I’ve been a fan since 2005 and I love all their albums however LIBAD just hits different. I’d say is right up there with Nightmare in terms of my personal favorites. Maybe it’s because this new album came out at just the right time for me. The combination of skeletons in space is especially beautiful. Whatever it is I can’t get enough of the new album and of this gorgeous song. Brings me to tears every time.

This song is from their Album 'Life is but a dream' released last year, June 2nd 2023 following a 5 year break. It's what's commonly known as the fan favourite from what I've seen and it's a great showcase song for introducing the 'new' album and the bands overall talent to new listeners. The band gets alot of unnecessary hate for simply not sticking to one style, but for me they're incredible and yes, I am biased but I love watching Avenged reactions and can tell you appreciate their brilliance. +1

I’d do anything to have that feeling back. I think that’s what true love feels like. I don’t need love anymore I have that transition now. I literally spiritually levitated.
