10 Most Criminally Underrated Alter Bridge Songs You Must Hear
8. We Don't Care At All
A bonus track for the US, later added to pressings over here in the UK, We Don't Care At All is a brilliantly fun and bouncy track that just screams 'set opener'. Or it will, if Alter Bridge ever let the fans pick their setlists!
A crunchy guitar rhythm trades airtime with Myles' vocals, tag-teaming an intro that's just pure, kinetic energy. The chorus doesn't let up either, and by the time the solo comes in you're more than ready for it - a brilliant cherry-topper to a composition that's as long-lastingly infectious as it is immediately listenable.
There's a certain style to Mark's playing here that I personally adore (and had the pleasure of asking him about). It's just the right mix of old school rock n' roll, what with the stretching bends and scales he's using, blended with his academic approach to the instrument, resulting in liquid-smooth transitions between passages and an impressive legato run tying it all together.
