From Press Release –
The heavy metal collective known as AVATAR that includes vocalist Johannes Eckerström, guitarists Jonas Jarlsby and Tim Öhrström, bassist Henrik Sandelin, and drummer John Alfredsson just released their newest single / video “In the Airwaves“.
“Avatar is defined by the challenges we put in front of ourselves. We always push for more and look for new angles. In this ever-ongoing pursuit for the next great thing, we return to one of the most important aspects of metal: Speed.”
The band continues,
“This is the fastest song we have done in what seems to be an eternity, and it feels good to push the engine to the max again. In a way, it feels like a return to something. Enjoy our rage.”
It follows the recent single “CAPTAIN GOAT.”
Avatar will be on the road with forthcoming tours supporting Iron Maiden and Metallica, along with the band’s biggest show EVER in Mexico City. Two years of tour dates are listed below.
