AVATAR have long been your favourite metal band’s favourite metal band.

The side of stage at every one of their US and Euro festival appearances always features a packed gallery of the who is who of rock luminaries riveted by and gaping the pure joy and spectacle.

Avatar have amassed over 100 million plays on Spotify and an incredible 163 million views on their YouTube channel with the songs  Bloody Angel, Hail The Apocalypse, Torn Apart, The Eagle Has Landed  and many more.
