They did it! They actually did it! The underdog metal band from Gothenburg, Sweden Avatar has the number-one rock song in the United States. The song “The Dirt I’m Buried in” from the album Dance Devil Dance has given them their very first number-one song. Also this week we see a debut in the top 21 from Metallica. Check out the rest, in order, below with the music videos to go with them.
Speaking of Avatar, they’ll be spending the fall opening up one of the most theatrical hard rock tours since the days of Kiss and Alice Cooper. Co-headlined by Ice Nine Kills and In This Moment the tour kicks off just in time for Halloween. Maria Brink (vocals) and Chris Howorth (guitar) join the show this week to talk about their new album Godmode and this incredible tour. Full conversation on the podcast Cutter’s Rockcast.
