Avenged Sevenfold So Far AwayWatch at the source
Avenged Sevenfold ease back on their heavy-metal attack for “So Far Away,” a hard-rock ballad built on acoustic warmth, aching melody and soaring guitar work. Taken from Nightmare, it channels the band’s intensity into grief rather than aggression. Directed by Wayne Isham, the 2011 video serves as a raw, emotional tribute to their late drummer.
