Alter Bridge Premiere New Single "Scales Are Falling"

Alter Bridge have dropped one final advance single ahead of the release of their self-titled eighth studio album. The track, “Scales Are Falling,” is now available alongside an official visualizer created by Marcin Pospiech (Nine Inch Nails, Tool). "Alter Bridge" is due out this Friday, January 9.

Vocalist/guitarist Myles Kennedy shared of the song:

“It’s when you realize the reality of a situation where you’ve been deceived. You see the truth and how harsh it is.”

Guitarist Mark Tremonti added:

“I was excited for this one. It has an atmospheric vibe with a lot of peaks, valleys, and moods. I solo over the bridge, and Myles plays the outro.”
