As the debut single “Wouldn’t You Rather” continues to climb the Active Rock charts, ALTER BRIDGE have released another track from their upcoming release Walk The Sky (October 18th via Napalm Records). “Pay No Mind” is now available on all digital service providers around the globe and a static video for the track can be seen below. The song offers a deeper insight into the expanded sound that Myles Kennedy on vocals/guitars, Mark Tremonti on guitars/vocals, Brian Marshall on bass and Scott Phillips on drums have adopted on their upcoming release. The debut single “Wouldn’t You Rather” currently sits in the Top 25 at Active Rock in less than a month since it was released. The video for the single is quickly approaching a million views and can be seen on KNAC.COMHERE.
For over 15 years, ALTER BRIDGE has been a band known for blurring the line between hard rock and heavy metal. Recorded in a way never done before, the album was born from complete song ideas created by Kennedy and Tremonti. These songs would then be worked on by the entireband to create the fourteen songs that would make Walk The Sky the listening experience it is. This varies from the band’s previous method going back to their sophomore release Blackbird where Kennedy and Tremonti would combine individual ideas and riffs alongside producer Michael “Elvis” Baskette to form some of the band’s most revered songs. From the opening vocal melody on “One Life” to the moving finale of “Dying Light”, ALTER BRIDGE have created a formidable addition to their music catalog. Songs like “Godspeed”, “Native Son” and “Walking On The Sky” are sure to be early additions to the live set. “Forever Falling” also marks a lead vocal return from Tremonti with Kennedy taking the chorus as done previously on the Fortress favorite “Waters Rising”.
The album is now available for pre-order at https://smarturl.it/WalkTheSky.
