The digital age… What a time to be alive.
Avenged Sevenfold have introduced a virtual reality concert experience through a new partnership with AmazeVR. Looking Inside is a special 26-minute virtual reality concert that features a mix of hits such as “Hail to the King” and “Nightmare”, along with their newer material including “Nobody,” “Mattel” and “(D)eath.”
The experience takes fans right into the Avenged Sevenfold concert experience, as the group performs amidst a dark forested dreamscape utilizing experimental angles that allows the viewer to get a close-up look at the band’s instruments and performing. The detail within the experience keeps the viewer locked in, including the detail on the drums, the changing of guitars, and the overall immersive nature. Steve Lee, AmazeVR CEO and Co-Founder, spoke on the new partnership.
“We’re giving Avenged Sevenfold fans a perfect moment frozen in time. Our technology allows app goers to preserve and experience the highest quality and detailed performance over and over again. We knew that Avenged Sevenfold was the perfect choice to debut our rock genre, they are constantly challenging the norm, experimenting with new technology, all to prioritize connecting with their fans.”
This special Looking Inside VR concert is available to download on Apple Vision Prio and meta App Lab. Users can access one free song and purchase the entire concert for the launch price of $12.99.

Decker sat down with guitarist Zacky Vengeance at Aftershock 2023 to talk about A7X’s most recent studio work. Zacky gives major props to the fans saying this record was for the fans that want to see the band push forward and for the genre to continue to be pushed forward and be bigger than ever. Zacky wants the world of heavy music to move into the future and wishes bands would do the same, slightly calling out some bands that he says are ‘phoning it in’. Check out the full chat below.
