Starting October 29
Avenged Sevenfold will hit the road for a U.S. tour kicking off on October 29th in Los Angeles to promote their self-titled, self-produced album for Warner Bros. Records due out October 30th. Avenged Sevenfold marks the Huntington Beach, CA quintet's fourth album, which is the follow-up to 2006's City of Evil, which spawned three hit singles including the Modern Rock smash "Bat Country," which also earned them an MTV Video Music Award.
With Avenged Sevenfold, the band - frontman M. Shadows, guitarists Synyster Gates and Zacky Vengeance, bassist Johnny Christ, and drummer The Rev - let their eclectic musical influences come through. "All those months touring behind City of Evil, we were listening to everything from Toby Keith to T.I., finding inspiring elements from other genres to incorporate into our music," says Shadows. Despite the wide range of musical inspirations, there is no doubt that the album is trademark Avenged Sevenfold. The New York Times calls the album "...an all-out bid for modern-rock radio hegemony." The first single, "Critical Acclaim," is currently available for purchase on iTunes and other online retailers.
The band is known for dynamic live shows fueled by their innovative rock and rabid fan base. It's that electrifying spirit that has helped Avenged Sevenfold do what few bands before have accomplished - to become the only band to headline Warped Tour and Ozzfest, and be #1 on MTV's TRL at the same time. Come see for yourself!
