AHAVO RABO TACO SALAD appreciation thread
 

So, for those of you who got the mag or already listened to the clip posted on abb.net, what do you think of it?

Keep it all in one thread pls!

And just a friendly reminder from Steve:

Just heard the minor clip... Wow... Why doesn't he make ALL Alter Bridge songs like that? Then instead of saying "I sorta like AB but adore their singer" I could just say "I love Alter Bridge".

I mean, seriously, that is some wicked stuff right there. Why does he try to write ballads dangit? His passion--and talent--are clearly in the heavy stuff...

i have a feeling you'll be saying you love alter bridge when the next album drops uncertain..;)

I have the whole song already, and I have to say... Metallica should sit down a listen to this and learn how to play real Thrash Metal again! This song makes "Fight Song" seem like "Broken"! :D

And Mark is not the only one who impressed me on this track. Actually Myles impressed me more. I already knew Mark could play like this, but when I hear this track I really can see why Mark calls Myles: "The shredding king among the vocalist". Although I have a DVD bootleg from Astoria, London where Myles and Mark has a shred-battle. Mark kills Myles totally, of course, but Myles is actually reeeeaally good!

Flip is also amazing on this song! Really metalish! :D And Brian, man... Wow, HE'S FAST!!!

yeah man, that opening riff reminds me of older metallica all the way..i love it!!

Some parts of this song reminds me a lot of old Metallica! You can really tell what Mark listened to when he grew up! :D

Mark totally kicks ass on the song. Now those who used to badmouthing him about his playing skills will have to shut up.

Although I like melodic solos (like SHWM or Santana) better, it's so neat to see him letting lose. Flip is insane, Brian needs to show more of his playing on the next album and I gotta love Myles playing as well, I'd dig his part alone.

It's totally different from what I was expecting but it doesn't mean I'm disappointed. :) Rock on!!!

Where bouts on ABB.net do i find the clip ?

we have a post with it on the bb...it's in the main ab forum and it's a sticky.

ETA: and it's alterbridgeband.net not actually abb.net :D

I agree with Marcos post to 100%!! Brian does have to show more of his play, 'cause when he does it's frickin' awesome!

No, me neither! I really like it, but I really doubt it is future Alter Bridge album material. An instrumental song is always very different.

Yes i know.. I jus call it that for short.

yeah so do i, but last time i did that someone didn't get it..lol

Hahah, actually ABB is a very big company, and if you type in ABB.net in your bowser you'll connect to their website.

I certainly hope so. I had heard their next album will be heavier. I mean, they have the best singer since... umm... ever. Tremo is friggin amazing when he plays to his strengths, Flip is at least decent on the drums (he at least sets the stage well for Mark's awesome riffs), and while you can barely hear Brian, I am told he is pretty good.

So why don't they just let it loose? If they have another track like ILM on the next album, so help me I'll cry...

Anyway if someone has the full version could they PM me?

I really HOPE it is future Alter Bridge album quality...
