DVD Reviews of Alter Bridge Live From Amsterdam

DVD Review: The Reese's Peanut Butter Cup of Rock-and-Roll
Summary: 5 Stars

While the majority of "modern rock radio" keeps on churning out hot dogs and Spam, Alter Bridge has treated us to Filet Mignon with all the trimmings. No truer is this statement than in the recent release of Alter Bridge's first (of hopefully many!) DVD, "Live in Amsterdam." From the crooning, sultry, raucous, and everywhere-in-between modern day legend Myles Kennedy, to the Rock-and-Roll Energizer Bunny Mark Tremonti, to the heart-thumping bass grooves of Brian Marshall, to the intense clarity of Scott "Flip" Philips' drums, this band is tighter than Scott Stapp's leather pants.

There are so many cliches that float around band reviews, but Alter Bridge, as the song says, makes them Come To Life. From beginning to end, the boys don't miss a beat and the air in Amsterdam's Heineken Music Hall is full of electric dynamite. The band brings their hot-and-heavy thunder on songs like White Knuckles and Metalingus, and slow it down for some emotional highs with songs like Brand New Start and Broken Wings. Myles goes solo on an absolutely jaw-dropping rendition of radio hit Watch Over You, and shows off his bluesy chops with a cover of Robert Johnson's Traveling Riverside Blues. The Beatles-inspired title track to their second album, Blackbird, opens with a nod to the Fab Four's song of the same name before ripping into your soul with their own grandiose anthem for those we have lost too soon ("Let the wind carry you home / Blackbird, fly away / May you never be broken again"). Also sure to jerk a tear or two from your eyes is guitarist Mark Tremonti's ode to his mom who passed away several years ago, In Loving Memory. In a special treat for the hardcore fans, the band pulls out a Best-Buy Exclusive bonus track from the Blackbird album, fan-favorite New Way To Live. And of course, the crowd-pumping commercial radio singles Open Your Eyes and Rise Today leave not a voice in the room unheard. All this, and 7 more sensational Alter Bridge hits, can be yours today for the low low price of $20.49!

If you have not yet treated yourself to the music of Alter Bridge, or have heard the radio singles and just aren't sure, this DVD WILL (I guaran-damn-tee) push you over the edge. This band bridges the gap between rock radio sludge and the mostly unknown but virtuoso-ic technical juggernauts like Dream Theater and Porcupine Tree, toeing the line between commercial rock and progressive metal without alienating fans of either genre (or anything in between). While Mark, Brian, and Scott have achieved more commercial fame and status with Creed, singer/guitarist Myles Kennedy is an absolute hero for our generation of musicians, all while remaining as humble as the kid-off-the-street he was in Spokane 15 years ago.

So why did I call this the "Reese's Peanut Butter Cup of Rock-and-Roll?" Myles said it himself. He and Mark flow together as singers, guitarists, and songwriters seamlessly, not with the exact same style, but with complimentary flourishes, melding together to create one tasty treat with two distinct flavors. (Though lest we forget Brian and Flip, the... wrapper and the cardboard piece holding it all together? Sure, let's go with that. :) )

Treat yourself to an eargasm and get this DVD -- not next week, not next month, but Before Tomorrow Comes. You will NOT be disappointed!
