Cauterize is the second album by Creed/Alterbridge guitarist Mark Tremonti, and is just a powerful and melodic as he debut 'All I was' which was released back in 2012, this album brings back Eric Friedman on Rythem guitar duties and Garret Whitlock on drums...but with a new addition in the form of Bass player Wolfgang Van Halen after he replaced Brian Marshall after the release of Tremonti's debut album.

The music itself is just as what you'd expect from Mark Tremonti just as he displayed on his first album, with the first track 'Radical Change' bringing in the fast paced pulse pounding riffs that is also brought on in other tracks such as 'Another Heart' 'Arm Yourself' and the albums title track 'Cauterize' not only does Mark bring the fast paced riffs like on 'All I Was' but he also displays his soft melodic style that all Creed/Alterbridge fans know him for only bringing a more errie feel to it like on the song 'Dark Trip' and with the albums closing song 'Providence'

The album itself is amazing and worth a listen for any Creed/Alterbridge/Tremonti fan out there, I enjoyed it just as much as I did the first and I hope Mark continues to deliver just as he always does.

Great first review, I've never heard Tremonti's solo stuff. Maybe I should give it a listen, since I do really like Creed.
