bacardimayne Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 (edited) I love Myles with Slash, but he really belongs in Alter Bridge. He just sounds so much... cooler in this band. Slash for some reason seems to really capture his whiny screechy side. Edited September 12, 2012 by bacardimayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnar Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Debut is godawful sounds like fucking Creed Blackbird and AB III are improvements Tremonti`s riffing is better in AB still not my bottle of beer does n`t have timeless appeal I only listened to this band once and never will again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangelus Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Alter bridge is incredible. Tremonti is one of the best guitarists out there and Myles voice, I agree, is way more suited to Alter Bridge material than it is to Slash. That said, to truly get Myles main strengths just look for Youtube videos where it's just him and an acoustic guitar - he fucking shines there and it's transcendent and beautiful.

The Sandman Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I've always been surprised that we've not had a bigger, more comprehensive thread about them, because they are simply a top, top band. Not enough credit given.Picked up Live from Wembley the other day, having actually been at the gig. I must admit, I was actually disappointed with them then, as I think they were attempting to nail it all for the Live CD/DVD - but Miles was absolutely supreme, as you'd expect.Such a great group - I expect even bigger things from them in future. Very glad I've followed them closely since their debut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turn_It_Up Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 OK, I need some new music and you guys got me wanting to try some AB. Have only listened to a few random songs on YouTube.So what's the best album to start with? Or what's their best album, period? Is there a standout?Thanks...

eye2eye Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I like AB a lot, but my problem with them is that every song must have those big choruses and it's getting boring, like listening to the same song all over again. Nevertheless "Blackbird" is epic song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Alter Bridge is supposed to get in the studio next year. I think with more people knowing who Myles is with Slash, their previous CDs are prob. getting more attention, people in the US just saw Alter Bridge as "those guys from Creed with that singer guy".

st0n3r Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) I bought live tickets for them on a whim. I hope it's worth it. I only know the song blackbird, which I like. Are there any recommendations you guys could give me? Edited April 9, 2013 by st0n3r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangelus Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 In Loving Memory is beautiful, as is Watch Over You. Metallingus, White Knuckles and Slip To The Void are great heavy songs. And Ghost Of Days Gone By is one of my favourites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raz0r Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'm looking forward to this album, but I'm not expecting much from it. So far, they've had at least a couple songs per album that I've really liked, but I haven't cared for any of their albums as a whole.

Dangelus Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 This is gonna be my album of the year - Alter Bridge are easily my favourite band and this one's looking like their best yet. Leak already dammit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
