Avenged Sevenfold have announced that they've cancelled their upcoming UK tour with Bleeding Through. Along with cancelling the scheduled dates, the band has also decided to postpone plans for a US Winter tour in order to enter the studio. The band's singer M. Shadows had this to say about the decision:

We love our loyal fans and want to continue giving them the freshest, most awesome show and material possible. We've been playing songs from City of Evil around the world for 15 months and now feel it's time to bring them something new. We're honored by the growing audiences wanting to see our show, but feel an obligation to our fans to always give them the best we have to offer. We've started writing and can't wait for our fans to hear what we're working on.

The band released City Of Evil last year.
