@@AlexHefner they have a laundry list of great songs you need to check out! Tremonti is a badass guitarist and song writer, and Myles is no slouch on guitar either. He plays with Slash as well, and Tremonti and Slash both say he is the best guitarist in both of their bands. Some great songs to checkout even if not reacting to them: Slip to the Void, Cry of Achilles, Open Your Eyes, Ties that Bind, Isolation, Addicted to Pain, In Loving Memory, Watch Over You, Metalingus, Show Me a Leader, Father than the Sun....I could go on and on! Lol. Fun fact...these guys used to be Creed. When that band imploded thanks to the singer, the band members enlisted Myles on vocals and as an additional guitarist and became Alter Bridge.
@@AlexHefner just do it dude, please, you will not regret it...Open Your Eyes, Broken Winks, Shed My Skin, In Loving Memory, Watch Over You...react do everything pls
@@AlexHefner I'll make this guarantee now. If my notification shows you reacting to AB I'll be there. Even if my house is on fire, the fire will just have to wait!
Reason why he never played it live before because there is the high note that he was afraid he wouldn’t hit live. So that why it was a big deal. And he hit it like a champ 🖤
@@jimdemassi8788 the first I saw this live video, I've seen the same. Mark proud face is awesome to see, like he was thinking "I said you could reach it, Myles, I said it!"
Yes Alex, you do need to be slapped. It's been almost 3 years since Blackbird and I've been screaming for you to react to more so, it's about damn time! Keep them coming lol.
I was a little confused on this post because it says almost 3 years, then I realized it’s probably just a typo. Blackbird came out in 2007 making it 14 years
Yep, that's why he talks about "manning up" in the intro there and why they don't play it live. He absolutely crushes that note here (love how Alex's pullstring on his hoodie flops out of his mouth during that part 😂😂😂)!!! This is one of the best performances of AB I've ever seen, but these guys seriously rock live.
I love AB but he doesn’t hit this note every night. This is one of a handful of times they’ve ever played it live. He’s an incredible singer but not even he could do it every night.
I’m going to see them for the first time in Boston on Feb. 8. My first concert and it’s my favourite band lol. I am beyond excited!! Mark Tremonti is the reason I picked up a guitar for the time 20 years ago.
The look on your face when Miles hits that note is the same that every single person has. It's insane. Once you learn the back story of the lyric it also gives a whole new meaning to it too. 100% goose bumps every single time!
I would add I was there the first night with my son in one of the boxes. After they performed "Words..." we divulged to each other later that we both were so overwhelmed by the song and the swell of the crowd reaction, that we were moved to tears. The best concert of my life, and I've been to hundreds.
SHUT UP!!! REALLY? Tell me everything. How did Myles smell? Like a Greek god in a rainforest feeding cotton candy to a Unicorn?? I thought so! I knew it! I JUST KNEW IT! How did Mark smell? Like rich Mahogany and new leather on a Pegasus? I KNEW YOU'D SAY THAT! You make me feel like I was there! Seriously, that is awesome. Of all the shows, that was the one to be at, wasn't it? I'm so happy for you ( a lot jealous), but really happy for you. Love from Texas, ❤🤍💙
I think it’s the orchestra and how the vocals are in this song. It has to take a lot out of Myles to sing this song. Especially when he get towards the end and has that 80’s rock and metal style of vocals going on. I always thought he would have done very well in that era in a band.
Alex if you want to hear something epic from the Royal Albert Hall please listen to Beth Hart Caught Out In The Rain this woman will blow your freakin socks off. She is a 3 time Grammy winner for Best Female Blues artist 3 years in a row. She also does a concert with Slash on guitar singing Led Zep's song Whole Lotta Love, unreal version of that song. Or if you really want your mind blown Beth sings a song live in Amsterdam it's Am I the One live at Parasido please check this woman out she is unbelievable PLEASE
Alter Bridge is absolutely 1 of the best things to happen to music. Every single member is unbelievably talented and their catalog has everything you could want. Please go see a live show.
My favourite Alter Bridge song every time I hear this song it gives me goosebumps. Love the high note Myles does...❤️🤘🏻 Words darker then there wings is the last song on their AB lll album. Another awesome song by them is The End Is Here! 🤘🏻
AB is also really cool about this stuff, they re-post on their page often when people do reactions. In fact, they posted this one on their Facebook page! Lol
@@AlexHefner react to beneath the sky 7861 no other youtuber has reacted to them there really heavy he has the voice of the devil pls react to beneath the sky 7861
7:53 Most people cant handle hearing that. ie, Anyone who knows anything about vocalists and range. Your response is wonderfully pure. JAW DROPPING. The album version is great too
I’m late to commenting on this video but it’s my most favorite AB song ever and I’m man enough to admit I bawled when I heard it live with the strings. Absolutely incredible!
My go to song when I am feeling depressed. “ Go never to ask why or to fear again. Go find your peace tonight. Go set out towards the sun, let the new begin. Go, soon your day will come “. Always gives me hope. Great reaction!❤️
@@bryanlenihan5012 What the fuck! I think there are only 2 or 3 videos from this concert on the RUclips. I wish I could watch the full concert. Addicted to pain is also fucking amazing on this concert! But unfortunately I don't think I can watch the full concert without buying the dvd someday.
Alter Bridge is just on a whole other wave length. Myles Kennedy is one of the best rock vocalist out there right now imo. He's consistent with his singing, humble and seems to be ,overall, an amazing human being. Along with Mark Tremonti, who, also, in my opinion, is so underrated and a absolute guitar beast and legend. Thank you for this brother and shedding some light on such a great band and for those who have never heard of them. (Also for those that don't know Mark Tremonti was the ex. guitarist for Creed) Stay safe everyone and keep on rocking! 🤘💯🙏
@@offroadskater No shit, just pointing out facts people may not know. I'm sure a lot of the people here didn't know Mark Tremonti was the ex guitarist for Creed. Also, not trying to sound rude, sorry it it came out that way. 🤷♂️
Fuck, about time. I hope more Alter Bridge reactions are to come. I suggest Ties that Bind or Metalingus. I also suggest you ract to the lead guitarist solo band Tremonti. Maybe the song Cauterize.
Alter Bridge, my favourite band. Myles Kennedy, one of the best voices in the world; Mark Tremonti, the guitarrist of the decade... They are just wonderful, they are a gift to the world, their songs are a healer. Make yourself a favor and hear everything that they have recorded (specially, their album Blackbird) because it's so worth it man. Nice video, i enjoyed it so much. ♥️
Finally!!!!!!!!! I've been asking for sooooo long!!!!! That high note at the end is why they don't play it live because Myles is afraid of straining his voice! Check out Addicted to pain live at the Royal Albert hall. The orchestra really shines in that one.
I don't have their lyrics tattooed on me for nothing. I've seen them live a couple times and they are amazing. Definitely keep checking them out, anything live is well worth checking out. This is easily my favourite live performance of theirs. That note miles hits is absolute insanity and that little approving smirk on Mark's face right afterwards is great.
There are so many good songs by Alter Bridge that you should react to. And yes, 8:55 this is the last song in my favorite album by them, AB III without including the bonus tracks that come after it. The studio is incredible too but you're right, they sound incredible live too!
Their guitarist Mark also has an incredible singing voice, part of their secret formula. He has a solo group called Tremonti that are more than worth a listen! As for Alter Bridge, you're only gonna cheat yourself by not checking out more! 😤😁
Saw Tremonti live couple years ago and got to doo a meet and greet, jus ttold him straight up "You're still a bad ass" which he just smiled and laughed abit haha. cool guy
I think that having Myles and Mark is what makes Alter Bridge so special. They're both crazy good guitar players, I mean they're guitar Gods, AND they're both amazing singers, with very distinct range and style of singing. It's like the perfect combination. Plus they're awesome songwriters. And yes, this was the first time Mark sang in a song together with Myles and fans loved it so much that he sang two songs in following albums, Waters Rising (off of Fortress) and Forever Falling (off of Walk The Sky) Plus, this is a song where the two of them talk with each other about their religious beliefs (Myles being pretty much atheist and Mark being more religious) and I think it is one of their most powerful songs ever! Alex, love your channel and reactions!
Myles has always been scared about that high note at the end, that's the big deal with this song, but he got up there like a champion and you can see how proud Mark (Tremonti) was right after. These guys are so talented and nice it hurts. Love love love them! 🖤 "Words Darker Than Their Wings" it's actually the last song of their third album "AB III" and yes, the live is better then the recorded version in my truly humble opinion.
You know what I love even more than the way Mark smiles with pride when he hits it? The way Myles' hand shakes at the end. It's a big fucking deal and means so much you can see him physically shaking. Incredibly human. Incredible band. Yes, I might be stoned but it doesn't stop it being true.
To answer your question Alex, yes this is the last song on their record “AB III”. If you thought blackbird was A deep song, you should look up the meaning behind this one, hits you in the feels.
I had the same reaction you had at that highnote when I first saw it lol. I totally can relate to that. Myles Kennedy grew up in Spokane WA (where I am from) so it is so awesome to see him on your channel. So awesome
Okay if you're doing live performance reactions I highly recommend Myles Kennedy joining Disturbed to do "Sound of Silence" live in Houston! You won't regret it!!!
This is so sick... I'd take the duet over the studio version every day of the week... There are a few parts in there that are completely nuts when you listen to myles... Like "to the neon gods they made"...
I’ve been telling your for months to listen to this recording. I’m glad you enjoyed it. If you listen in the intro, Myles says that they don’t play it live and joke about him trying to hit that high note...but he’s manning up. This song also really showcases how well Myles and Mark harmonize together and that note at the end is a note that only Myles can hit. You can even watch Mark look at him and give a little smile and nod after that note. Also, this song is a back and forth dialogue between Myles and Mark, about mark trying to convince Myles about his Christian faith.
Please react to Thousand Foot Krutch Here some awesome songs by them: - Rawkfist - Down - Fly on the wall - Learn to breathe - Born this way - Absolute - Adrenaline - Running with Giants - Give up the ghost - Let the sparks fly - The part that hurts the most (Is me) - Untraveled road - War of change - Courtesy Call - Off the rails - Be somebody - Phenomenon - Move - Welcome to the masquerade - Bring me to life - Fire it up - Falls apart
for abcs of metal,you should do: m: metallica - to live is to die metallica - dyers eve or metallica - ride the lighting and d: death - the philosopher
Alex, as a fellow Texan you should try Upon A Burning Body, they are a band from Texas. They have a song called Texas Bloody Money. It's metal about Texas pride.
Alter bridge is one of my all time favorite bands...every one of their songs are incredible. So glad you finally did a reaction to this song...that high note is insane. Definitely gotta check out more of their stuff
MAN I LOVE THIS SONG (and all of those songs too) and congrats for the evolution in the guitar and take care of your picks Alex they sing Waters Is Rising together too and the principal voice is from Mark Tremonti
I was at the Indianapolis show in February and have that version of Blackbird on my channel ;) I was very surprised they still took the time to play it with a new record to promote and so much other catalog choices.
bro this video dropped and I nearly screamed. this is literally the best live performance of any song out there. Alter Bridge is no doubt one of the best bands to walk this planet.
Seen Alter Bridge twice in London and they are awesome live. Mark Tremonti after one song gave away his guitar to one of the fans in the front row at the 02 Arena in London 2019. Mark Tremonti has his own band called Tremonti and he plays the guitar and sings.
I've never heard of this band and WOW, that was a stunning song and performance. The Royal Albert Hall is an amazing venue so when you plan a trip to London definitely see a concert there.
Slap you we need to. This band absolutely takes it to the upper limits musically.. Not only is it such a joy to hear Mark also sing with Myles that note at the end by Myles is what really makes this performance MAJESTIC!!!
I've seen Alter Bridge in concert a few times and they kill it when they're on stage. Myles's vocal range is amazing. You should definitely react to more of their songs!!!
7:55 basically my first ever reaction to this. As an AB fan, this is arguably their best performance on any of their songs. Miles can be a bit all over the place with his voice at times, but Christ he nailed this performance.
It’s actually criminal you haven’t reacted to more Alter Bridge
Yes it is AB is my fav band
I know. I’m sorry. It’ll happen more

@@dehagursel A7X, Slipknot, System of a down, FFDP, Lamb of God they all are popular. But why AB is not popular like them? Really can't understand

That high note, Alex. It's all about that high note. Imagine having to hit that note night after night. Only Myles.

Id pass out attempting
It once lol

What is the back story?
You should react to their song "Metalingus".
Man that whole song, especially the intro, is a bitch on the fingers to play on the guitar. 😂
when that the come we will see clearly
Miles Kennedys' voice range is amazing in this song!
Yes, 100% needs to happen
I was totally going to say this. Best song of theirs, in my opinion.
After Myles hits that high note at the end, Tremonti looks over with a smile like "I've got the best singer in the world."
Exactly
He looked like a proud father. lol.
I would add I was there the first night with my son in one of the boxes. After they performed "Words..." we divulged to each other later that we both were so overwhelmed by the song and the swell of the crowd reaction, that we were moved to tears.

"Slip to the void" is a highly underrated song by Alter Bridge
Quite honestly if not my favorite song from the album then definitely top 2 or 3. I love it so much.
Whoever underrates AB3 shouldn't be trusted to rate anything. Ever.

Saw Tremonti live couple years ago and got to doo a meet and greet, jus ttold him straight up "You're still a bad ass" which he just smiled and laughed abit haha. cool guy
Its shocking how good Mark is, and he is only the second best singer in Alter Bridge.

These guys are so talented and nice it hurts. Love love love them! 🖤 "Words Darker Than Their Wings" it's actually the last song of their third album "AB III" and yes, the live is better then the recorded version in my truly humble opinion.
You know what I love even more than the way Mark smiles with pride when he hits it? The way Myles' hand shakes at the end. It's a big fucking deal and means so much you can see him physically shaking. Incredibly human. Incredible band.
Yes, I might be stoned but it doesn't stop it being true.
Addicted to Pain 🗣️🎙️🔥💯
That moment when Myles goes high pitch with his voice gives me chills!
This band gives me chills...ask me to pick a favourite ??? It's impossible, but this version of this song makes my heart pound out of my chest. X
Yes, this song closed ABIII, bonus tracks not included.
So glad you found this Alex, Alter Bridge are an awesome band! Take care my friend x
To answer your question Alex, yes this is the last song on their record “AB III”. If you thought blackbird was A deep song, you should look up the meaning behind this one, hits you in the feels.

You can even watch Mark look at him and give a little smile and nod after that note. Also, this song is a back and forth dialogue between Myles and Mark, about mark trying to convince Myles about his Christian faith.
React to Alter Bridge - ,,Metalingus". Dope song and undertaker.
Edge?
I have seen them once live, because they are my favorite band, but YES they are ALWAYS better live than recorded!

I’ve been trying forever to get a response.
I have requested this so many times so I’m so happy you finally reacted to it 😩😩
for abcs of metal,you should do:
m: metallica - to live is to die
metallica - dyers eve
or
metallica - ride the lighting
and d: death - the philosopher
Yess!!!!! Thank you soo much! I hope it doesn't get taken down, but its worth it!
Alex, as a fellow Texan you should try Upon A Burning Body, they are a band from Texas. They have a song called Texas Bloody Money. It's metal about Texas pride.
Alter bridge is one of my all time favorite bands...every one of their songs are incredible. So glad you finally did a reaction to this song...that high note is insane. Definitely gotta check out more of their stuff
Tbh I do prefer the studio recording because of the bend up to the high note, that said this performance was incredible
This whole concert is amazing even tho my fav AB concert is Amsterdam from 08
MAN I LOVE THIS SONG (and all of those songs too) and congrats for the evolution in the guitar and take care of your picks
Alex they sing Waters Is Rising together too and the principal voice is from Mark Tremonti
Just do the whole album “live at the royal albert hall”
07:55 is the reason they don't always play it live. That's a very difficult note to reach. But he did it magnificently!!!! ♥
Check out Blackbird live. I saw them in February before the shit the fan. Normally just Miles Kennedy singing.
I was at the Indianapolis show in February and have that version of Blackbird on my channel ;) I was very surprised they still took the time to play it with a new record to promote and so much other catalog choices.
Alex's face when Myles hits THAT note 😲
When you get back to ABCs of metal, for L you should react to Lamb of God - Resurrection Man!!
10 year aniversery of the album Resolution being released too.
I believe I've watched this like 20 times now lol this is one of my favorite bands ever and I love seeing peoples reactions to them
Please react to Monuments you wont regret it 😁😁
Monuments are so good. John Browne is easily one of the best modern metal guitarists today
I think he will really dig the grooves on something like leviathan or atlas 😁 as for browne he is a pioneer of modern metal imo 😉
@@deanbarry4797 of all languages you chose to speak facts😳
bro this video dropped and I nearly screamed. this is literally the best live performance of any song out there. Alter Bridge is no doubt one of the best bands to walk this planet.
Oh my god it’s a great song!
React to Pardon Me by Incubus.
Aslo do more Muse and Twenty One Pilots!
The whole concert is a masterpiece. They are such an underrated band!
Hey, if you're gonna do live videos, check out gojira- the gift of guilt live at Brixton academy please!!
Seen Alter Bridge twice in London and they are awesome live.
Mark Tremonti after one song gave away his guitar to one of the fans in the front row at the 02 Arena in London 2019.
Mark Tremonti has his own band called Tremonti and he plays the guitar and sings.
0:40 it's a nice beginning even with the guitar out of tune on the A string xD, but keep going bro you're on a good path
I've never heard of this band and WOW, that was a stunning song and performance. The Royal Albert Hall is an amazing venue so when you plan a trip to London definitely see a concert there.
Slap you we need to. This band absolutely takes it to the upper limits musically.. Not only is it such a joy to hear Mark also sing with Myles that note at the end by Myles is what really makes this performance MAJESTIC!!!
04:22 superb realisation lol.. great reaction video brother. now get listening to MORE of this guys
I've seen Alter Bridge in concert a few times and they kill it when they're on stage. Myles's vocal range is amazing. You should definitely react to more of their songs!!!
7:55 basically my first ever reaction to this. As an AB fan, this is arguably their best performance on any of their songs. Miles can be a bit all over the place with his voice at times, but Christ he nailed this performance.
I’ve never really heard his voice all over the place. Usually better live than in studio.
alter bridge - metalingus, ties that bind, watch your words and one day remains
Love the guitar updates man keep it going❤️ don’t quit!!!
This made me cry... I love them... and I miss live music so much!!
