Heres my lil A7X “4 Horsemen Albums” Theory
I think Avenged Sevenfold might be lining up their albums with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Keep in mind i was high ASF when I thought about this. Its more of a "Oh shit that'll be so siiiiick bro" kind of moment than an actual theory (I may be crazy) but this is what I think based off seeing their new pfp that goes along with the idea of WAR.
Each album matches one Horseman:
The Stage: Famine (Black Horse)
Not literal hunger, but humanity losing meaning and control like a “mental” or “spiritual” famine. The Horseman of the Apocalypse most directly aligned with stars and the galaxy is the Black Horse. The entire album is about the stars and the galaxy
Life Is But a Dream…: Death (Pale Horse)
Focuses on death, existence, and what it all means this one fits almost perfectly. The entire album is based on the idea of Death (Great freaken album btw)
“Magic” (Next album)?: War (Red Horse)
If the newer stuff is about chaos or conflict, that lines up with war with all the ideas coming from just the two art pieces from Magic and the new pfp. If it goes the way im thinking then this whole album will be about War and Genocide and killing and what not. Song was sick and fits with the theme
Final album: Conquest/Pestilence (White Horse)
This would complete the set either about control, power or some kind of spreading corruption.
Call me crazy but this is my theory ☺️ this is just for fun
