Alter Bridge have unleashed the final single from their new album

Alter Bridge have just shared the final single from their upcoming self-titled album.

Ahead of the release of the full record this Friday (January 9) via Napalm, the quartet have unleashed the absolutely excellent Scales Are Falling.

“I was excited for this one,” teases guitarist Mark Tremonti. “It has an atmospheric vibe with a lot of peaks, valleys and moods. I solo over the bridge, and Myles plays the outro.”

Myles Kennedy adds that Scales Are Falling is about that moment when “you realise the reality of a situation where you’ve been deceived. You see the truth and how harsh it is.”
