Avenged Sevenfold Announce 2023 North American Tour, Their First in Five Years

Avenged Sevenfold have announced a set of 2023 North American tour dates, which marks the band's first time hitting the road in five years.

While the group already announced two headlining performances in Los Angeles and New York City when they released the song "Nobody" earlier this month , this will be their first official tour since 2018. The run is in support of their upcoming album Life Is But a Dream, which will be out June 2 and can be pre-ordered here . Alexisonfire will serve as support throughout the trek.

See the full itinerary below.

Avenged teamed up with Ticketmaster for a new form of ticketing in order to combat scalpers and bots. Members of the band's Deathbats Club have an exclusive first chance at tickets. Individuals can request tickets from now until tomorrow (March 28) at 3PM ET using Ticketmaster’s new Token-Gated Sales platform at this location , and once the window closes, they'll be notified whether or not the request was granted.

“This new capability allows artists to get special access and rewards to specific fans they want to super serve,” David Marcus, EVP of Global Music at Ticketmaster said in a statement. “Artists like Avenged Sevenfold are using Web3 and NFTs to build deeper relationships with their fans, and we’re proud to help foster that connection through live events.”

As noted by Setlist.fm , Avenged's last concert took place on June 30, 2018 at a festival in Hungary while they were still supporting their 2016 album The Stage. Shortly after, the band had to cancel the rest of the dates they had scheduled for the year because frontman M. Shadows contracted a viral infection that posed potential long-term damage to his vocal chords. Thus, his doctors suggested he take a few months off from singing, and they haven't played a concert since.

Hailing from Huntington Beach, California, US, Avenged Sevenfold are a five-piece metalcore outfit who found mainstream success with their blend of metal, punk-pop and post hardcore that showcased their impressive musicianship.

The band came together in 1999, having formed in high school, quickly developing their sound and releasing their debut album, "Sounding the Seventh Trumpet" in 2001. Going by their aliases M. Shadows (vocals), Zacky Vengeance (guitar), Synester Gates (guitar, Johnny Christ (bass) and The Reverend, Avenged Sevenfold soon moved from Goodlife Records to the label, Hopeless, beginning work on their second record. Released in 2003, "Waking the Fallen" arrived to critical acclaim, helping to build hype around the band which drew the attention of major label, Warner Bros.

With an aggressive, punk sound that was full of melodic harmonies from their dual guitar attack, their debut for Warner Bros., "City of Evil," was to be their breakthrough album, finding them mainstream success after its June 2005 release. The album peaked at number 30 on Billboard's Top 200, bolstered by the popularity of the single, "Bat Country." The band's success was celebrated after being awarded the award for 'Best New Artist' at the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards.

Avenged Sevenfold quickly returned to the studio to work on their fourth record, the grittier and harder-edged self-titled release, which peaked at number four on the Billboard Top 200 after appearing in October 2007. Three singles from the record also broke into the top five of the UK charts, with the band quickly becoming global stars and embarking on a number of tours in support of the release.

In 2009, Jimmy "The Reverend" Sullivan, the band's long time drummer, tragically died, with the remaining members considering disbanding. However, they continued, finding a replacement in Mike Portnoy, formerly of Dream Theater, releasing "Nightmare" in 2010. It was several years before they returned with a new full length, 2013's "Hail to the King," which again brought them commercial success, reaching the number one spot on the Billboard 200 and the UK Album Chart.

Live reviews

A friend of mine tagged me in the Avenged Sevenfold's post about them coming to Singapore and I absolutely lost it. I couldn't believe they were finally coming after so long. It had been 3 years and I missed the last chance due to my final exams. I was definitely not going to miss them this time. The moment my dad got home from work, I booked my tickets.

I went with 8 of my other friends and we were in the line by 9 am, when the concert was at 7:30 pm. It was worth every second of the wait. The crowd was absolutely insane, the band was absolutely marvelous and Synyster Gates, like always, was the God of guitars! There was a mosh pit, there was adrenaline and then there was M. Shadows. His voice filling the room like of an angel singing in the heavens.

As their 'This Means War' started, one of my personal favourite, the crowds' fist pumped back and forth right at the beat and everyone was one, moving along to the rhythm of music created by a band we all loved.

No one should miss an Avenged Sevenfold concert. It's one In a lifetime experience. Moreover, who knows, you might catch Syn's autographed pick. I was lucky, I got 2! So go. Go to the concert. And never say no to it. Cheers.

Report as inappropriate

Avenged Sevenfold always delivers high energy, blow-your-ear-drums-out performances. If you like loud, you will love an A7X show.

I saw them last summer at the Orion Music Festival and was blown away. A lot of the time at a festival you lose some sound since it is outside, but Avenged Sevenfold must have found a new volume level for their amps, because it was louder than some shows that I have been to in small concert halls!

Lead singer M. Shadows was constantly prowling around the stage, shouting at the audience, and keeping the energy up. A lot of people in the crowd did not seem to be die-hard Avenged Sevenfold fans when the show started (which I guess is not uncommon for large festivals), but within a few minutes, everyone was rocking together. With the heavy guitars and smashing drums, it was hard not to get up and jump around and mosh together.

I think I danced or jumped for the entire show, and I was completely spent afterwards. There never seemed to be a quiet moment to catch my breath, which was exhilarating. I had an absolute blast at this show and would never hesitate to go see these guys again. Their live performance is second to none.

What an amazing live performance. They kept the audience engaged the entire time. I'm not their biggest fan but there was a few songs that I wish had been on the set list that weren't. Then again, that's just my preference. Regardless, Matt has an amazing voice and I was blown away. The only thing that bothered me was that the sound mix seemed a bit off which sucks because that's obviously not the band's fault. At first the bass was so low that anytime the guitars started playing harmonies the sound got really thin/empty. Also I thought that Synyster was playing sloppily (which I would have been extremely surprised if that was the case) because some parts in his solos seemed inaudible but I finally realized that the guitars were getting smothered in the mix. I only notice this stuff because I play in a band and do live shows myself so it probably didn't bother too many people besides me. Overall, 10/10 live performance, and I would totally go see them again. (Hopefully at another venue)

Avenged Sevenfold was pretty awesome! Their new album was a change in direction from the prior ones, I would say, being more melodic than Nightmare or especially their earlier works. Two great songs were Hail to the King and Shepherd of Fire, which had amazing special effects as well.

The crowd was really alive, and Matt Shadows was really interactive too. The band was presented with two flags during the concert: the Swedish one, and one with the band's Deathbat on it. The most memorable part for me was when the entire arena shouted "Hail!" during Hail to the King - it really made you shiver, even though the fires on stage neutralized it some. Obviously, though, they played plenty of songs from their older albums as well - crowd favorites were probably Almost Easy and A little Peace of Heaven, two of their most successful songs outside the arena too.

Le concert a commencé avec deux autres groupes que je ne connaissais pas: Chevelle et Disturbed.

J'avais écouté leur principaux titres malgré tout avant le concert.

Pour Chevelle, le son était un peu mal réglé et c'est dommage, ça manquait aussi un peu d'énergie. Je préfère écouter le groupe en version studio.

Disturbed, ça était une bonne surprise, beaucoup d'énergie, d'animation, le son au top.

Et pourtant en version studio, j'avais moyennement accroché.

Et enfin, le meilleur pour la fin, Avenged Sevenfold. J'ai passé un excellent moment, je ne regrette pas l'attente, mon seul regret est que ce fut trop court, notamment dû au fait qu'il y ait deux premières parties. Et je ne suis pas repartie les mains vides, j'ai réussi à attraper une affiche du concert lancer par les membres du groupe à la fin du concert! :)

The concert was FUCKING amazing! The crowd was so loud, M. Shadows were singing perfectly, as always...They played all of the best songs they have ever made, and one song, So Far Away, in loving memory of The Rev.

My favourite moment was when I screamed to M.Shadows: I love you, he looked me in the eyes and said: I love you too! It was unbelievable!!!! Everyone screamed and I got so happy... Avenged Sevenfold show how much they care about their fans, even on the stage. They look at us, they smile at us and they talk about how amazing the crowd and their fans are.

To sum it up, it was the best night in my entire life, and I can't wait until next concert <3 -Lilly

Well, I'm not sure which show I'm supposed to review, so I'll do both. I saw them on Friday at shoreline amphitheater and then on Monday at golden one center. For the 1st show we had lawn tickets, it was still good. This was my 6th time seeing them. It was my 13 year old son's 1st concert. They always put on an excellent show.

Mondays show was the best one I've been to,my 7th time seeing them , because we were right up front on the floor. It was awesome. The crowd gets pretty aggressive, but I already knew that. I ended up being pulled out from security for trying to break up a fight, so that wasn't fun, but nothing against the band, they rocked.

That show, in SLC Utah, was phenomenal. They're just amazing people who worked so hard and got where they deserve to be. I enjoyed watching the result of their hard work, and I plan to watch more shows that come around. I want to see them succeed more and accomplish more stuff in the future. They're such great people, amazing artists, great role models for aspiring musicians everywhere, and (by the twitter videos) they're amazing parents. I'll always be a death bat, not only for their music but for them as human beings. God Damn.

The Showcase for A7X is always about the catchy songs the band put through. It was a back to back of smashing hits and the crowd grow crazy just by listening to the opening riffs. The performace A7X is energetic. The chemistry between the individuals in the group is amazing as they power up each other without fail. The only problem was that the vocal did not break through the screaming crowd. Yeah the crowd were singing along and it was pretty cool but I went there to listen to M Shadow. Overall it was a great show.

Overall an amazing show.

InFlames were great when playing, but awkward in between songs when talking to the crow.

Disturbed knocked it out of the park 110%, so much pyro and flames. Simply amazing performance.

A7X were good when they played their old material. I understand they've launched a new album and title track The Stage is good, but the rest of the album is the worst material they have ever done IMHO. They played 5/6 songs from the new album and the atmosphere just died when this occurred.
