see Avenged Sevenfold for free

Fans of Avenged Sevenfold have the opportunity to attend a free concert by the band on Saturday October 20th, at the Key Club in Hollywood.  The event will take place at 4:00 pm, an odd time, but the band is filming the show for an October 30th broadcast on “The List” at Myspace.  There are no tickets, only a limited amount of fans will be let in.  Oh, and to attend you must be wearing a Halloween costume.  This all coincides with the October 30th release of their new self titled album.

Eyefear, progressive metal from Australia

If you like Iron Maiden, I implore you to check out Australian rockers Eyefear.  I think you’ll be pleased with the music this band puts out.  The vocals of Danny Cecati immediately remind me of Bruce Dickinson’s aggressive melodic tone.  Keep in mind I am a bit biased here due to the fact that Iron Maiden has always been one of my favorite bands.  But Eyefear has their own approach to the progressive metal genre.  Since forming in 1994, the band has had quite a few changes in their band member lineup, but have maintained a strong sound through it all.  Their effort A World of Full Grey is awesome, released worldwide on the Dockyard 1 label earlier this year.  Go to their myspace page and listen to tracks from their latest..
