AVENGED SEVENFOLD ‘SOUNDING THE SEVENTH TRUMPET’ 2LP (Exclusive – Limited to 500, Purple & White Swirl w/ Purple Splatter Vinyl)

LABEL: HOPELESS RECORDS
RELEASE DATE: 12/18/2026
VARIANT: Purple & White Swirl w/ Purple Splatter Vinyl 2LP

The first full-length blast from the future icons, 2001’s Sounding the Seventh Trumpet finds Avenged Sevenfold at their rawest. It’s a record that embraces the chug-forward churn and harmonized squeals of turn-of-the-century O.C.metalcore (“Turn the Other Way”), while also weighing in on gothic melodicism and a dash of skate-punk. Vocalist M. Shadows is at his most primal, but he mixes fierce snarls with an Eighties-inspired power-croon that’d he’d hone into a weapon of mass destruction on future releases. While missing key players from A7X’s golden age, it’s a fascinating peek into a band on the rise. Spin the O.G. sound now on limited “Purple-and-White Swirl with Purple Splatter” vinyl.
