Avenged Sevenfold’s eighth studio album, Life Is But A Dream…, is imminent. To get into it all, bandleader M. Shadows connected with Joel Madden to discuss its creation, but the duo ended up in a deeper conversation about their own philosophies and the freedom of expression. Shadows also explores into the wider meaning behind the single “Nobody” and how it was born from experimenting with DMT.
