Description
From Event details at PublicBroadcasting.net!: Buckcherry & Avenged Sevenfold
With Saving Able & Papa Roach
Buckcherry Dubbed the “Next Great American Rock Band,” has evolved from playing in front of 200 people to sold-out crowds of tens of thousands in just two years. Buckcherry will be touring in support of their latest album, Black Butterfly, which was recently named iTunes Rock Album of the Year. The album produced iTunes choices for the #2 Rock Song of the Year, “Too Drunk…” and the #8 Rock Song of the Year, “Rescue Me,” as well as critically acclaimed songs such as “A Child Called It” and “Don’t Go Away.” The album debuted at #8 on Billboard’s Top 200, giving the band their first Top 10 album debut. Black Butterfly follows the platinum success of 15, and hit songs like “Lit Up,” “Everything,” “Crazy Bitch” and the mainstream crossover smash “Sorry.” Black Butterfly was also recently ranked #1 on Stephen King’s Top 10 albums of 2008 for Entertainment Weekly, stating, “Black Butterfly was the best hard-rock album I heard this year.” The video for “Don’t Go Away” can be seen on VH1.
Avenged Sevenfold (or A7X) the metal core outfit were still attending high school in Huntington Beach, CA, when they formed their band in 1999. Nevertheless, it didn't take long for M. Shadows (vocals), Zacky Vengeance (guitar), Synyster Gates (guitar), the Reverend (drums), and Johnny Christ (bass) to make an impression with their aggressive hybrid of metal and punk-pop. The band made its official debut in July 2001, releasing Sounding the Seventh Trumpet on the Good Life label before moving to the Hopeless roster for 2003's Waking the Fallen. Warner Bros. took interest in the band's aggressive sound and issued its breakthrough release, City of Evil, in June 2005. The album reached number 30 on Billboard's Top 200, propelled in part by the Top Ten success of the single "Bat Country." The accompany music video was heavily rotated on MTV and Fuse, where live appearances also helped boost Avenged's growing profile, and the band ultimately won the Best New Artist Award (though they were hardly newcomers) at the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards.
As demand for their music increased, Avenged Sevenfold canceled their tour dates for fall 2006 and decamped to Houston, TX, where they set to work on a fourth studio album. Boasting a grittier sound than previous releases, the self-titled/self-produced disc appeared in October 2007, debuting at number four on the Billboard Top 200 and spinning off the radio single "Almost Easy." Avenged Sevenfold helped support the release by touring North America on the Taste of Chaos tour. -Christina Fuoco, All Music Guide
