Alter Bridge - Cradle To The Grave

ALTER BRIDGE have released a new video for the tune "Cradle To The Grave" taken from the band's fifth studio album, "The Last Hero", which was released last October.

The video is showcasing their performance from London’s O2 Arena in November last year.

That show will be documented on their upcoming record "Live At The O2 Arena + Rarities", which will launch on September 8 via Napalm Records. One of the biggest moments of the band’s career was the monumental show at London's famous O2 Arena on November 24th, 2016. The 19-track recording proves with a vengeance what an enormous presence ALTER BRIDGE have become on concert stages around the world. Myles Kennedy, Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall, and Scott Phillips tear through hits like "Farther Than The Sun", "Show Me A Leader," "Rise Today", and their masterpiece "Isolation", showcasing a band on the top of their game. Other highlights include the Tremonti sung "Waters Rising", the acoustic-driven “Watch Over You” and their mighty signature anthem "Blackbird”. In addition this release contains an exclusive full album length "Rarities"-CD that will give every collector cause for rejoice. The rarities CD features the limited release tracks "Breath", "Cruel Sun", and "Solace” alongside seven songs that have only come out to date in Japan. "Symphony Of Agony", the bonus track from the band’s latest studio release "The Last Hero” also gets worldwide release on this collection.

In a statement about the album, the label says: “The latest release includes an exclusive full-length rarities CD sure to excite fans everywhere.

“The album features the never-before-released tracks Cruel Sun and Solace, recorded during the One Day Remains sessions, as well as Breathe from the same time, which has only been available as a US retail exclusive.

“These tracks join seven other songs that have only been released in Japan until this collection.”

Live At The O2 Arena + Rarities will be released on 3CD, quadruple vinyl and CD/DVD, which includes a documentary shot around the O2 Arena show.

Earlier this month, the band announced they would play two shows at London’s Royal Albert Hall on October 2 and 3 where they’ll be joined onstage by the 52-piece Parallax Orchestra.

ALTER BRIDGE have now added concerts in Edinburgh, Dublin and Belfast which will take place after their London shows in October, see all the dates below.

Alter Bridge - My Champion

The American rock band ALTER BRIDGE is out on tour and make a stop at Annexet, Stockholm, Sweden for a show. With them they have the brand new studio album "The Last Hero". Support on tour is LIVING, see the dates below.

The Last Hero was written during the winter of 2015 while both singer Myles Kennedy and guitarist Mark Tremonti were on tour with their respective projects, Slash featuring Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators and Tremonti, with the recording process being finished during the spring of 2016. Regarding the sound of the album, Tremonti stated it to be similar to Fortress and Blackbird but they were planning on darker sound. The album name comes from the subject of being a hero in society and people's feelings of disillusionment with their current leaders. It also marks a departure from the band's previous visual style, with the grungy aesthetic of previous albums replaced with a more streamlined logo.

Today's tune "My Champion" is taken from Alter Bridge's new album "The Last Hero". "The lyric was actually inspired by thinking back to my situation as a kid," Myles says. "I was this really small, underdeveloped kid who had to work extremely hard to keep up with all of my peers. It was very frustrating. I would hear a lot of words of encouragement from parents, coaches, or teachers though. A lot of those things were stored away, and they manifested themselves in this song. I've been able to apply some of those concepts in my life a thousand times over since then."

Alter Bridge - Show Me A Leader

"Show Me a Leader" is a song written and performed by ALTER BRIDGE, released as the lead single from the band's fifth album, "The Last Hero". It was made available as a digital download on July 26, 2016, by Napalm Records, the band's first release on the label, except in the United States, where it was released by Alter Bridge Recordings via Caroline Records. The song's music video was released online on August 31, 2016.

According to singer Myles Kennedy, "Lyrically, the song reflects the frustrations that a lot of people are feeling with the current state of the world. The world is looking for trustworthy effective leadership and not this undignified dog and pony show that's really made a mockery of our system." He claims that the song "doesn't push an agenda; it simply expresses a very common sense of disillusionment people seem to be feeling at this point in time." Regarding the song's musical composition, lead guitarist Mark Tremonti said that Kennedy originally came up with the song's intro, and a part he had been working on himself became the chorus. It is also ALTER BRIDGEs first time using 7 string guitars on a record. The song, like the rest of the album, was produced by Michael Baskette, who has worked with ALTER BRIDGE since its 2007 album Blackbird.

Today's tune "Show Me A Leader" is taken from the upcoming fifth album The Last Hero - Out October 7th.
