ARTIST direct: Albums We Hope Change The Game In 2013 ARTI

Deathbatnews.com - 
ARTISTdirect have put up a feature “Albums We Hope Change
In The Game In 2013″ in which
Avenged Sevenfold and their sixth
studio album get a mention .
Avenged Sevenfold — TBA
Avenged Sevenfold indisputably
own modern hard rock and heavy
metal right now.
Very few bands in this day and
age can debut at #1 on the
Billboard Top 200 and sell out
arenas all over the world. They’re
in the position to really elevate the
genre once more with their
forthcoming sixth full-length
studio album.
Nightmare emphasized hard-
hitting grooves and searing solos.
Here, the band’s desire is to
return to the roots of classic
metal—something they’ve always
had a great handle on. M.
Shadows has mentioned going
back and studying everything
from Pantera to Led Zeppelin.
However, this will undeniably be
Avenged Sevenfold and Avenged
Sevenfold alone. Their most recent
track “Carry On” charged
forward with old school-style
lyrics and mind-numbing
fretwork, standing out as one of
their heaviest and best yet. It’s
still simply a prelude of what’s on
the horizon though.
Heavy metal needs to come back
as the number one genre and, if
anybody can once again carry it
to that status, it’s Avenged
Sevenfold.
