M. Shadows says Avenged Sevenfold’s next album will be out before the band’s tour next summer.
The singer shared a loose timeline for the record during a livestream interview yesterday. He didn’t give much detail, saying he didn’t want to talk about the sound of the album because he didn’t want the description to get misconstrued. Shadows explained, “The reason we don’t say much about the music is because we find that every single word we say about it just gets spun off, and there’s no way to describe music. It’s like, ‘Oh, it’s heavy, it’s fast…’ What are we gonna say about it?”
He went on to say, “It’s a work of art that we’ve worked on for a long time; we had a bunch of personal things that we’ll explain later… but we’re booking shows for next summer, and the record will be out before then.”
