Drummer Terbaru Avenged Sevenfold

Avenged Sevenfold akhirnya masuk dapur rekaman untuk merekam album terbaru.Nah kali ini mereka masuk dapur rekaman tanpa The Rev.

Gosip yang beredar bahwa The Rev akan diganti oleh Cobus Potgeiter ternyata keliru. Dalam pernyataan resmi di situs resmi mereka, Avenged Sevenfold masuk studio untuk rekaman dengan merekrut drummer Dream Theater yaitu Mike Portnoy. Kita kenal Mike adalah salah satu drummer terbaik dunia. Dia mengatakan adalah kehormatan bisa melakukan rekaman dengan Avenged Sevenfold dan terutama mengisi tempat The Rev

Pernyataan Avenged sevenfold :

"I want our fans to know that with Jimmy in our hearts, our journey to record has officially began. Jimmy helped leave this world an amazing gift and now it’s our job to make sure to deliver that gift to our fans. We asked Jimmy’s all time favorite drummer Mike Portnoy to record on behalf of him. Mike said it would be an honor and without question that’s what Jim would have wanted. Its comforting to us that someone like Mike, who is undoubtedly revered as one of the best drummersin the world, held such respect and adoration for the Rev’s abilities. Even though it will never be the same without our brother by our side, his essence lives in our hearts and through the music he helped create. He was a legend before any of the success or any of that bullshit and we are fucking excited to lay this down for our fans, and especially for Jimmy."
