Watch an interview where they're asked about the Rev. That smile is gone in a half a second max. And I completely understand it too. Fans keep asking about the Rev. and it cuts them open every time
and you're good at it, not even explaining what's not to like about him not saying the guy's perfect, but saying "that's a high standard for human relationship, you sure HE deserves hate ? meaning does all your doing and saying follow that high standard ? Then you should talk about yourself and about your friends to the rest of the world cause if they make MShadows look like a bad seed, they must have some kind of halo around them or something worth at least watching^^
@@obnxsdonky9394 yeah, I hope anyone and everyone would help a turtle. As I type this I have a central american wood turtle next to me ha. and a chameleon..couple snakes yeeh
Leona S. I love how he's all badass with his black ray-bans and stuff and that angry expression on his face when he's on stage and in the music videos and in reality he's just that genuinely smiling-for-nothing guy
Ronald Deschinny he's a little bit bat shit crazy at times but Matt is one cool guy met him at the show in MI for uproar festival at det music theater. The rest of the band is very low key and down to earth as well. Johny Christ is a prankster had beer poured all over me for fun. I love all them guys.
Ronald Deschinny They're the greatest guys ever. I've grown up listening to them, and going to their shows. First time I met them I was eight, maybe nine. This was back when they were more of local sensation and not really nationally known. I'm now twenty two years old. It's now to a point where they know me by name, and will approach me when I haven't even noticed them. They're so damn generous too. If you're a loyal fan of them, they will make a point to talk to you. I was sitting on a couch in the lobby of a hotel using my laptop after a show, and the band walked through the door. I was too busy editing and uploading shots of the concert to even notice them. I see these legs walk up out of the corner of my eye, and hear "Hey, hey, girl!" and look up to see Brian their guitarist standing in front of me. I actually got my first picture with the entire band (with Arin as drummer, I had some when Jimmy was still alive, but never a full band shot once Arin became the drummer), and it was only because Brain had come up to me. If he hadn't, and they'd kept walking to the elevators, I wouldn't have even noticed them probably. I've been given guitar picks almost every single concert I go to, free tickets, free sticky passes (backstage passes), meet and greet passes, after party passes, etc. I've got a nice collection of different sticky passes for backstage access, meet and greets, after parties, etc. And solely because of their generosity. If you say hello to Brian or Zack, or their security guys or crew, they're likely to hand you some guitar picks. It seems like they carry them around just to give out. Because of how many times I've met them, I've also gotten to know much of their crew, and these guys are just awesome as fuck. And it goes to a personal level too. I've not only met the band, but I've also met Matt and Brian's parents multiple times. I've met Matt's wife on multiple occasions, and their oldest son once. They literally remember my name, and know what state I come from. It's insane just how involved and caring they are of their fans. I know this comment is long as hell, but I just have to try to emphasis just how humble, generous, and awesome all the guys in this band are. Their appreciation towards the people who support them is just incredible. I don't want to come off like I'm bragging, because that's definitely NOT what I'm trying to do and I just realized it might seem as such, in my excited recollection of my experiences. But I am trying to make it extremely clear that if you support this band, they're going to be extremely grateful and generous in return. I'm not going to say this will be everyone's experience with them. But if you go to every concert you're able to attend, and you get to know their crew and eventually them, they'll definitely begin to show their appreciation the more they get to know you. They're just super humble, awesome guys. I'll stop here, but I could keep going on and on about how wonderful they are, lol. But I think (hope) you get it.
Best people in the damn planet Matt's sister is a sweetheart she played for the Detroit shock for a few championship games before they moved to another arena in Oklahoma. She was the one I could only say hello to as the other shock girls were cool I just new her more I guess that was the best part of working for the palace of auburn hills. Too bad she's getting torn down.
They are such a bunch of lovely guys. And I loved reading your experience with them and I agree with everything you said. They are all, including the fam and crew such nice people.
He aint shy. It is just his personality.. He is metal singer. Sing Hard Rock in front of thousand of crowds and he have been doing it for years.. He cant be kind of shy to do such a thing..
@@abdur1300 This is so BS. A frontman can certainly be confident on stage and shy off screen. Some of my favorite singers were shy, on top of my mind, Chris Cornell was known to be very shy in person, even in some interviews on UA-cam he seems to be more inquisite than normal. Chris said this about himself, and Kurt Danielson - who knew him - said the same thing about Chris [search 'Kurt Danielson and Chris Cornell' on Google, it's the first thing it appears]. The same thing can be said about Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley, and they seemed even more shy than Chris. About Cobain there's even more stories of people who met him on internet [if you search by keywords 'Kurt Cobain' and 'shy']. By the way, did you ever heard about how Freddie Mercury, of all people, was in person? Lesley-Ann (his biographer) said, 'For such a flamboyant performer, he was an incredibly shy man.'
Such a humble guy. Probably my favorite vocalist of all time. He might have had some drug and alcohol problems when he was younger but he's stayed out of trouble, and slowly becoming a favorite with everyone.
Fuhh Kuuu I don’t think he’s ever done drugs. He looks very healthy, plays a lot of sports and states that he’d rather play video games than go out partying or clubbing.
Yeah, they dropped all drugs (other than prescription, obviously,) and most alcohol after the Rev passed. They've been clean for 10 years now, so it's pretty impressive
I named my daughter Valary. I heard the story of all she did to help this band. No regrets, it's a beautiful name and I couldn't be more thankful for Avenged.
This is my favorite band ever. And why would M.Shadows be embarrassed about hearing there music on the radio? I would be so happy, but everybody loves it or doesn't.
PapaDanMrMetalMan but there is so many better bands, like The Rolling Stones, Black Veil Brides, Led Zeppelin, Dimmu Borgir, The Grateful Dead, so on. a7x is such a weak band from both a rock and metal perspective. The songwriting is a joke, the vocals are horrible, and the music is bland boring cookie cutter crap that sounds like it's been pushed off an assembly line. Nothing innovative or creative at all.
Matyas and Joseph's Meme Adventures The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin are the greatest rock bands of all time. BVB are the greatest rock band of this decade. Greta Van Fleet is great but they are brand new we'll have to see where they go. But right now BVB are still the best, have been since 09.
This is one of my all time favorite bands. I'm old enough to be their mom and I have rocked out with them almost since day one. I love that there's a nomination for them and hope he wins. I really like the two covers A7X has put out of two of my other all-time favorite bands... The Stones and Pink Floyd.
I love this guy so much, Avenged Sevenfold in my opinion is one of the best bands to ever do it. Also, his voice and face just makes me smile, who would dislike such a genuine man? :D
This guy is so fucking handsome and cool. I find myself giggling like a little school girl listening to him. I'm happy for this band and their success.
1. My first albums I ever bought were 'Nightmare' & 'City of Evil' both of my favourite records I ever bought. 2. I once had the chance to go to Manchester to go see avenged sevenfold but as it turns out I was only 13 at the time and with honesty I wish I went because I loved the a7x crew all of them Edit: *The concert was 2017 & each album both added up to £24 (or $31.41) both albums were £12.00 at the time, think it was 1 year after nightmare actually came out which at the time I was 6 or 7 years old. Thank god i grew up with Avenged Sevenfold, Green Day and Hollywood Undead and Not XXXTentacion or Travis Scott.*
WhatEver_ Name_Works me fucking too. ill never forget being in target and asking my mom if i could buy it, i showed her the cover and i covered the parental advisory sticker with my finger so she couldn't see it, and i played it off with an acdc album but ill never forget walking out of the store with that man 5th grade was a crazy year lol!
WhatEver_ Name_Works if we're being honest the whole album is brilliant.. every song was great. could listen to the album front to back and know every word, lost was one of my favorites along with critical acclaim and gunslinger
This guy never looks pissed. Always a genuine smile on his face, awesome!
John Johnson he only looks sad when he played fiction from 2009 to about 2013
Watch an interview where they're asked about the Rev. That smile is gone in a half a second max. And I completely understand it too. Fans keep asking about the Rev. and it cuts them open every time
Shadows is a very smiley guy but he does however look really fierce while playing Second Heartbeat at Warped tour in 2003.
Dude used to fight people all of the time in high school. Lol He’s aged SO gracefully.
Not metal that's why
Who can hate this handsome man?
Evil Thoughts me
and you're good at it, not even explaining what's not to like about him
not saying the guy's perfect, but saying "that's a high standard for human relationship, you sure HE deserves hate ? meaning does all your doing and saying follow that high standard ?
Then you should talk about yourself and about your friends to the rest of the world cause if they make MShadows look like a bad seed, they must have some kind of halo around them or something worth at least watching^^
Absolutely no one because he is one of the greatest vocalists of all time!
Evil Thoughts no one will ever hate this band... why would they ? If they do, they don't know great music when they hear it!
I'm not like a big fan of a7x but i have to say m shadows is a cool guy
He's like the guy who would stop the car to help a turtle cross the road, so cute and smiling...
no hes the guy that would take the turtle home and love it forever
@@obnxsdonky9394 yeah, I hope anyone and everyone would help a turtle. As I type this I have a central american wood turtle next to me ha. and a chameleon..couple snakes yeeh
@@obnxsdonky9394 So .....I want to be that turtle 🤣😂
Bit wired to call a grown man cute
@BigFishAfro It's not wired nor weird to call a grown man cute. 🙄
Quit being so dramatic.
honestly the most adorable metal singer
YES
DEFINITELY
My best friend and I refer to him as the 'golden retriever of metal' but obviously not to his face haha
He just looks so pure
Sierra Lynn that is because he is...👍🤘👍
Sierra Lynn Shadows at first glance always looks so humble and easy going you could get along with him very well.
I love it how he just seems genuinely happy. He's just that kind of guy you want to be happy.
Leona S. I love how he's all badass with his black ray-bans and stuff and that angry expression on his face when he's on stage and in the music videos and in reality he's just that genuinely smiling-for-nothing guy
Leona S. he looks genuinely stoned, but he put in eye drops from what it looks like
when he feels sad he just looks at his bank account and smiles again lol
@@faithhook3567 Fr

Oh man, his eyes are really pretty!
..don't forget those dimples! :)
Yeah, that’s why when he takes off those aviators he really goes from looking like a badass legend to a really cute guy with those eyes!
HE NEVER AGES! So handsome!
The title and him smiling like that, makes it look like he is going to talk about how he lost his virginity 😂
ifkrdbdbvv
True xD
I thought it was gonna be about that XD
"I'm M Shadows and this was my first time- whoa, ouch, stop hitting me, damn it!"
I was worried it was gonna be about that.
What a sweet, gentle and kinda shy guy, I like him a lot. And he's eyes, omg, what a color!
Shy O_o he gets mad crazy on stage in front of thousands of ppl
@@howardmathews5572 Well, his job is being the frontman of a metal/rock band.
He aint shy. It is just his personality.. He is metal singer. Sing Hard Rock in front of thousand of crowds and he have been doing it for years..

@@definitelynosebreather agree mate
I feel like an obnoxious fangirl but when he smiles i smile too. It's weird
Smiles, just like laughter, are contagious.
I identify myself as gender fluid and I smile when he doesn't smile but when he smiles I stop smiling.
I'm not the only one then haha xD he's adorable!
Jared what does it have to do with your gender lol okay
Me too, he's pretty handsome. nohomo tho.
M Shadows is such a great guy. RIP REV
Such a humble guy. Probably my favorite vocalist of all time. He might have had some drug and alcohol problems when he was younger but he's stayed out of trouble, and slowly becoming a favorite with everyone.
Fuhh Kuuu I don’t think he’s ever done drugs. He looks very healthy, plays a lot of sports and states that he’d rather play video games than go out partying or clubbing.

Yeah, they dropped all drugs (other than prescription, obviously,) and most alcohol after the Rev passed. They've been clean for 10 years now, so it's pretty impressive
@@metalheaddd97 dude. h's definitely done drugs before lmaooooooo
I know Johnny did drugs when stating out with the band, but I doubt M. ever did them.
Such a laid back dude...well deserved
HOW CAN THIS MAN BE SO FREAKING HANDSOME PLS
He is so adorable!
I named my daughter Valary. I heard the story of all she did to help this band. No regrets, it's a beautiful name and I couldn't be more thankful for Avenged.
Omg M. Shadows is so beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
He is a man
A man can be beautiful... I concur
You could name her more loosely and make it Emily Shadows. So he Nick name would be Em. Shadows. I think it's,cute.
Caro Linares I know I can’t He’s beautiful
He is beautiful. Love his speaking voice, smile and eyes
Seriously the most beautiful man ever. Swoon!
I love his personality and his gentle voice; he really breaks the stereotype that people have about metal artists
the most handsome frontman I've ever seen. Wow he's ageless and seems like such a chill and shy dude compared to his onstage persona
His smile, maaaan. I love this guy!
Goddamned!! He is so so cute, and he is the frontman of heavy metal band. I mean, how??
What a gorgeous man!!❤️😩😭👏🏼😍
He has so much warmth in his eyes. Completely matches his actual personality.
He has beautiful eyes

Zayne Kauffeld I'm on a Black Sabbath kick now. Just listened to Snowblind and Fairies Wear Boots. Kick-Ass songs.
I had the HUGEST crush on him! Who am I kidding? I still do lol
‘Hey I'm Matt Shadows and this is my first time'.....
That's what she said!
joban sidhu soon enough lol
She said that she was M. Shadows?
If she said "I'm Matt" then you should probably get out of there bro
gabrocki 😂
not funny, give the man some respect, but fuck very true
I love his eye color

m shadows is hands down THE MOST precious human being on this earth I'm once again about to fucking bawl my eyes out over him 😭🥺
He's so pure and adorable ❤
He looks like a nice guy, not just in a musical aspect, but in the way he talks.
ArtificialSatellite 022 Then he has that stage persona that makes it seem you don't want to fuck with the guy. Lol
Best metal singer ever probably
Great vídeo. Love m shadows
His speaking voice is, like, soothing.
He’s so dang cute!!!
This guy is so fucking handsome and cool. I find myself giggling like a little school girl listening to him. I'm happy for this band and their success.
I fall in love with his smile
That's cool that a girl is named Em Shadows and whatever is the last name of that person.. That's pretty neat...
I like the way you sing, the way you smile and the way you talk.. OMG So handsome 😍
damn, his eyes are one of the most beautiful that i have ever seen

Just came accross this video and I have to say, i knew he was handsome..but didn't realise he is actually gorgeous!
Soooo humble
he has a pure soul
Shocking how down to earth and just damn cool he is very unpretentious.
He’s so honest and wholesome. Hahahahaha could you imagine the rest of the guys doing this
Lol my first album i bought with money was A7X self titled.

Dylan Estes hellyeah. I was in the 7th grade at the time. I had to get it. Favorite song is Afterlife but Lost is a awesome song.

Dylan Estes oh yeah of course it is. There’s not one bad song
Me too!! I didn't think I would find other people that did the same thing
What a charming guy✌🏻
Badass and so humble
If I were him I would turn up the volume all the way then do the crazy laugh they do in the background of some of their songs.
