As someone who grew up along side of their albums, and learning the background of each song, this album has literally made me cry in both Joy and emotional pain. not everyone can appreciate this album, but I can never not cry during some of there songs. the lyrics and their meaning have been something i can relate to.
I had this same reaction to Cosmic, man. I cried. My husband kept trying to talk to me and i finally turned to him and went "sshhh you dont talk during church!!"
Do any of you experience musical loneliness in your personal life? My life is full of friends and family but nobody who’ll enjoy LIBAD with me. Big sads
Dude for real, everyone around me doesn't enjoy music with this depth and feeling. They all just want hooks and formulaic nonsense, I want to feel something when I hear music.
The album isn’t something you just listen to, it’s something you experience, every song is like a different genre or a mix of genres and they pull them off so well, they touch base with elements of every album, then add a whole bunch of new shit, flip it upside down and it fucks with everyone. A casual A7X fan will need to have a real open mind when listening to it because Shadows was proven right by saying it was like nothing they’ve done before, some songs were admittedly uneasy to listen to at first, but once you get used to the fact that it’s different, it grows on you, A7X have massive balls to pull off something so unique to what everyone else is doing and used to.
I was so fkn hype for this album. As someone obsessed with space, The Stage was such a good album! And I loved the direction they were moving. After Nobody, I was curious to see what was next. We Love You made me preorder the vinyl. BUT when I heard cosmic for the first time, just laying in my room with it blasting. WHEN I TELL YOU I FELT ALL THE FEELINGS. It was a legit experience. I felt this song in my soul. I agree when you say "This band can do anything" because they can and they're not afraid to. This album was a huge risk tbh. But OMFG if it didn't pay off. Watching you and other people react to this song has been my favorite thing. Seeing people really feel it and love this amazing band. I've loved A7X since Waking The Fallen. With their ability to grow, adapt and try new things, I know I'll be a forever fan until the day I die.
I’d have to agree. One of the most perfect displays of instrumental music ever. It combines so many genres over the course of the track it’s unbelievably impressive.
I will tell y'all, Avenged Sevenfold didn't just made a music. THEY'RE MADE A MASTERPIECE! All of Avenged Sevenfold's are intellectual in guise musicians! Life is but a dream album are GENIUS ALBUM OF ALL THE TIME!
This song has single-handedly gotten me into this band after not connecting with them back in the early aughts. I was stunned when it was over and actually shed tears at how poignant and ecstatic the sound was.
Try listening to it at night while riding a bike (preferably with a quality BT speaker in the backpack's side pocket, I have a JBL Flip 6 for that). Astounding.
The stage is an album worth checking out if you haven’t already. In my own opinion it’s a lot better than a lot of the stuff they’ve put out before that.
I absolutely love Cosmic, man this song is so fantastic! I think M. Shadows has one of the best rock and metal voices out there! Opinions will vary, sure, but give it to the guy, he is a huge part of what makes Avenged so great. Without him, it wouldn’t be the same band.
@@hazardgaminghg122 And the fact that he can control the amount of rasp he adds to his voice and sing as clear as day. For a Baritone the dude's range is high as fuck And his vocal technique is insane.
Seriously wish i had a friend like you that shares this much excitement about this song as i do. Youre feeling the same raw and deep emotions about everything in this song and album as i did and im so glad that other people feel the same way as i do 😢
This song ant Mattel were my instant favourites. This album was definitely worth waiting for. I personally love Matt’s voice, his high notes give me goosebumps every time
Love the reaction man. Wish I knew people that got that hyped about A7X. Remember the night it dropped I laid back in bed and just listened to the whole thing through. Just an experience I haven’t felt from an album in years.
I lost my uncle last year to health problems and this year I lost a friend of mine to suicide. This song gives me closure. This song broke me and then put me back together. Not one song in this lifetime has EVER done that to me. Avenged will always be my favorite band and the wait was WELL worth it.
Ive listened to this song around 50 times so far and even listening to it in the background of your video I still get goosebumps every single damn time. I share your emotion and I’m glad to see someone else share the same feelings that I do for this band. I don’t have anyone I can really share my love of A7X with but the Reddit/YT/ Twitter Avenged community has been great to share everything with. Thanks again and I look forward to your album review.
I am certain I have never cried to a song the first time I listened to it before this song. And I am uncertain that I ever will again. I am confident that will love this song for the rest of my life. I am thankful for Avenged Sevenfold.
this song makes me cry every single time it's been a long time since a modern piece of music touched in such a deep way they truly did something special with this album absolute legends
Yes, i felt the revs spirit flowing through the second half of the song after the solo, and the lyrics is almost like he is telling his fans and his fam and friends that even if hes physically gone hes always there beside us through the infinite force that is the universe, made me fucking cry😢😢 A7X foREVer
I'm sure the guys from the band will see your review dude Your energy is so positive towards them and so welcoming of their risk-taking and innovation, I'd be honored in their place You did a great job, and great choice for first song of the album to react to!
This is the best reaction video on UA-cam. I'm A7X absolute fan too and I enjoy this as much as you do or even more, I'm so glad we can relate on how amazing this song is. A7X is the BEST🤎🖤
This is the best song A7x has ever made is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever herd I’m 46 I been following A7x since my early 30’s this album is a masterpiece.
“He doesn’t need to be great” uhhh sir, you might wanna re-evaluate. It’s fine if he’s not your cup of tea but m. Shadows is classically trained bro, he’s objectively amazing as a vocalist. Also, syn is playing piano on this record
This song got me emotional as fuck. I listened to the album in full today, and now I’ve had cosmic on repeat and I’ve been teary eyed all morning. This song was one hell of an experience that I wasn’t expecting.
Last time an album blew me away like this was when I first heard the Masterpiece that is Angel Dust from FNM in 1992. That my friends, is a big compliment.
I heard this song on Friday in the middle of my class and I was already about to break down In tears bc so much already happened to me but then I heard this song specifically and i felt comfort knowing that this song healed me emotionally
A7X-#Reinventing the wheel every time! Cosmic is a song that only comes along once every decade or longer. Nothing touches this song this is a masterpiece a true one of one! 🤘❤️💯
The Rev is alive and well boys. This is the legacy and vision of A Little Piece of Heaven carried to fruition. Didn’t know they had it in them. 20+ year fan and I don’t remember them ever moving me like this. WOW!
I went to the Las Vegas immersive experience and I was balling my eyes out. The look people gave me was funny but it was such a powerful experience. Still cry hearing it ❤️
Update: Fantano (the person with the worst music takes ever) gave the album a not good and put it as the worst album of the year. Explains why he plays bass
Around 9:50 I have to disagree. Those who say that m shadows is not a good singer just don't like certain qualities of his voice. Anybody who understands music understands that he has an incredible range. And a complete mastery of all of the different styles of singing. Initially I did not like his voice but now I can't imagine the band with anybody else singing. Some of the qualities I initially didn't like adds so much depth to his vocal tracks.
Great video dude, only thing I'd disagree with is the comment about Shadows' voice. He voice is phenomenal in my opinion, I've never heard anything like it in my life.
I think you're confused. People mostly don't like Shadows timbre/tone. Technically he is an outstanding vocalist, classically trained. Not to mention hes a baritone and can sing with rasp up till notes like G#5.
I cry like once every 10 years, this song almost made me double up for the decade
Sinto a mesma coisa!
As someone who grew up along side of their albums, and learning the background of each song, this album has literally made me cry in both Joy and emotional pain. not everyone can appreciate this album, but I can never not cry during some of there songs. the lyrics and their meaning have been something i can relate to.
You must not be a fan of Epica?
lol tons of their tunes get me in the feels , once upon a nightmare is probably one of the best imo
@@deminybsnah
Cosmic is so offensively beautiful I can’t handle it
I had this same reaction to Cosmic, man. I cried. My husband kept trying to talk to me and i finally turned to him and went "sshhh you dont talk during church!!"
Do any of you experience musical loneliness in your personal life? My life is full of friends and family but nobody who’ll enjoy LIBAD with me. Big sads
You always have us in the community!
Same here ⚰️
Same
Dude for real, everyone around me doesn't enjoy music with this depth and feeling. They all just want hooks and formulaic nonsense, I want to feel something when I hear music.
Same ! No one enjoys my music taste but i love this stuff
Say what y’all want about Shadows, he’s an incredible vocalist. He knows his voice and how to fit in the band’ style
Yep
The album isn’t something you just listen to, it’s something you experience, every song is like a different genre or a mix of genres and they pull them off so well, they touch base with elements of every album, then add a whole bunch of new shit, flip it upside down and it fucks with everyone.

And the album looks to tell a story, from start to finish, from first track to last.
If you like music it was amazing from first listen. If you are only into their old sound those are the weirdos having trouble
@@dorkknight42i was originally only into their old sound, but i love the new stuff so much now
I listened to it while reading the lyrics and it made me cry. Lol. It’s such a beautiful track.
I was so fkn hype for this album. As someone obsessed with space, The Stage was such a good album! And I loved the direction they were moving. After Nobody, I was curious to see what was next.

This is not a love song. It's about mourning and reflection. It is a masterpiece.
Cosmic, G and Game Over are perfect dude!!!! But for me Cosmic is the best song of the album and one of their bests songs ever so far
I’d have to agree. One of the most perfect displays of instrumental music ever. It combines so many genres over the course of the track it’s unbelievably impressive.
Yes all great songs, I also really love Mettel and Ordinary. But Cosmic may be there best song in over a decade.
@@dat8835the whole record is bangers man front to back. Not a song i dont like
Cosmic is THE BEST!! 😭
It’s got an F Zero vibe and I love it. I can imagine hittin the tube on Big Blue while Syn grinds the solo
I will tell y'all, Avenged Sevenfold didn't just made a music. THEY'RE MADE A MASTERPIECE!
All of Avenged Sevenfold's are intellectual in guise musicians!
Life is but a dream album are GENIUS ALBUM OF ALL THE TIME!
This song has single-handedly gotten me into this band after not connecting with them back in the early aughts. I was stunned when it was over and actually shed tears at how poignant and ecstatic the sound was.
You should also experience the song Exist from the album before, which is also a fucked up journey
Try listening to it at night while riding a bike (preferably with a quality BT speaker in the backpack's side pocket, I have a JBL Flip 6 for that). Astounding.
The stage is an album worth checking out if you haven’t already. In my own opinion it’s a lot better than a lot of the stuff they’ve put out before that.

Is he the best pure vocalist in the world? No he’s not. But is he a perfect Avenged Sevenfold frontman? Yes, yes he is.
@@MacombMetalcorePodcast For sure, he’s the perfect vocalist for that band!! No one else would do it justice!
@Nick Luzzi Fr bro, the raspiness in his voice is so fucking beautiful bro.
@@hazardgaminghg122 And the fact that he can control the amount of rasp he adds to his voice and sing as clear as day. For a Baritone the dude's range is high as fuck And his vocal technique is insane.
his voice is mesmerizing for sure...i can say that, im gay lol
They are truly the best band right now
Right now. And ever.
Seriously wish i had a friend like you that shares this much excitement about this song as i do. Youre feeling the same raw and deep emotions about everything in this song and album as i did and im so glad that other people feel the same way as i do 😢
M. Shadows is a very good singer.
He's just underrated.
This song literally got me in tears 😭
8:46 for me this is the best part of the song, the build up and the shift of atmosphere and the mood of the song when the piano came in😭
This song ant Mattel were my instant favourites. This album was definitely worth waiting for. I personally love Matt’s voice, his high notes give me goosebumps every time
Mattel is a banger.
Love the reaction man. Wish I knew people that got that hyped about A7X. Remember the night it dropped I laid back in bed and just listened to the whole thing through. Just an experience I haven’t felt from an album in years.
Feels like you're ascending
That’s really the best way to describe it
The most I've ever ascended by an A7X song honestly
I lost my uncle last year to health problems and this year I lost a friend of mine to suicide.
This song gives me closure.
This song broke me and then put me back together.
Not one song in this lifetime has EVER done that to me.
Avenged will always be my favorite band and the wait was WELL worth it.
nah i can even stop crying with this song , it’s so good, they’ve outdone themselves
Ive listened to this song around 50 times so far and even listening to it in the background of your video I still get goosebumps every single damn time. I share your emotion and I’m glad to see someone else share the same feelings that I do for this band.

Dude fucking ascended on stream
FOR REALLL
@@MacombMetalcorePodcast first time a song has made me bawl like this in a long time.
Fucking happy tears
I am certain I have never cried to a song the first time I listened to it before this song.
And I am uncertain that I ever will again.
I am confident that will love this song for the rest of my life.
I am thankful for Avenged Sevenfold.
I actually cried a few times during my first time through this album lol its an actual masterpiece
this song makes me cry every single time
it's been a long time since a modern piece of music touched in such a deep way
they truly did something special with this album
absolute legends
Lagu ini mencabik-cabik jiwa 😢😢 sunguh mahakarya yang sangat indah , We love you Avenged Sevenfold
Does anyone feel the "fiction" vibe after the solo? I listened to it and inmediatly got that feeling, It was emotional af.
Yes, i felt the revs spirit flowing through the second half of the song after the solo, and the lyrics is almost like he is telling his fans and his fam and friends that even if hes physically gone hes always there beside us through the infinite force that is the universe, made me fucking cry😢😢 A7X foREVer
ME
It also gave me Roman Sky vibes
Fiction and I won't see you tonight🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
@@thegamegenieand something from the singing Part in exist
GREATEST BAND AND THEN SOME 🔥🔥🔥 Cosmic gave me the same feeling in my chest as when I discovered Unbound by them as a kid. God damn
I'm sure the guys from the band will see your review dude
Your energy is so positive towards them and so welcoming of their risk-taking and innovation, I'd be honored in their place
You did a great job, and great choice for first song of the album to react to!
This is the best reaction video on UA-cam. I'm A7X absolute fan too and I enjoy this as much as you do or even more, I'm so glad we can relate on how amazing this song is. A7X is the BEST🤎🖤
If You've Heard Game Over Live and Nobody and We Love You... You've Still Somehow Missed the Second Track - Mattel
Mattel is probably my favorite song on the album other than Cosmic.
This is the best song A7x has ever made is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever herd I’m 46 I been following A7x since my early 30’s this album is a masterpiece.
I really like cosmic, the first time I heard my eyes filled with
tears, man
“He doesn’t need to be great” uhhh sir, you might wanna re-evaluate. It’s fine if he’s not your cup of tea but m. Shadows is classically trained bro, he’s objectively amazing as a vocalist. Also, syn is playing piano on this record
@Nick Luzzi same. I cant understand why anyone would try to shit on him like this
He’s literally one of the greatest metal singers ever. He can do it all. He conveys emotion so well
This song got me emotional as fuck. I listened to the album in full today, and now I’ve had cosmic on repeat and I’ve been teary eyed all morning. This song was one hell of an experience that I wasn’t expecting.
Last time an album blew me away like this was when I first heard the Masterpiece that is Angel Dust from FNM in 1992. That my friends, is a big compliment.
Dude. You are my spirit animal... ❤
It’s like comfortably numb, just perfect.
This was my exact reaction, to the first listen.. so emotionally overwhelming. Also, Avenged are the KINGS of visually stimulating music.💯
Did you mean to say visually... cause listening to this would be one of the few times I'd want to have synesthesia
I heard this song on Friday in the middle of my class and I was already about to break down In tears bc so much already happened to me but then I heard this song specifically and i felt comfort knowing that this song healed me emotionally
It has nearly been a year since this album dropped, i still haven't had a favorite song because all of the songs are just that good to me
This is possible the best Cosmic reaction that will ever exist!
I think shads is pry one of the best vocalists out there. The stuff he can do and does live is criminally underrated
Can't wait to get the LP for this album
I just got The Stage and it's such an experience
A7X-#Reinventing the wheel every time! Cosmic is a song that only comes along once every decade or longer. Nothing touches this song this is a masterpiece a true one of one! 🤘❤️💯
Been a fan since I was little around 2004 and I loved seeing a true diehard a7x fan react to this amazing song for the first time! 🔥🤘💯 a7x foREVer
Cosmic = Masterpiece
My new favorite song by them. Its fucking beautiful. Well done Avenged well done
Just a couple mushies and this album on low in a quiet dark room. It will take you places
The Rev is alive and well boys.
This is the legacy and vision of A Little Piece of Heaven carried to fruition.
Didn’t know they had it in them. 20+ year fan and I don’t remember them ever moving me like this.
WOW!
i cry every time i hear it
Loved watching this and somewhat re-experiencing my first listen through you, I'm right there with you with how much I love this band.
This song is my second most favorite one in this album after We Love You
(O)rdinary took me back when I was in dark place in life and how Random Access Memories got me through that period. This album does things to my soul.
A darling music makes me cry. after so far away and gunslinger
I went to the Las Vegas immersive experience and I was balling my eyes out. The look people gave me was funny but it was such a powerful experience. Still cry hearing it ❤️
Cosmic is sooooooooo BEAUTIFUL!!! 😇
Cosmic = November rain part.two 🤗🙏👏👏👏🔥😎
Matt’s singing was just 😱😱😱😱
Update: Fantano (the person with the worst music takes ever) gave the album a not good and put it as the worst album of the year. Explains why he plays bass

the recent live concert shows he literally can hit them high notes just like if not way higher than in I Won't See You Tonight pt1
I was wearing the exact same shirt when the album dropped lol
We have great taste. Cant go wrong w the classic band shirt.
13:35 I totally feel you dude, that was exactly my reaction
It was fun hoy you say "I can't wait for..." and inmediately the song "I can't wait too long" 😂
I guess that's how we all reacted
man, the wait was worth it
Your enthusiasm and joy for the music is wonderful and inspiring. You’re a true fan bro, you’re the kind of fan that these bands make music for. 🤘🔥🔥🤘😎
I love this song ,"Cosmic" is a beautiful song
This is the best take of all time!! Great vid man, lol
If y’all cry to this song… Y’all should listen to Wintersun’s song called Time. You’re welcome
Same vibe dude, A7X 🤘🏻🎸♥️
Your energy and loving A7X, I subscribed
Masterpiece From Libad A7X ✨
My honest reaction i swear
You just experienced some prog rock/metal. It's a beautiful song!
Thats not prog, more like shitty Avantgarde
M. Shadows is one of the best singers of his generation
HE'S THE BEST SINGER and he demonstrates every fuc**ng time to the fuc**ng world 😂
just an amazing experience
They always give us something new.
Hey man screaming can be art 👀
The part where someone says Good Bye
Cosmic made me feel I was rediscovering God inside music. Musical genius and sounded like it was inspired by God.
Like ur reaction, I'm exited see u reaction, I'm happy see u happy, I'm tear see u tear 🤘
When that piano kicks in 👌
Okay hold up... M. Shadows IS GREAT!!!!.. okay proceed.
5:24 "let's just get right into it" 😂😂
Crazy to think they said they were done as a band before coming up with this album
My go to jam on the way to work🤘🏽🤘🏽
idk about greatest band ever (respecting your opinion of course) but my favorite band thats for sure.
the beginning part of this song needs to be in the next opening of the next james bond movie.....
Great video dude, only thing I'd disagree with is the comment about Shadows' voice. He voice is phenomenal in my opinion, I've never heard anything like it in my life.
Love it love it love it. This album made me feel like I saw a story…with my ears
It is such a beautiful song.
Cosmic would be fitted perfekt in the stage
I love love love this album. Maybe not G, O and D but all the others are epic. Mattel and Beautiful Morning are my favourites.
Yea I agree the last 4 tracks didn’t quite do it for me but the rest is perfect
Good review my friend cheers from chile ❤
Cosmic very emotional i did cry
I think you're confused. People mostly don't like Shadows timbre/tone. Technically he is an outstanding vocalist, classically trained. Not to mention hes a baritone and can sing with rasp up till notes like G#5.
