Release date: 2013
Media type: CD

Produced by Mike Elizondo, Hail To The King is the sixth studio album from Huntington Beach, CA's Avenged Sevenfold, an album Revolver Magazine has hailed as “the band’s crowning achievement.” The 10-song set is the band's first written without former drummer/songwriter James "The Rev" Sullivan, who died in December of 2009. Hail To The King is the follow up to the band's 2010 release Nightmare, which earned the group it’s highest ever debut on the Billboard album chart when it took the #1 spot and spawned three #1, hit-singles “Nightmare,” “So Far Away” and “Welcome To The Family.”

Avenged Sevenfold achieved worldwide success with their platinum 2005 breakthrough City Of Evil, which featured the wildly popular single “Bat Country.” The band quickly became known for their spectacular live shows and continues to sell out arenas worldwide. In 2007, their self-titled album Avenged Sevenfold debuted at #1 on the Billboard Alternative, Hard, and Rock Charts and #4 on the Billboard Top 200 album chart. It spawned the singles "Almost Easy," "Afterlife," and "Scream" and has sold over a million units worldwide.
