Avenged Sevenfold release new version of We Love You featuring Pussy Riot

M. Shadows has long been singing the praises of Russian protest punks Pussy Riot, and today Avenged Sevenfold have shared a new recording with the band.

The Huntington Beach gang have teamed up with Nadya Tolokonnikova for a reimagined version of this year’s wild Life Is But A Dream… single We Love You, entitled We Love You Moar.

They’ve also joined forces on a special charity balaclava, stating: “We collaborated with Nadya to create a custom balaclava with proceeds going to SOS North Caucasus. Limited to 300 – with each purchase you’ll be helping LGBTQ people facing mortal danger and persecution in the North Caucasus, Russia.”

In our 4/5 review of Life Is But A Dream…, we called the record “sublimely batshit” and praised A7X for how the joy was “in the unexpected”. “Listeners can always just head back to the start to peel back the countless layers they didn’t even realise were there,” we wrote. “A trip worth taking, over and over again.”
