It has been a while:(

Re: Progress on the second album?
 

Yeah, kinda reminds me of that period after Weathered came out and we heard nothing...uh...never mind, don't even want to think about that notion.

Re: Progress on the second album?
 

ouch...don't remind us...might cause some people to go in to panic...they might be taking there sweet time (even though they should not take to long)

It was about a month ago on AB.net, Brian M. posted and said they're spending a little time with family before going back into the studio. I'm sure everything's cool.
Brian was spending most of his time fishing.

The new album wont be a total weathered situation again.
Maybe they'll do a small tour near the end of the year..
That would be ace..

Re: Progress on the second album?
 

it's taking so long because they're shopping a new label and finding a producer. if they don't get the deal they want from any label, they'll be getting their own together. that kind of shit takes time. they've said if it weren't for that situation, the album would be here sooner. look for it spring 2007, breathe, and relax a bit.

Re: Progress on the second album?
 

It's gonna be after spring 2007, more like Fall, if they are finding producers and doing the record themselves.

Update from Michael Tremonti...

What's up everyone.

It has been a month since my last update and I thought I would bring
everyone up to speed on what is happening with Alter Bridge. The band is
still writing although they are on a three week break right now to spend
some time with thier respective families. Mark was just up here in Chicago
last weekend to celebrate my brother Dan's son's first birthday. We all had
an awesome time.

Anyway, the break is a good thing because it is going to allow the business
side of things to catch up to the creative side. We are currently in final
discussions to pick a producer for the next cd. We are also in the final
stages of choosing a new label. We have the label stuation whittled down to
two choices although we have not ruled out going at it on our own either.
Please be patient with us on this because these are decisions that are going
to affect the band's career in the future and they are very important.

Creatively, things could not be going better. Alter Bridge is writing some
insane stuff and they will continue to write until recording starts.

As things stand now... the band will continue to write in September as,
hopefully, all the business stuff is worked out. We would like to start
pre-production on October 1st but, again, this is just a guess.

Either way.... prepare yourself. Alter Bridge is going to give you a CD that
is well worth the wait. Keep checking back and I'll let you fans in on the
scoop as it happens. You all will be the first to know of any new info. Feel
free to ask any questions below and I'll do my best to answer them when time
permits.

In the meanwhile, enjoy the pics that I am posting on a daily basis and keep
spreading the word of Alter Bridge. Remember, right now, it is just Alter
Bridge and you. Keep the faith.

Re: Progress on the second album?
 

Nice! Can't wait for the new CD. Even if it takes til the end of 2007 to come out, it's still worth the wait.

Re: Progress on the second album?
 

^ yup...it does worth it....and i am not worried....... not at alll......cause ONE DAY REMAINS still works the same magic 4 me it did the first time...... still rocks like nothing else

Re: Progress on the second album?
 

Or the guys could produce the album themselves, I don't think that would be none to bad of an idea.
