Welcome, everyone, to the inaugural edition of Why We Love This Band, a new series conceived and co-developed by the Super Saiyan Death Metal God himself, Nick, and our Captain, Mike! This time, the dynamic metal duo take on the discography of one of their all-time favorite metal bands, Avenged Sevenfold!

What’s going on, everyone? This is your Captain speaking, and welcome to a brand new segment that Nick and I are introducing to Renegade Jukebox! There are two reasons why we decided to start with Avenged Sevenfold. One is because they just released a new album titled Life Is But a Dream… The other reason is because this was one of those formative bands that helped define my taste in music during my adolescence. Tune into the podcast to hear the full discussion of Avenged Sevenfold’s entire discography, lineup changes, and our own personal histories with the band.

That’ll do it for this episode! Thank you all for joining us! Please visit https://entertainmentcommunityfund.org/ and donate under the designation of Film and Television if you wish to support those that are effected by the 2023 WGA Writers’ Strike!

You are absolutely WRONG about Silence In The Snow. Tonight, Nick and Mike cover what might just be the most contentious Trivium album. One mired by circumstance, member changes, and a changing metal scene from the New Wave of American heavy Metal, to the Octane Metalcore and pre-TikTok influencers telling you not to like this album. But actually how is the music on display? Well, listen and hear Nick & Mike defend this gem.

Jukebox returns with the next episode in The Trivium Retrospective, Vengeance Falls. Nick & Mike confessed in the last episode that it had been a long time since either of them actively jammed the album. So how does it hold up? Sit back, relax and get ready to Ooh ah ah ah as Trivium collaborate with David Draiman. (The results fair considerably better than Disturbed last two albums.)

New decade. New rules. New Trivium, figuratively and literally. In Waves is a huge turning point in the band's catalog, one the band insisted was a necessary step to them continuing. Is the album a shower or a grower? Or would we not see what they were going for on later albums? Listen and find out.
