Avenged Sevenfold’s M. Shadows was recently interviewed by Billboard, and mentioned that the band are getting ready to “express [their] selves with an album and maybe not go drag [“The Stage“] out too much longer.” They don’t have any songs yet, but they may begin writing after “talk[ing] for a couple months.”
Shadows said the following:
“We’re really excited where our head space is. Just musically we feel like we want to express ourselves with an album and maybe not go drag [“The Stage“] out too much longer. There’s no new songs. We’ll probably talk for a couple months before we even start writing. There’s just so many cool new influences and all these new things we’ve been talking about, sparking us to think about different things outside of the box. I’m sure we’ll throw those ideas around. I already know it’s going to be different and cool, and that’s just exciting for me.”
In other news, he also said the band are planning a “really big summer tour,” which will hit some of the same markets as their tour with Metallica. Head to Billboard to read the full interview, and stream a live version of “The Stage” from the upcoming deluxe version of the album (out December 22).
