Trax by Avenged Sevenfold Avenged Sevenfold

We journey deep into the heart of the three arc opus, “Cosmic,” on this episode of TRAX. A song unlike anything else in the A7X catalogue, the story involves three drum kits, a vocal harmony ten years in the making and the exploration of the purpose of our being.

As the rain hammered down for weeks in California and the band found themselves at a breaking point, the story of "Buried Alive" is one of courage and unity breeding creativity on an emotional episode of TRAX.

Exploring one of the biggest songs in our catalogue, TRAX investigates how a label dispute stopped "Afterlife" from being the self-titled’s first single and tags along for a drunken trip to Big Bear; that just so happens to result in its creation.

"We Love You" throws away all the rules and so does TRAX this month. It also features Nadya from Pussy Riot kicking ass at the end about "We Love You Moar."

On this episode of TRAX, we take you on a journey through the plastic world of “Mattel.” We cover everything from Stevie Wonder to R&B to the subject of free will and are joined by Robot Chicken alumni Zoe Katz to talk about the music video she directed for the song. 

TRAX hits the road and goes behind the scenes of the start of the Life Is But A Dream... North American Tour. Hear from M. Shadows and Johnny Christ about how it was getting back on stage, their new live production, and share in the excitement with Deathbats Club holders outside of the show at The Forum in Los Angeles.
