| AB is back with their sophmore effort and what an effort it is. Most bands either hit or miss with the second cd and AB hit a homerun 560 ft here.
This album starts off with 2 killer metal songs Ties that Bind and Come to Life and just never lets up. There are no filler material here either just plain brilliance just listen to the title track blackbird and tell me that isnt one of the best sculptured songs ever |

| | It's funny with this band 'cause i just read an interview with the guitarist Mark and he's denying his past "Christian" label. He sure didn't mind the label when he was in Creed making a fortune. He just said it was all the singer's thing but if he didn't like the lyrics or whatever he could have spoke up back then. What these people do to gain "credibility" in the rock/metal world is a joke. |

| u need to understand there label forced them to be more of a scott stapp solo cd, and being on a label u have a contract to fulfill or there is goin to be lots of legal issues if not.
Mark did the right this of disbanding from Scott and doin wjat he does best and thats writing some of the best tunes to date..
AB will always be "the band formerly known as Creed" but that doesnt mean the music has to be. |

| AlterBridge rule!, like them better than Creed. Blackbird is a worthy followup to their first. |
