Review of Fortress

No group currently best embodies the ideal of Alter Bridge contemporary hard rock. What was initially "only" after the band's Creed, is now a reality that affects fourth disc with a (nother) album masterpiece, which has almost nothing to envy to the immense Blackbird 2007. It 's true, the predecessor of Fortress, AB III, was cute and nothing more, but Mark Tremonti and Myles Kennedy have found a way to wipe out any comparison, publishing a work that is indeed the sum of the previous installments, but also an imperious step forward.

Since dall'opener Cry Of Achilles compositions of Our take on un'epicitร  so far marginally explored, drawing liberally from heavy and progressive seventies, crafting one of the best songs of all time from their repertoire. Will history repeat itself at the end of CD with the title track, which also has an acceleration suggests that central to Black Sabbath felt about the recent 13. In the middle pieces pulled, hard but immediate as the first single Addicted To Pain and shocking Bleed It Dry and Calm The Fire, melody, and harshness influences seemingly so distant but ever so perfect in the sound of AB 2013 (the beginning the second passage in question looks like a piece of Muse!).

The riffs of Tremonti, often nervous and on the edge of heavy metal already abundantly honored only in the record All I Was last year, take a break in the fabulous Lover: back in the nineties, thanks to a stellar Kennedy, now in strong smell of Mayfield Four, a group that launched him towards the end of the nineties: a nearly 44 years played Myles is, without question, tHE hard rock singer of the moment. A few moments negligible (right Farther Than The Sun and the slow trademark of All Ends Well) internal to a release not to be missed.
