Mark Tremonti is a workaholic and what he produces is always first class. From early days in Creed to Alter<\/strong> Bridge<\/strong> as well as his solo albums, he has always been able to write hard rock of the highest calibre. And he\u2019s no slouch\u2026 from 2002 when the first Creed album was released he\u2019s been in the drivers seat on 3 more Creed albums, 3 solo albums (\u201cDust\u201d his latest was release in April this year) and 5 Alter<\/strong> Bridge<\/strong> albums.<\/p>\n

He sets the pace and direction on every release and I am a big fan of his. His guitar style takes the best from two worlds: hard rock and heavy metal and bring them together in little rock anthems. His signature sound and style is unique and the harder and heavier riffs go hand-in-hand with the finer more delicate and catchy melodic riffs, and he does it like no other guitarist.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Last Hero\u201d is once more the perfect combination of the two worlds, and the sound and songs do trace back to both his solo efforts as well as earlier Alter Bridge<\/strong> albums. Thirteen songs on offer this time, and there something for everyone once more\u2026<\/p>\n

Myles Kennedy sings as great as always, the rhythm section is tight and the production is very good. All-in-all you get a great injection of hard rock with a heavy edge. \u201cThe Last Hero\u201d is a mandatory purchase for fans of American hard rock\u2026<\/p>\n

Well done!<\/p>\n

Best moments: “The Writing On the Walls”, “Cradle to the Grave”, “You Will Be Remembered” and “Island of Fools”.<\/p>\n
