Question: What band wrote the album The Stage and the song The Stage?

"Moment of Surrender" is a song by rock band U2 and the third track on their 2009 album "No Line on the Horizon".  During the initial recording sessions for the album in 2007 in Fez, Morocco, the band wrote the song with producers Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois within a few hours.  Together, they recorded the song in a single take; Eno called the song's recording "the most amazing studio experience [he's] ever had".  According to him and Lanois, the track is the closest the band came to realising their original concept for the album of writing "future hymns".  The seven-minute song features gospel-like vocals in the chorus, along with a predominantly organ- and piano-based musical accompaniment.  Lyrically, the song is about a drug addict who is undergoing a crisis of faith. <SEP> The Stage is the seventh studio album by American heavy metal band Avenged Sevenfold, released on October 28, 2016 by Capitol Records after a live stream event on the band's Facebook page.  It's the first Avenged Sevenfold album to feature Brooks Wackerman on drums, who joined the band in late 2014 but wasn't revealed as Arin Ilejay's official replacement until Ilejay's departure in 2015, because the band wanted to find a drummer that would "fit in".  "The Stage" is also the band's first album to be released through Capitol Records.  It is also the band's longest studio album at 73 minutes and 35 seconds, thus beating "City of Evil" by almost a minute.  The album also features their longest song to date, "Exist", with a run-time of 15 minutes and 41 seconds. <SEP> "The Stage" is a song by Avenged Sevenfold and the first single from their seventh studio album of the same name, which was released on October 28, 2016. <SEP> The Hunger is an industrial rock band from Houston, Texas formed by brothers Jeff and Thomas Wilson along with Brian Albritton.  During the initial year of putting the band together and working on new material the band wrote and independently released the single, "Shock" in 1991 which rose to the top of the dance charts.  Industrial dance music ruled the charts in Europe along with strong ties to Chicago, Wax Trax Records, and Houston.  Subsequent releases of "Cut the Skin" and "Shoot to Kill" gained national exposure on the dance charts and club scene.  "Never Again" was self-released as a radio single and quickly rose to the top of Houston Radio Station's 93Q and 96.5 attracting the attention of independent record label Alpha International.  Stephen Bogle produced the single of "Never Again".  The band wrote and produced the album "Leave Me Alone" but due to the bankruptcy of Alpha International the record sat idle.  It was released but there were no marketing efforts behind it.  After the release of the album, the band sought out drummer Max Schuldberg and they played their first concert as a foursome opening for Peter Murphy at Southern Star Amphitheater.  They played concerts in Texas as a foursome for two years.  Along with the three founders and newest member Max Schuldberg, the band added producer Stephen Bogle as guitarist to complete the line up.  The band recorded and produced "Grip" under their own start up label, Gut Records.  "Grip" went on to sell 15,000 units with the help of a crafty rework of Bad Company's "Feel like Makin Love".  Universal Records, at the time a brand new start up label, heard of the success of "Grip" and signed the band as their second artist ever.  "Devil Thumbs a Ride", the 3rd album, had already been recorded and mastered and was about to be manufactured for another self-release when Universal stepped in to sign the band and release the album as-is.  The Hunger had a hit song in 1996, "Vanishing Cream", from the "Devil Thumbs a Ride" CD, which received heavy airplay on rock stations and reached No. 4 on the Mainstream Rock charts.  After two years of constant touring, the band finally stopped to record their second release with Universal Records, "Cinematic Superthug".  After only moderate success with the single, "Moderation", the band asked to be and was granted a release from their contract from Universal Records.  Two songs, "Shoot to Kill", also from "Devil Thumbs a Ride", and "If", from "Grip", reached No. 42 on Billboard's Dance/Club Play chart.  The band has released six albums: two on Universal Records and four on independent labels. Former original drummer (1991-2003) Max Schuldberg (voted 2002's Best Drummer by the Houston Press Music Awards) parted with the band after the five albums in 2003 and moved to Los Angeles.  Former guitarist and two time Grammy Award nominee (remixer, for his work with D.J. Cubanito) Stephen Bogle now Produces artists in the Metal, Electronic, and Pop genres.  In late 2005 Stephen Bogle parted ways with the band, and Tim Huston was quickly picked up.  With having only a few practices with the band they headed on tour with Ten Years.  Tim Huston Stayed with the band from late '05 til 2013.  "The lifestyle was just getting to overwhelming for me to handle".  "If I would have stayed, who knows what would have happened to me.  There was just no off button".  In 2013, guitarist Raf Rivera joined the lineup, and the band is currently in the process of recording their first new material in over 8 years.
