Alter Bridge have made the title track from their forthcoming album Pawns & Kings available on all streaming platforms.
Their seventh full-length album – produced by longtime collaborator Michael 'Elvis' Baskette – will be released on October 14 through Napalm Records, and is described by the band as their "most aggressive collection of songs to date".
The title-track certainly ramps things up in the heavy stakes, Mark Tremonti's guitars sounding almost percussive with his pounding riffs. Chuck Myles Kennedy's soaring vocal over the top and its fair to say, even if Pawns & Kings is the band's heaviest effort to date, it hasn't lost any of the magic touch that has propelled the band into arenas and sold-out shows around the world.
