As of 2008, Sounding the Seventh Trumpet has sold 200,000 copies worldwide. The title 'Sounding the Seventh Trumpet' derives its name from the book of Revelation, specifically referencing chapter 11 and the sounding of the last (seventh) trumpet, signifying the end of the world. Valary DiBenedetto (M. Shadows' wife) performs vocals on the track "The Art of Subconscious Illusion". The album was released as 2x12 vinyl, LP, 33 ⅓ RPM, Purple on 2008 in US.
