One Day Remains is the debut studio album by American rock band Alter Bridge, released on August 10, 2004, on Wind-up Records. The album was produced by Ben Grosse,[1] making it the band's only album to not be produced by Michael "Elvis" Baskette as of 2020; additionally, it is the only release by the band on which lead singer Myles Kennedy does not play guitar. It has been certified Gold in the United States as of November 2004, with worldwide sales reaching 750,000.[2][3] It is said the album received its name from the band members' attitudes that life should be lived as if only one day remains. Guitarist Mark Tremonti also said in an interview that the title is a reference to the title cards that appeared in the 2001 movie Donnie Darko, and it is one of the names the band considered using before settling with Alter Bridge.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

Track information
"Metalingus"
Although never released as a single, "Metalingus" is one of Alter Bridge's most popular songs and is a live staple. The song has been used by professional wrestler and WWE Hall of Famer Adam "Edge" Copeland as his entrance theme in WWE from 2004 onward. From March to June 2022, he changed his entrance theme to another Alter Bridge song, "The Other Side", which would later be the entrance music for The Judgment Day stable after Edge got disbanded from the group. He continued to use "Metalingus" once more after returning at SummerSlam 2022 and after joining All Elite Wrestling (AEW) in October 2023.[4]
"In Loving Memory"
Like "Metalingus", "In Loving Memory" was never released as a single, though it is one of the band's most popular songs among fans. On November 5, 2008 in Glasgow, an electric version of the song was performed for the first time, and has since become a regular feature in their live shows.
Mark Tremonti wrote the song about the death of his mother, Mary Elizabeth Tremonti, who died in 2002. In an interview he said: "There are a lot of themes on this record that are very personal, for example 'In Loving Memory' is about my mother who recently passed away. In terms of purely personal significance, you cannot get any deeper than that. It is definitely a sad song."[5]
B-sides
- "Save Me", featured on the soundtrack to the 2005 film Elektra.
- "Solace" has been recorded during the ODR sessions, but it didn't make the record. The song "Solace" was a possible band name they were seriously considering before deciding on Alter Bridge. The lead guitarist Mark Tremonti said that in the Guitar One interview from the October 2004 issue, Kennedy was singing a line from it. The intro can be heard played by Tremonti on the DVD The Sound and the Story. Template:Citation needed span The whole song was included as "rarity" on Live at the O2 Arena + Rarities in 2017.
- "Breathe" is another song written and has been recorded during the ODR sessions. It was released on the Best Buy exclusive version of The Last Hero in 2016 as well as on the rarities disc of Live at the O2 Arena + Rarities in 2017.
- "Cruel Sun" is another song written and has been recorded during the ODR sessions, but it had yet to be heard until being included as "rarity" on Live at the O2 Arena + Rarities in 2017.
Appearances
- An edited version of the song "Open Your Eyes" was featured in the video game Madden NFL 2005 in 2004.
- The song "Shed My Skin" was featured on the soundtrack to the 2005 film Fantastic Four.
- The song "Metalingus" was featured in the video game WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011 in 2010, and every WWE video game featuring Edge since. A remixed and edited version titled You Think You Know Me (Metalingus) was also WWE wrestler Edge's entrance theme song from November 2004 to the present day.
