look a whole page of speculation

[DonHarry]

Don't sound so surprised.

[Jim]

98% sarcasm in my comment, fuckin typed words

[Jaredr24]

Slightly off topic but I just tried something on guitar and I think it would sound incredible. Imagine if someone did a mash up/remix and added CoA together with Ahavo Rabo Taco Salad...I may try this.
