Avenged Sevenfold dropped Statica out of nowhere and it's dividing fans hard — is it a misunderstood art statement or just unlistenable garbage? The hosts go to war over it. 🤘

▸ Tim Montana's country-rock crossover features Jerry Cantrell and Billy Gibbons — the hosts debate whether country belongs in metal
