Avenged Sevenfold — City Of Evil (2-LP)

Double LP on IEX Orange/Red or 180-Gram Black Vinyl

City Of Evil is the third studio album by Avenged Sevenfold, originally released in 2005. Co-produced by Andrew Murdock, City Of Evil contains a more traditional heavy metal and hard rock sound than the band’s previous two albums, which showcased more of a metalcore sound. M. Shadows worked with vocal coach Ron Anderson, whose clients have included Axl Rose and Chris Cornell, to achieve a sound that had “grit while still having the tone.” In order to increase stamina and strength on the pedals, The Rev would sit for hours practicing until he could get up to 210 beats per minute. The album contains some of Avenged Sevenfold’s most popular and famous songs, including “Bat Country” and “Beast And The Harlot.”
