AVENGED SEVENFOLD Singer To Guest On SIRIUS SATELLITE's 'Hard Files'

February 12, 2008

M. Shadows of AVENGED SEVENFOLD will guest on the Valentine's Day edition of the "Hard Files" program on Sirius Satellite Radio's Hard Attack on Thursday, February 14 at 7:00 p.m. EST. Rebroadcasts: Fridays at noon ET, Saturdays at 3:00 p.m. ET and Sundays at 6:00 p.m. ET. "M. Shadows loves heavy metal and now he has his chance to pick out an hour's worth of music that includes some of his favorite metallic tunes. You'll hear music that he hand-picked from the likes of AT THE GATES, CHILDREN OF BODOM, METALLICA, ICED EARTH, VISION OF DISORDER, SOILWORK, MEGADETH, HELLOWEEN, DREAM THEATER, DEMONS & WIZARDS and more!" according to a press release.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD is making a previously unreleased track called "Crossroads" available for downloading to fans who bought the CD/MVI version of the band's self-titled fourth album. The song is one of 20 that the group recorded before whittling down the CD's final track list to 10. Singer M. Shadows told The Pulse of Radio that all the music the band wrote reflects its diversity. "The groundwork we've been setting for AVENGED SEVENFOLD hasn't been 'here's our sound,' it's been 'we don't have a sound, we're always gonna keep changing.' But you're always gonna know when we write something 'cause we kinda, you know, everyone kinda tends to go to the melodies that they like and that's what you like a band, 'cause you're like, 'I like what they do, that feels very AVENGED SEVENFOLD,' you know. It doesn't matter if it's a country song or more hip-hop influenced or whatever it is, it's gonna feel like AVENGED SEVENFOLD 'cause we wrote it and it came from our hearts."

Fans who bought and registered the MVI version of the disc can now enter the group's Fan Access Network (F.A.N.),a free fan club offering pre-sale tickets, never-before-seen videos and exclusive music like "Crossroads".

The band will issue more exclusive content through the F.A.N. later in the year.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD will next headline the 2008 Taste of Chaos tour, beginning on February 29 in Denver and also featuring ATREYU and BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE.
