We've had our fair share of close Rocktagon battles, but none like the fight Asking Alexandria and Alter Bridge had. In the end, Alter Bridge came out on top and now face Pepper in a brand new showdown.

Ending Asking Alexandria's 17-night winning streak was not an easy task, but Alter Bridge hung on by the skin of their teeth with 50.06% of the votes. Their single "Addicted to Pain" is from the band's forthcoming album Fortress, due out October 8.

Hawaii jammers Pepper plan to release their self-titled album next Tuesday (September 3). The disc contains the catchy and sexy hit single "FKARND (All Night)." Pepper will launch a North American tour August 31 in Long Beach, Calif. The closet city to Grand Rapids the band will be at is the House of Blues in Chicago on October 4. Watch "FKARND (All Night)" below and vote for who you want to win.
