There have been teases that Avenged Sevenfold was expected to have a new song in the forthcoming Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 video game, and now it's basically confirmed.
A trailer for the game was screened at a Gamestop managers convention and a manager who fears no repercussion of possibly losing his job recorded it and uploaded the video to Reddit. Take a look:
The song sounds like an outtake from The Stage, but regardless it's new music and should be a fun time. We'll update this post with the official trailer when it surfaces.
Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 comes out on Oct. 12 on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
Avenged Sevenfold have said they will be spending the fall writing new music in anticipation of a 2019 release. In a new interview with ABC Radio, Shadows claims the band could begin working on new material in the fall:
"Maybe October, November we'll start thinking about getting together and just throwing ideas around," the singer said. "We usually don't even write anything the first few weeks, we just kinda talk and show each other things: 'Here's some chords, here's some ideas, what do we want this thing to sound like?' So that's still in the early stages. But it's exciting."
The band is currently in a legal battle with their former label, Warner Music, and in a previous interview with Billboard, Shadows has said he wants the lawsuit resolved before moving ahead with new music:
"We have a couple things we're looking at, but right now we're still dealing with the label situation, we're dealing with the lawsuit still and just — a couple of things that we just got to kind of clean up before we move on to the next record."
