AVENGED SEVENFOLD HAD WARPED ENEMIES?

Avenged Sevenfold seems like the ultimate team player, but comments by some of the smaller bands on the festival were not too flattering about the band. Many times it is rumors that are generated on the internet, but sometimes it goes a lot deeper.

The Rev, drummer for Avenged Sevenfold, said that many of the negative comments come out of jealousy for the band, and one rumored rift is not a rift at all said The Rev.

“We are untouched by the friction. There’s no, like… People frequently ask us about Atreyu. They’re friends of ours it’s all good, you know. There are a lot of bands that talk sh-t on us and hate us and think we’re f–kin a–holes just to get attention. Lots of bands that are smaller than you will talk on you, I don’t know, just to get attention. They have to get attention for something.”

Avenged Sevenfold’s latest release is City Of Evil, and the band’s “Bat Country” made inroads in 2005. For 2006 the band plans to resume its “Cities Of Evil” tour January 19 in Tucson, Arizona. Prepare for the band to swing by a venue near you.
