The song follows “Silent Divide” as the second track issued ahead of the band’s eighth studio set, which will be released January 9, 2026 via Napalm Records.
Like the Florida rockers 2022 album, “Pawns & Kings”, “Alter Bridge” was produced by longtime associate Michael Baskette and recorded at Studio Barbarosa in Gotha, FL.
Songs like "Rue The Day," "Disregarded," and "Scales Are Falling" will fit alongside any of the classic songs from Alter Bridge's catalog. "Trust In Me" shows Myles and Mark sharing vocal duties as Myles handles the verse duties while Mark takes the chorus. That strategy is flipped on "Tested And Able" as Mark handles the verses and Myles takes on the choruses behind one of the band's heaviest intros to date, giving way to an unforgettable melody.
The album closer "Slave To Master" is an epic track that Alter Bridge has come to be known for and is the longest song the quartet has recorded to date.
Alter Bridge will launch the album on a European tour, which will open in Hamburg, Germany on January 15.
