    Hopefully it's not too dear because I like the look of it a lot lol. :D

    I've had a few Zens and loved them :)

    It's best to shop around for MP3 player's, all i've had was a Sony MP3 then i was given the iPod Shuffle


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    Actually i've just remembered, i have a college friend who's going to see Alter Bridge in Wembley this year..... the lucky f**ker

    Will definitely do some shopping around. Was half thinking of an iPod Touch but I don't think I can afford one. :o

    Edit: ah the lucky b....... :p I'm following an English girl on Twitter who's seeing them 3 times in October, she's meeting them too :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    I'd love to change to an iPod Nano (are they the 1's with the screen on them), but my financial situation sucks,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,401 ✭✭✭✭x Purple Pawprints x


    I think that's the one my brother has. He loves it. :)

    I think I'd cry if that was announced... :D

    I think I'd cry if that was announced... :D

    I'd be over the moon if it was announced, actually i asked Michael Tremonti the very question a while ago, and he said ''Not for 2013, possibly looking at 2014'' :D

    Oh seriously?! :D

    Alter Bridge are my favourite band in the entire world, with Green Day and 30 Seconds to Mars closely following. I've seen both of them and cried so I'll surely cry if I see Alter Bridge! :o

    So what do you think of the name of the album? I like it :D

    Yes so fingers crossed for Alter Bridge in 2014, i've always wanted to see Green Day live, i'm not too keen on 30 Seconds To Mars

    The album title is awesome, let's hope the songs are too :D

    Green Day are excellent live, they really do put on a great show! Lol, not many people I know are keen on them but I love them. Might try go see them in November. I was hoping Green Day would announce a date but doesn't look like it'll happen.

    I've read a few different articles today but apparently the title track is the closing track. 3 more titles are:

    Bleed It Dry
    Farther Than The Sun
    All Ends Well

    Also read that the cover art and tracklisting will be revealed next week :D

    Well from what i saw of Green Day on Youtube, they look like an awesome live band, shame most rock/metal bands avoid Ireland :(, whooo 3 new song titles, at least we got the album title today, another week and we'll have the album cover & tracklisting :D, definitely getting excited

    If you get the chance to see them I would definitely recommend going! :D

    It is a shame. I was really hoping for an Alter Bridge date this year, especially when they're in the UK. Another band I listen to, Daughtry, are even less likely to come here. Fingers crossed Michael Tremonti is right, he generally is! :D

    Have a feeling that the cover is going to be different to the ABIII and Blackbird and be more like the cover for ODR.

    I'd love to hear a bit of piano on an AB song, just out of curiosity.

    I'll keep it in mind, you could always go to England to see Alter Bridge, i've never even heard of Daughtry... I'm thinking the cover will be of an old castle to go with the Fortress title, there will be acoustic guitar on the album....... And Fortress is out 5 days after my birthday - that's my present to myself sorted :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    New band photo :D

    943661_10151612680468558_1712999454_n.jpg

    Myles Kennedy looks so badass, Mark look's like he's planning world domination, Flip's thinking of something else, and Brian is giving the evil stare

    :D

    Yeah that's true. I'll have to get a passport first though. I'll keep hoping. :o

    I really like Daughtry. The singer was on American Idol the year that Kelly Clarkson won it. I didn't actually see it but I think he was probably way too good to be on one of those shows. You should look them up, they have 3 albums out. Coincidentally their fourth is rumoured to be out this year.

    I was thinking of something along the same lines for the cover and I'm also thinking it'll be dark, like grey and black/dark blue if you know what I mean.

    Looking forward to hearing the acoustic guitar. The only other song I can think of with acoustic guitar on it would be Watch Over You and I love that. :)

    Edit - such a cool photo. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,820 ✭✭✭grames_bond


    Really like the name of the album! Love the fact we are getting a new album! wooo Alter f*cking bridge!! \m/

    I dont mean to be pedantic but:
    I really like Daughtry. The singer was on American Idol the year that Kelly Clarkson won it.

    he actually was on it a few years later. He came 4th on the 5th season of "idol" - the year Taylor Hicks won it.......remember him? Didnt think so!

    Cool thing about Daughtry:
    Chris Daughtry is now the third most successful American Idol contestant in terms of record sales, behind only Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood (who both won their respective seasons!

    Anyway - WOOOOO ALTER BRIDGE! Have loved them ever since I heard Metallingus used as Edges entrance music in WWE!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,401 ✭✭✭✭x Purple Pawprints x


    Lol it's easy knowing I didn't watch it! :p I heard the song It's Not Over on Kerrang and went "OMG I need to know who that is right now!" I think I actually discovered Alter Bridge after Daughtry but I'm not too sure. Just Googled them by chance because I loved Metalingus.

    Anyway.. I love the name too. Can't wait to see the cover art next week. I wonder what the single will be.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_

    Given that Alter Bridge have a new album on the way, i'd imagine that their website will be redesigned


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,401 ✭✭✭✭x Purple Pawprints x


    I'd imagine so. Can't believe it's 3 years since ABIII :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 48,990 ✭✭✭✭Lithium93_


    I'd imagine so. Can't believe it's 3 years since ABIII :eek:

    Perhaps the website being redesigned will tie in with the album cover, 3 long years since ABIII, the wait will be worth it come September 3oth :D

    Or maybe all your sharing/retweeting of anything Alter Bridge related could be leading to your friends checking them out and finding an awesome band

    I really really hope so. They need to be heard by more people. :)

    I always get goosebumps watching this, Myles and an acoustic guitar is just beautiful, and when the crowd kick in on Watch Over You, extra goosebumps

    Japanese fans will be getting their hands on Fortress before the rest of the world, it drops in Japan September 18th. And a fan made cover for Fortress has surfaced

    Me thinks this would make an awesome cover, i actually jumped the gun thinking it was real until i saw the words FAN ART..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,401 ✭✭✭✭x Purple Pawprints x


    Just saw that... I want to move to Japan! :o

    That fan art is amazing, kinda wishing it was the real cover! Can't wait to see the real one though. :D

    We've waited 3 long years for a new Alter Bridge album, what's the harm in another 12 days wait :P, even though it's only the cover & tracklisting that's being announced, i'm like a kid at Christmas time just waiting patiently :D

    Yeah true. I wonder will we get it before the UK? It's being released in Holland on the 27th of September. :)

    Me too! I'm sitting here going "I wish it was Wednesday!" :o
