Avenged Sevenfold are becoming a well known band in the metal industry.  The five piece was first formed when the members were still in high school and struggling to get their music heard by the locals. When they released Sounding The Seventh Trumpet & Waking the Fallen they began to gain a fanbase which will become a faithful army that will support the band no matter what. From that moment on they have been touring non stop with well known bands and big summer festivals like Warped Tour leaving a huge impression on concert goers. They hail from Orange County, California, where they grew up listening to bands like Pantera, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Bad Religion, Misfits, Guns N Roses and NOFX.  With the success of their major label release City of Evil in 2005 they are going to be touring with metal legends and influences Guns N Roses and Metallica. Avenged Sevenfold are certainly headed for greatness.
