Dang, that's one I forgot about. Haven't listened to them since the early 70s. Only thing I remember is that each of their songs was unique, and they were damned fine musicians.

New Alter Bridge just came out this week, "The Last Hero".
This one is taking a long time to grow on me -- I'm not sure it's going to. "Fortress" absolutely ruined me for this band. I don't know how, or if, they can top that album. It's like they couldn't decide if they wanted to make Fortress again, or One Day Remains again, because it's a not-so-well-done mishmash of those two styles. Lots of guitar work on here reminds me of Creed's "Weathered" album, which is not a bad problem to have, as I love that record despite the negativity associated with it due to its singles being overplayed... and Scott Stapp.
When I get a new album, I tend to listen to it as background music while doing other stuff -- mostly internet surfing. It's in this manner that outstanding passages in the music present themselves to me. It's how things really catch me ear and make me pay attention. Very few times has that happened with "TLH" so far. I'm hoping a few days as my gym music will help out.
