Avenged Sevenfold plans to release a new EP that will contain all four songs that the band had composed for the Call Of Duty: Black Ops franchise.
Frontman M. Shadows told U.K. magazine Kerrang about the decision to make the tracks available on a separate EP.
"We just felt these songs needed a place to live, instead of being scattered all over streaming services. We will also be releasing 'Jade Helm', which is the multiplayer score we did for 'Black Ops 3'. Until now, that has only been available on YouTube and in the game."
Speaking on the new track, Shadows said, "The song is dark and brooding. We wanted to capture a difference feeling than a straight-ahead 'zombie killer' track. These songs are good places for us to experiment with our sound. I would put this in the category of 'dark alternative.'"
The band also plans to release video for the song as well. "We will be using game footage to present the song. Further down the line we are working on some cool things with Treyarch to enhance the Black Ops 4 experience."
