Avenged Sevenfold

Avenged Sevenfold (comprising M. Shadows, Synyster Gates, Zacky Vengeance, Johnny Christ and Brooks Wackerman) have just released the new single "Nobody," their first new single since 2016. The track and its accompanying stop-motion video offer the first taste of the Huntington Beach, CA band's forthcoming eighth album, "Life Is But a Dream", coming on June 2nd.

Avenged Sevenfold will support the release with two massive live shows this summer, at Kia Forum on June 9th and Madison Square Garden on June 23rd. The newly announced arena concerts mark Avenged Sevenfold's first proper New York City on sale appearance since 2007 and their first Los Angeles County headline on sale since 2009.  

Prior to "Nobody"'s release, the band launched an elaborate and mysterious digital scavenger hunt with puzzles, ciphers, images, and blog posts all written by Chat GPT, DALL-E 2, and AI voice modifiers. What was initiated as a cryptic hacker campaign on socials, eventually led fans to a website full of challenges to complete over the past two weeks that ultimately led to the single being 'unlocked' for release today.

"Life Is But A Dream".... written and recorded over the span of four years, was inspired by the writing and philosophy of Albert Camus. Always on the cutting edge of music and technology, A7X have partnered with Berify to include an NFC tag with bonus content on all CDs, Vinyl, cassettes and official merchandise sold on A7XWorld.com. Additionally, the cover art and packaging are by renowned artist Wes Lang.

To date, Avenged Sevenfold has sold over 10 million albums worldwide and earned two consecutive No. 1 albums on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums chart (2010’s "Nightmare" and 2013’s "Hail To The King") to go along with over a billion video views and a billion-plus Spotify streams, as well as multiple No. 1 singles on rock radio. The band are equally known for their spectacular live shows, selling out arenas and headlining the world’s most prestigious rock festivals.  

Now with the new single “Nobody” and album "Life Is But a Dream", Avenged Sevenfold is destined to add another thrilling chapter to their legacy.
