From Release: The heavy metal visionaries collectively known as AVATAR have finally unleashed their latest masterwork Don’t Go in the Forest. \u00a0Avatar’s growth and momentum has only accelerated in recent years. There’s the critically acclaimed, 2023-released album Dance Devil Dance, which included their first #1 at Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Airplay, “The Dirt I’m Buried In.” There have been scores of sold-out headline shows across the globe, and an actual fossil named after them. The list goes on and on. Avatar shows no sign of pausing to take a breath in their quest for absolute world domination \u2014 much less stopping.<\/p>\n

We caught up with Johannes to talk about Avatar\u2019s new album \u2018Don\u2019t Go In The Forest\u2019, its creation, touring, impressing other bands crowds, coming back to Australia, influences, and so much more…<\/p>\n
