Avenged Sevenfold have been doing their thing for quite some time now, and they’ve been recording some covers recently, and they decided to share their take on Pink Floyd’s classic song “Wish You Were Here.”
“This is the song that started us down the rabbit hole with our recent cover recordings,” said M. Shadows. “I’ve always loved this song and though I felt it would be impossible to capture the somberness of the original, we approached it with another purpose.”
“There’s a poignancy to the song that seems appropriate with everything going on in the world today. We put a bit of a modern twist on it to reintroduce it at a time when it might help capture what some of us are feeling.”
