AVENGED SEVENFOLD: Warner Bros. Records Question-And-Answer Session Available Online
August 27, 2013AVENGED SEVENFOLD took part in a question-and-answer session earlier today (Tuesday, August 27). The session, which was hosted by Nicole Alvarez of the Los Angeles radio station KROQ, took place at the Warner Bros. Records Patio in Burbank, California and is now available for viewing below.
AVENGED SEVENFOLD recently notched the fifth No. 1 single of the band's career with "Hail To The King", the title track of its newly released album. What sets AVENGED SEVENFOLD apart from a number of other current rock acts is that they have not used outside songwriters to help them write songs for the radio. In fact, singer M. Shadows told The Pulse Of Radio it never occurred to them. "I didn't even know many rock bands used other writers," he said. "I knew they did in the past — I knew Alice Cooper used to and, you know, AEROSMITH would use other writers. Coming from Warped Tour and the punk rock background that we came from, it never even crossed our mind. To us, it's like, we try to create our art, and if we don't have that creative outlet and it's not working, I'd rather just wait it out until something that we want to say and we want to put down comes. But bringing in another writer never, ever crossed our mind."
"Hail To The King", the band's sixth studio album, arrived on August 27.
The CD is AVENGED SEVENFOLD's follow-up to 2010's chart-topping "Nightmare".
AVENGED SEVENFOLD will begin a fall headlining North American tour on October 3 in Chicago, concluding on October 26 in Las Vegas. Support on the road trip will come from DEFTONES and GHOST.
