Avenged Sevenfold release cover of Mr. Bungle’s ‘Retrovertigo’

AVENGED SEVENFOLD have released a new cover track!

The cover, for the track Retrovertigo [MR. BUNGLE], comes after the recent release of the band’s first ever Spanish-language release, Malagueña Salerosa. Both tracks were recorded with producer Joe Barresi (QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, TOOL). Speaking about the cover, vocalist M Shadows says, “we’re massive fans of MR. BUNGLE. Retrovertigo is one of their softer songs and a particular favorite of ours and we thought it’d be a fun twist to make a heavy version. We hope this song encourages the uninitiated to dig a little deeper into the brilliant world of MR. BUNGLE. Mike Patton is one of the greatest vocalists of our generation and it was pretty daunting for me to sing one of his songs, but we had a great time recording this track. More coming.”
