AVENGED SEVENFOLD Cancels U.K. Tour

September 14, 2006

According to ClickMusic.com and Rock-Sound.net, AVENGED SEVENFOLD has cancelled its previously announced U.K. tour with BLEEDING THROUGH.

The band, who will now appear at a one-off show at London's Astoria on September 27, has released the following statement regarding the cancellation:

"Things have been insane for us lately and with 'City of Evil' exploding Stateside, our commitments here in the U.S. have made it impossible for us to head overseas right now. (The Astoria show) will be the world premier of our brand new, headlining stage show that's going to absolutely blow you away. This is the same show we're bringing to the States, but we're gonna debut it for you guys in London."

AVENGED SEVENFOLD began a three-week North American tour on September 7 in Anchorage, Alaska, finishing up in Quebec City, Canada on September 21.

The band will do one more round of U.S. shows beginning in November, before hitting the studio in 2007 for its new album. KILLSWITCH ENGAGE and BLEEDING THROUGH will be the opening acts.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD singer M. Shadows recently told MTV.com that the follow-up to 2005's "City of Evil" will surprise fans. He hinted, "All I can say is, it's going to be a different sound for us — something no one's heard before and no one expects."
