New Album ‘Life Is But A Dream’ Announced After Single Is Dropped
To be dropped on June 2nd the bands’ latest album has been the rumoured talk of the town since September 2018 when Synyster Gates first gave us inklings of new material in the works. New single ‘Nobody’ embodies the Avenged Sevenfold mantra to the fullest. Roaring vocals from M. Shadows are as present as ever as those tones of omnipresent musicianship never cease to fold within the crevices of Sevenfold class. A deepening wave of glorified fist to heart monumenting crass fills the soul before Synyster Gate’s guitar lead bring us back into the game. A stunning feel for what is to come with the album. Known for their multi-level, influential takes on musical composures the band have stated the French philosopher Albert Camus as the core inspirer to their latest endeavour.
Formed in 1999 the American heavy metal band first drafted onto the scene as a metal core group before gradually developing their own brand of conceptual metal noir. With seven studio albums under their belt they’ve sold over 8 million records worldwide and continue to have themselves as a name on the scene that refuses to budge.
The music video for ‘Nobody’ was released with the single. Directed by award winning director Chris Hopwell the six minute video features gorgeously haunting stop-motion.
