Tremonti, the band comprised of Mark Tremonti on vocals/guitars, Eric Friedman on guitars, and Garrett Whitlock on drums performed last weekend on Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium. Quality footage of the entire show can be watched in the video below.
Their newest album “A Dying Machine” is released on June 8 via Napalm Records. The disc was produced by Michael “Elvis” Baskette, who has helmed all previous Tremonti albums along with Alter Bridge‘s last four long-players.
From the militant drum assault of the album opener ‘Bringer Of War’ to the instrumental closer ‘Found’, ‘A Dying Machine’ is Tremonti‘s most-diverse musical offering to date. Songs like ‘From The Sky’, ‘Throw Them To The Lions’ and ‘A Lot Like Sin’ are signature Tremonti that fans have come to love from the trio. Tracks like “Trust”, “The First The Last” and “Desolation” take the listener to new places sonically, all backed by Tremonti‘s signature vocal style
“A Dying Machine” is the first concept album of Tremonti‘s career and the music is inspired by a story that came to Mark while on the last Alter Bridge tour. During that time, the epic title track “A Dying Machine” was born. The story, which is being turned into a full-length work of fiction authored by Mark Tremonti and John Shirley, takes place at the turn of the next century where humans and fabricated beings called “vessels” are trying to co-exist. Tremonti and Shirley are working on finishing the novel to release alongside the record.
