The Stage (Deluxe Edition) by Avenged Sevenfold - DeepRiffs

ALBUM Explicit

The seventh studio long-player from the veteran California-based metal ensemble, and their first new collection of music to feature ex-Bad Religion drummer Brooks Wackerman behind the kit, The Stage sees Avenged Sevenfold rolling up their sleeves and delivering an ambitious concept LP. Dropped with little to no promotion -- WWE superstar and Fozzy frontman Chris Jericho leaked the album's original title, Voltaic Oceans, via his Instagram account a month prior to the release -- the narrative concerns itself with the Orwellian consequences of a world struggling to adapt to the myriad complexities of artificial intelligence -- there's even a spoken word appearance by celebrity astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson. Despite some forays into Floyd-ian space rock -- the soloing in the orchestra-driven "Roman Sky" is positively Gilmour-esque -- the 11-track set mostly sticks to the kind of propulsive, melodic carnage that fans have come to expect from the group, albeit with a progressive metal twist. Avenged Sevenfold may have expanded their sonic horizons, but The Stage is more Operation: Mindcrime-era Queensrÿche than it is Muse, and for all its opining on nanotechnology and interstellar travel, it still feels rooted in heavy metal tradition. [In 2017, The Stage was released in a two-CD Deluxe Edition with an 11-track bonus disc featuring such tracks as "Dose" from the soundtrack of the mobile game Dungeon Hunter 5; covers of songs including "Runaway," "As Tears Go By," "Wish You Were Here," and "God Only Knows"; and live versions of "The Stage" and "Paradigm" recorded at the O2 Arena in London.] ~ James Christopher Monger
