Product Overview
Alter Bridge - The Last Hero (CD) This is Alter Bridge's fifth studio album one more than guitarist Mark Tremonti, bassist Brian Marshall and drummer Scott Phillipsâ band Creed released. The disc utilizes influences from both Alter Bridgeâs early days and their more recent material, and injects some new things into the mix as well such as alternate tunings and recording on a seven-string guitar for the first time. The Last Hero kicks off with ÓShow Me a Leader which takes a while to kick in but soon displays a sing-along chorus, beefy riffs and a shredding solo. This is a front-loaded album with the strongest songs on the first half. Thereâs a gem or two on the latter half, such as the power ballad ÓYou Will Be RememberedÝ that pays tribute to those who serve their country and community and the closing title track, a nearly seven minute song that flows from a mid-tempo rocker to a more intense urgent section before ending with a flourish. Most of Alter Bridgeâs albums have clocked in at more than an hour, and The Last Hero is their longest one yet TRACKLISTING 1. Show Me a Leader 2. The Writing on the Wall 3. The Other Side 4.
