Hail to the King!

American rock band Avenged Sevenfold (also known as A7X) released their new album Hail to the King on Aug. 23, 2013.

Songs on this album include “Hail to the King”, “This Means War”, “Heretic”, and “Coming Home”. All of which have that distinguishable A7X sound.

The new album is the first one released without any contributions without A7X’s former drummer, The Rev. In December 2009, A7X’s drummer, Jimmy “The Rev” Sullivan died. Since then the group has made a slow comeback.

Reviews of A7X’s new album have been positive, and rivals their No. 1 album Nightmare. Loudwire rated Hail to the King to be a 4.5/5 stars.
