All the errors made by Avenged Sevenfold on the White Album, according to M. Shadows

Despite the commercial success of the 2007 album, Singer of the American Band takes negative notes on the conduct of work

In 2007, releasing their fourth studio album – which bears the name of the band and is also known as “Album Branco” – the avenged sevenfold obtained good commercial results. The work has sold over a million copies over the years and has received a platinum certificate in United States.

However, none of this prevented the singer M. Shadows recently underlined, in an interview with Ryan J. Downey (Via Guitar.com), several errors made to discretion the disc. Not only the band, but for their team.

The singer, whose real name is Matt SandersHe started complaining about the choice of the first singles. According to him, the ideal would be to have highlighted “Afterlife” instead of “Critical granted” AND “Almost easy”.

M. Ombre, first of all, contextualized the case:

“I love the Tom Whaalley (Ex CEO from Warner Bros. This helped to take A7X in the early 2000s). I think he has done fantastic things for our career. He is still a dear friend. But we led him to listen to The White Album (the homonymous album) and thought (as a single): ‘Afterlife’Without a doubt, this is a huge song. This is a huge single. We played for Tom Whalley and turned around and said: “This is a bit Deformed tour (Itinerant Punk Rock Festival), right? ‘

So he explained:

“And then he simply brought everyone to the room, all in the right back, the right attention. You could see the change. So everything started going to other paths that clearly were not the right move.”

The singles desired by Sevenfold Avenged

For the singer, it would be better to bet on the songs “Afterlife” AND “A small piece of paradise”. The first also came out as a single later, but does not give way to M. Shadows that I would like:

“If you really have a macro view”,Adilà AND ‘A small piece of paradise ‘ These are the two who are on top of that album. But then, when we finally came to ‘AdilàWhich was the fourth single, they cut the ground. It is that thing: as if every wrong decision could completely ruin the album. And this song was already. “

Reaction of the white album

The “white album” of avenged sevenfold Ended up receiving conflicting reviews. Even with good performances on the graphs, he did not satisfy the specialized criticisms, nor the members of the group itself, such as M. Shadows.
