Avenged Sevenfold maintains its tradition of covering the Misfits every Halloween. This time, the metal band has presented two classics from horror-punk legends: “Skulls” and the appropriately titled “Halloween.”
Like A7X's previous covers of Misfits songs, guitarist Zacky Vengeance takes on lead vocals, offering a smooth baritone that closely emulates Misfits frontman Glenn Danzig's signature croon.
Two years ago, Vengeance led Avenged Sevenfold on a cover of “Last Caress,” and last year they took on the role of “Astrozombies.”
Last week, Avenged Sevenfold played a special show at the Santa Ana Observatory performing songs exclusively from 2003. Wake up the fallen and 2005 evil city. Frontman M. Shadows got into the Halloween spirit by wearing a skeleton costume during the concert.
Next month, A7X will play select shows in Brazil, India and Peru, while continuing to promote their latest album, Life is nothing but a dream…launched in June 2023.
