Following March’s monstrous Nobody, Avenged Sevenfold have just unleashed the next single from their long-awaited eighth album Life Is But A Dream…

This one’s called We Love You, and across its six-minute run time it takes in everything from techno to thrash, with fans praising A7X’s brilliantly bold experimentation and Mr. Bungle-esque feel.

And just as frontman M. Shadows promised a couple of months ago, We Love You is very much proof of his comments that the album as a whole has “got a bunch of flavours and colours, we don’t stay too long anywhere, it’s kind of in and out. It’s a different mind-set, completely reworked from what we think of as records and how they should be made. And what I mean by that is The Stage is a sprawling sort of vibe the whole time – it’s got a thing going on. But this one we were like, ‘We want to express ideas quickly, and more concise. And we want to use different ways that we’re using our instruments.’”

Watch the official VR 360° video for We Love You, which was created by Ryan McKinnon using Unreal Engine, below:

The band have also announced a last-minute headline show in Vegas tonight (May 12).

Life Is But A Dream… is due out on June 2 via Warner.
