“Time helps heal everything, and one thing that we didn’t want to do was shut down Jimmy’s legacy by quitting. We love music too much. We feel like the first 11 years of Avenged Sevenfold will always be the 11 years that we hold deepest in our hearts. But we have to move on. Shutting down Avenged Sevenfold would have been a complete failure. We all are best friends and we love to play music together, and until that ends, the band won’t end.
