AVENGED SEVENFOLD's VENGEANCE, CHRIST And WACKERMAN Cover MISFITS' 'Astro Zombies'

October 24, 2023

In celebration of Halloween this year, AVENGED SEVENFOLD has shared its cover of the classic MISFITS song "Astro Zombies".

Earlier today, the AVENGED SEVENFOLD YouTube channel was updated with an audio clip of guitarist Zacky Vengeance, bassist Johnny Christ and drummer Brooks Wackerman performing "Astro Zombies". The band also included the following message: "It's that time of year where Zacky, Johnny and Brooks transform into fiends to bring you a new take on a classic MISFITS song. Enjoy?"

In 2022, Vengeance, Christ and Wackerman released their version of "Last Caress", while 2021 saw them reworking "Hybrid Moments".

"Astro Zombies" takes its name from the title of the 1968 film "The Astro-Zombies".

AVENGED SEVENFOLD made its first festival appearance in five years on May 19 at Welcome To Rockville at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD's first concert since June 2018 took place on May 12 at AREA15 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD has just completed the second leg of its extensive "Life is But A Dream…" North American tour featuring support from FALLING IN REVERSE.

The first leg with support from ALEXISONFIRE and KIM DRACULA included thirteen cities across the U.S. and Canada, such as Mansfield, Québec City, Tinley Park, Calgary, and more.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD is continuing to tour in support of its latest album, "Life Is But A Dream…", which sold 36,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in its first week of release to land at position No. 13 on the Billboard 200 chart.
