Creed, Alter Bridge en Mark Tremonti. Door de jaren heen staan ze, in meer of mindere mate, nog steeds alledrie aan. Bij Creed is dat een trip down memory lane, maar AB en Tremonti maken gewoon nieuwe albums. Zo ook Alter Bridge dit jaar met daarop de fenomenale album closer Slave to Master.
Though mistakes we have made define us
Don't pretend we're alone
It's out of control
So where do we go?
Achtergrond bij nummer
Voor mij zijn de Alter Bridge en Mark Tremonti albums niet vernieuwend genoeg, of niet genoeg binnen mijn genre, om een eindejaarslijst te halen. Met name de zang gaat me na verloop van tijd irriteren (Alter Bridge) of de structuur van de nummers is me te eentonig (Tremonti). Maar diep in je carrière een "self-titled" album uitbrengen getuigt van lef en zelfvertrouwen. Dus gaat zo'n album zeker meerdere keren front-to-back aan. En voor mij kwam de grootse verrassing pas op het slot. Love it. Vooral vanaf 4:32.
Lyrics
Ease your mind
And do not fear
The violence in their eyes
Hold on tight
The new machine
Has left us out to dry
Even though this truth is hard to take
We're stepping back, we've lost our way
But still, still we try
Regardless of the death within
It's not too late to start again
Please give, give us a sign
While we still have time
Oh
Silent, still and waiting
A future of its own making
Untamed
Giving way to a fate, watch it burn
As slave turns to master
Replaced
Nothing's safe, now we all fear the worst
And it's too late to turn back now
Bow down to innovation
The new god a revelation
Untamed
Giving way to a fate, watch it burn
As slave turns to master
Replaced
Nothing's safe, now we all fear the worst
And it's too late to turn back
Too late to turn back now
As we watch it burn to the ground once again
Right now, though we fear the worst, steeped in doubt
We must fight till the end
Fools and tyrants
Stay behind us
Watch and learn as it falls
As it falls
As it falls
At the mercy of what will guide us
To our end if we don't
Wake up and take hold
And fight to atone
Though mistakes we have made define us
Don't pretend we're alone
It's out of control
So where do we go?
Oh, oh, it's out of control
So where do we go?
Oh, oh, it's out of control
So where do we go? Oh
Oh, oh, it's out of control
So where do we go?
Oh, oh, it's out of control
So where do we go? Oh
