ALTER BRIDGE – One Day Remains [20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition] (2024), MP3+FLAC
ALTER BRIDGE is celebrating the 20th anniversary of their gold-certified debut ”One Day Remains” with a deluxe edition. Originally released in 2004, the album includes fan favorites like “Metalingus,” “Open Your Eyes,” and “In Loving Memory.”
This expanded edition offers six bonus tracks, including rarity “Save Me,” and a five-song 2005 live set from Phase One Studios in Toronto, featuring never-before-released performances.
Florida four-piece Alter Bridge was formed in 2004 by members Mark Tremonti (guitar), Scott Phillips (drums) and Brian Marshall (bass) when their group Creed (known for such enduring hits as “Higher” and the multi-platinum “With Arms Wide Open”) was embarking on an extended hiatus. Alter Bridge completed its lineup with singer and guitarist Myles Kennedy (Slash) – then known for his work with the Mayfield Four – and signed to Wind-up Records.
Setting the tone for ”One Day Remains” is the metal-tinged opener “Find the Real,” a searing, high energy track that showcases Kennedy’s dynamic vocals. The album features one of Alter Bridge’s biggest hits, “Open Your Eyes,” which served as the band’s debut single. The anthemic track peaked at No.2 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart, while it was a Top 50 hit in Australia and Canada.
“Find the Real” also had significant success, landing in the Top 10 of Billboard’s Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and becoming the official theme to the 2005 WWE Royal Rumble.
Fan favorite “Metalingus,” meanwhile, was adopted by WWE Hall of Famer Adam “Edge” Copeland as his entrance theme and, today, remains the band’s highest-streaming song.
The four-piece also shows off a softer side through tracks “Broken Wings,” “Shed My Skin” and the deeply personal “In Loving Memory,” written by Tremonti as a tribute to his late mother.
