Alter Bridge's fifth studio album,"The Last Hero", was released on October 7 byCaroline Recordsin the United States/Canada andNapalm Recordsthroughout the rest of the globe. The CD was produced by longtime friend and collaboratorMichael "Elvis" Baskette(Slash, Tremonti, Trivium) and mastered byGrammy AwardwinnerTed Jensen.
Alter BridgevocalistMyles KennedytoldFaceCulturein a recent interview that even though the band's new album is called"The Last Hero", it's not necessarily a politically oriented record.Kennedyexplained: "The trick was not to get too directly political, because all that does is piss people off. One of the key emotions a lot of people seem to be feeling is disillusionment, and what I try to do as a lyricist is touch on these emotions."
GuitaristMark Tremontiagreed, tellingThe Pulse Of Radiothat the album title and concept is more general in nature. "Myleskind of ran with that as a theme for the record," he said. "It's a calling out for leaders in this world that you can trust and put faith in and, you know, it's just such a circus right now, especially here in the States, with everything that's going on. So it's just, you know, a call out to find new leaders in this world."
A previously unreleased song called"Breathe", first recorded by the band in 2004 during the sessions for its debut album"One Day Remains", was included as a bonus track on the Best Buy edition of"The Last Hero".
