Are Avenged Sevenfold teasing some new global tour dates?

Fresh from announcing a giant stadium gig at the end of their upcoming summer North American tour with Good Charlotte, the band have taken to social media to share a new video of a spinning globe, soundtracked by Dear God, the beloved closing track from their 2007 self-titled album (‘Dear God the only thing I ask of you is / To hold her when I’m not around / When I’m much too far away…’).

Understandably hundreds of comments have already flown in from fans all over wanting tour dates, and while it’s not clear yet exactly where Avenged will be heading, it’s been teased by promoters in Southeast Asia that the band will definitely be returning to that particular part of the world (“A global heavy metal force is making its way to Malaysia,” posted Hitman Solutions yesterday).

So far, on their Life Is But A Dream… cycle, A7X have only made one UK visit: headlining Download Festival in June 2024. Onstage during that show, frontman M. Shadows admitted that, “We’re not sure yet, but this might be the only time we come here on this album cycle. We’re trying to come in 2025, but we don’t know yet.” Of course, 2025 has long gone now, but fingers crossed they could be coming again this year…
