Avatar Country is the seventh studio album by Swedish metal band Avatar, released on January 12, 2018.

Background
The band recorded their seventh studio album throughout Summer 2017 at Spinroad Studios in Lindome, Sweden. The album was produced by Jay Ruston, noted for working with Stone Sour, Anthrax and Steel Panther.

Avatar took part in the Avatar Country World Tour 2017, touring the United States from January to February 2018, and various countries in Europe from March to April, with The Brains and freakshow attraction Hellzapoppin‘. Just one night before the album’s release, in New York City, Avatar performed six songs from the album for the first time, along with songs from their previous albums.
