ALTER BRIDGE HAD only just started touring their sixth studio album, late 2019’s Walk the Sky, when — much like everyone else — their plans were grounded to a halt. Instead of quietly biding their time, however, the hard rock quartet decided to give fans around the world a taste of “what could have been” in the form of Walk the Sky 2.0, an EP of energetic live offerings from their early 2020 U.S. tour, plus “Last Rites,” a brand-new studio track.
