In a recent video, which you can see below, Avenged Sevenfold announced that they are working on new music. The metallers were even nice enough to give a sneak peak of a couple of the demos they’ve been working on. The video was intended to announce the song that won the fan-voted March Mania competition (spoiler alert: It was ‘A Little Piece Of Heaven‘) but the band snuck in a little preview or two.

The first snippet sounds pretty far away from what the band have done on their previous endeavours, while the second assured us that they are still utilising Synyster Gates’ shredding skills.

M Shadows opened the video thanking the fans for voting in their March Mania competition, and mentioned that a lot of fans are divided about loving the A7X we’ve grown to love, and being excited to see the band introduce new ideas all the time. The two song snippets show that they are trying their best to accommodate everyone’s wishes.

What do you think of the new sounds?
