Welcome to the Family

This hard-hitting track is the second single by American metal band Avenged Sevenfold, from their fifth studio album, Nightmare. The song is the band's second single released without former drummer "The Rev," who died on December 28, 2009. Singer M. Shadows and bassist Johnny Christ said in Avenged Sevenfold's "making of" series on YouTube that the song was inspired by The Rev.
