ALTER BRIDGE: New Song – Last Rites

Alter Bridge have released a lyric video for their original, new song “Last Rites” from the upcoming EP Walk The Sky 2.0. The video has a dark and mystical aesthetic utilising a fortune teller making a prediction based on the song’s lyrics. The song was born from an idea that band members Myles Kennedy, Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall, and Scott Phillips began sharing after the cancellation of their entire 2020 touring schedule and was written, recorded, and completed entirely during the Covid-19 lockdown. “Last Rites” is available on all streaming partners and the lyric video can be seen above.

The new Walk The Sky 2.0 EP – available November 6th via Napalm Records – is comprised of “Last Rites”, along with live versions of “Wouldn’t You Rather,” “Pay No Mind,” “Native Son,” “Godspeed,” “In The Deep”, and “Dying Light” all recorded during the band’s US tour at the beginning of the year. The EP is available for pre-order in various configurations including a Jewelcase CD (available worldwide), Jewelcase CD + t-shirt (Napalm Records exclusive worldwide except North America), and cream-coloured Vinyl Gatefold LP (available worldwide). The album will also be available in a digital bundle with the original Walk The Sky album and Walk The Sky 2.0 EP together as well as a limited edition 2-CD Earbook with both versions included (Napalm Records mailorder only). All versions of Walk The Sky 2.0 can be ordered here: https://smarturl.it/WalkTheSky2.0.
