Avenged Sevenfold have re-released their latest single ‘Mad Hatter‘ due to fans pointing out flaws in the original mix of the song. Fans across social media commented on the quality of the mix, with some describing it as “too chaotic”.
The band’s frontman M. Shadows took to the r/avengedsevenfold reddit thread to address the situation. He wrote:
“Hey Guys and Gals – I hope you are all doing well. I just wanted to update you on a situation with “Mad Hatter.”
We saw some complaints about the mix and we totally agree with you! We were pushing the limits in a lot of different ways and once the compression of streaming services and radio got a hold of it the clarity become muddied.
I heard it on the radio and was like “Oh Shit!” The good news is we live in a world were you can quickly fix your mistakes and we have done just that. On Monday all streaming services and radio will switch to this new version with more clarity but we wanted you to get it here first. Check out this link. We hope you enjoy and have a great weekend.”
Fans on the reddit thread were understandably stoked, with one redditor commenting “Wow can’t believe you guys gave us a better mix we within a couple days and also gave out a free amazing quality song in the process. This is the reason why I love you guys~”
The song is available for free download, which you can grab here.
