The band’s seventh full-length album is set for release this October. Kennedy and Tremonti – plus bass guitar player Brian Marshall and drummer Scott Phillips – have teamed back up for a new Alter Bridge album called Pawns & Kings. The band’s seventh album, Pawns & Kings was helmed by longtime collaborator/producer Michael “Elvis” Baskette, and is set for an October 14 release via Napalm Records.
The animated music video for the LP’s second single “Silver Tongue” can be seen below and its heavy! The clip, which was created and directed by Ollie Jones of Better Feeling Films (Myles Kennedy, PRODIGY, PSYCHEDELIC PORN CRUMPETS), follows victims who fall prey someone beautiful but turns demonic under a dark spell of a painting that pulls them into an alternate universe and traps them inside forcing them to fight for survival. My personal interpretation of the song is that its a euphemism for the mysterious power of attractive people who are evil on the inside and how you can fall victim to external beauty and to never judge a book by its cover. Watch the video and decide for yourself.
ALTER BRIDGE will be touring in support of “Pawns & Kings”. The band has announced a tour of Europe for November and December that will make 25 stops. The tour starts November 1 in Germany and will go to Denmark, Sweden, Spain and more before it ends December 12 at O2 Arena in the United Kingdom. HALESTORM and MAMMOTH WVH will be part of the tour.
