• Albums That Made an Impact on Lzzy Hale

  Lzzy Hale informed Swedish outlet RockSverige which three metal records she still revisits.

  Disturbed’s The Sickness and Sevendust’s Home made the list, along with Ozzmosis, the 1995 Ozzy Osbourne offering. Check out her reasons behind the picks here!

   

• Synyster Gates Tattoos Fans

  Avenged Sevenfold held a gathering for their Deathbats fan club, where fans could get tattoos from lead singer Synyster Gates with only one catch; Gates is not a professional tattoo artist!

  The results were some of the worst tattoos you’ll ever see, which the fans were more than happy to share on social media.
