One Day Remains by Alter Bridge
One Day Remains is an album by Alter Bridge, released in 2004. 3 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 10 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Open Your Eyes”, on 6 lists with a best position of #16.
One Day Remains, Alter Bridge's debut album, came out on Wind-up on August 10, 2004, the sound of three Creed alumni, Mark Tremonti, Brian Marshall and Scott Phillips, starting over in Orlando with a new singer, Myles Kennedy. Tremonti wrote much of it the year before, and Ben Grosse produced, the only time the band has worked with someone other than Michael "Elvis" Baskette.
Kennedy is the game changer, a soaring, clean-toned tenor that lifts the heavy riffs instead of growling over them, and Tremonti's lead guitar gets room to shred. "Open Your Eyes" is the fist-pumping anthem, "Find The Real" digs in harder, and "Broken Wings" goes for the big, aching ballad. Reviews were mixed, but it went to No. 5 on the Billboard 200 and gold by November 2004, and it eventually sold 750,000 copies around the world.
