Avenged Sevenfold


In December 2013 AVENGED SEVENFOLD celebrated their No. 1 album “Hail To The King” with a sold out arena tour taking in Manchester, Birmingham and Londonís Wembley Arena.

Now the band are set to return to the UK bigger and badder than ever. They have announced an eight date UK tour for January 2017 which includes London’s The O2.

They have also scored a series of Top 10 singles at multiple formats, including “Bat Country”, “Almost Easy”, “Scream”, “Nightmare”, “Welcome To The Family”, “So Far Away”, and “Hail To The King”, and their latest, “Shepherd of Fire”.
