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!

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.

Uh oh, Nick & Mike are entering controversial territory on this Jukebox episode. This time on The Trivium Retrospective, we look at the first Trivium album worth defending. The Crusade is a widely debated album. Is it just copying Metallica or is there legitimate merit to these songs? Or is it just people making shit up to hate on a band that got popular off a landmark classic album? Listen and find out.
