Becoming The Archetype The Physics of Fire
Physics Of Fire does not disappoint as a follow up to their first album. While it incorporates a more progressive and technical style than before, the change works out very well for them. All of their strengths are on full display here including both ferocious and clean vocals, tight and complex drumming, and mind blowing guitar work performed by a new guitarist for the band. After the somewhat slow and soft introduction, the album erupts into a metal assault on the ears clocking in at just under an hour. All songs are very well written.

Alter Bridge One Day Remains
Coming off the heels of the super band Creed, Mark Tremonti and his former band mates parted ways with Scott Stapp to create a rock masterpiece incorporating a few stylistic tendencies from Creed all the while creating their own brand of metal tinged rock. Tremonti's intricate and mind blowing riffs draw most of the attention musically while the supporting bass and drums provide an effective foundation. Myles Kennedy takes over vocals in a masterful fashion proving successful at delivering the most intense vocals with amazing range while retaining the ability to effectively deliver whispering vocals in the few soft moments that there are. 		4.5
