Californian metallers Avenged Sevenfold have had their latest record ‘Hail to the King‘ certified gold in the United States, an achievement that seems unfeasable in this day and age.

The album, released last year has now shipped more than 500,000 copies, and has charted in top 10’s in numerous countries around the world despite being met with criticism about the band ‘plagerising’ other songs to fill the album.

Nevertheless, this still is a briliant achievement for the band and we wish them our sincerest congratulations!
