Avenged Sevenfold (also known as The White Album)[4][5][6] is the fourth studio album by American heavy metal band Avenged Sevenfold, released on October 30, 2007, through Warner Bros. and Hopeless Records. Recorded in the middle of 2007, it is the band's first studio album to be solely self-produced. It is also their final studio album to feature The Rev performing on drums before his death during production of their follow-up album, Nightmare (2010). Originally slated for an October 16 release, it was delayed by two weeks in order to provide more time to complete bonus material and production for the record.
Although critical reception to the album was mixed compared to previous releases, Avenged Sevenfold was a commercial success, debuting at number 4 on the Billboard 200,[7] and has been a popular album amongst fans. Additionally, it won the Kerrang! Award for Best Album in 2008 and was later included in Kerrang!'s "666 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die".[8] As of 2014, it has sold over 960,161 copies in the United States and 152,123 copies in the United Kingdom;[9] it has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the United States and gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in the United Kingdom. The band supported the album with a tour, beginning a day before the release of the album and ending in August 2009.[10]
