Avenged Sevenfold have a new album coming out later this year, and today we got our first taste.
The band posted a teaser on their official website and they're making you work for it. Super-sleuth Axl Rosenberg of MetalSucks explains:
[Y]ou need to go to their website, where you’ll find an old television/radio (pictured above). To listen to the song clip, click center left button and tune the left dial to “13″ (as in, “2013″); to watch the video, click the center right button and tune the right dial to “00″ (as in… uh… well, I dunno why it’s “00″).
If you don't want to do all that work, one inspired Youtuber did all the work for you:

Axl reminds us that this will be the first album Avenged put out without any involvement their drummer, The Rev, who passed away a few years ago of an accidental overdose.
What do you think of the band's new sounds?
They are rumored to be touring later this year with Deftones and Ghost.
