Avenged Sevenfold Premiere Not So Far Away

We received the following word from Avenged Sevenfold: The band will premiere the video for their current single "So Far Away" tomorrow, May 10th on MTV, MTV2, MTVu, and MTV.com.

The video is a tribute to the band's late drummer Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan and celebrates the long-time friendship the band members have shared since forming Avenged Sevenfold in Huntington Beach, CA, in 1999.

The video was directed by Wayne Isham, who has directed videos for such artists as Metallica, M�tley Cr�e, Megadeth, and Def Leppard, among many others.

The heartfelt quality of the video is in keeping with the emotional resonance of the song, a very personal goodbye to Sullivan that appears on the band's gold album Nightmare.

Fans in the UK can see the video on MTV Rocks and at www.mtv.co.uk/avenged.
