Alter Bridge – release first track/video “Silent Divide” from upcoming self titled album

Hot on the heels of the excitement from the recent announcements of their upcoming eighth studio album and their Blackbird Festival in Wales next summer, acclaimed rockers Alter Bridge are releasing the first piece of music in over two years, “Silent Divide.” The track from the quartet – comprised of Myles Kennedy on vocals/guitars, Mark Tremonti on guitars/vocals, Brian Marshall on bass and Scott Phillips on drums – shows the band is back and ready to pick up where they left off in 2023. The brooding track begins with the signature guitar tones of Kennedy and Tremonti before the rhythm section of Marshall and Phillips join in. The chorus is powered by Kennedy’s haunting descent as he sings: “Keep your head down, ride out the silent divide.”

Teased by the band earlier this week, a music video for “Silent Divide” is also available today. A comedic opening skit was released of Tremonti, Marshall, and Phillips calling Kennedy’s mother to get the band back together as Myles hangs in his mother’s basement. That scene gives way to a performance of the four guys playing together in a small room – a throwback to the way it all started for them. The video was directed by JT Ibanez.
