#AvengedSevenfold #WeLoveYou #LifeIsButADream
I have never heard anything like this before in a band. This was very unique!!! This song gave me the freaking chills and goosebumps!!!
Love it. 🤩
It kinda feels like Prog Industrial Metal, it's freaking weird but kinda cool lol.
You're missing out on some thrash prog! Check out bands like Psychotic Waltz, Watchtower, Sieges Even, and Atheist when you have the time. And although it's instrumental, Spastic Ink is pretty crazy too
@@Vdrum1010 I have never heard any of those bands before, so I’m definitely gonna go check these bands out.
@@JaMbizard I’ve heard of mr bungle but never got Into them. But never heard of fantomas so I’m going to check that out.
I love how they are releasing anticommercial and mature avant-gardy songs, this is the A7X I'm hyped for.
*cough* Architects *cough* Parkway Drive
@@imoanadzlol. Those bands don't have 5% of this creativity 😂
It legit sounds like they took elements from their entire discography and put a prog spin on it. I love it
Dude I was thinking the same thing, it's so good. I love this song. I didn't care alot for the beginning of the song but this song is so good
No it doesn't at all dude lol.. Like factually not an opinion it's nothing like they're past music. Mainly because the stuff they did before was actually music. Unlike whatever tf this is
@@goblin3810 that’s your opinion man 👍🏻
@@goblin3810 The first solo was completely reminiscent of "I Won't See You Tonight Pt2" from the Waking the Fallen album. The whole middle section with screams is also inspired from their first two releases .The ending reminded me of songs like "M.I.A" or "Sidewinder", both from City of Evil. I'd say this song is definitely inspired from all their previous works!
@@mortythemort Absolutely correct
This shit is pure chaos and I’m all for it, I greatly respect that they’re one of the biggest metal bands in the world yet they’re making completely off the walls shit with pretty much no commercial appeal, dudes are just making the music they want to make and don’t give a shit about sales or the music being divisive etc.
Can’t wait to hear whatever other crazy shit is on here, supposedly some of the stuff on the 2nd half of the album is even more experimental and off the walls than either of these 2 singles.
yeah I was scrolling through the subreddit and they had the listening parties at a place in Vegas and apparently one of the songs is a full blown club banger style thing- which in all honesty I would’ve never expected, but I’m excited for lmao
@@dk0139 I saw someone on that actually compare it to instant crush by daft punk, I’m all for it tho because I love that song and daft punk. Saw another compare it to a strokes song which is funny because Julian Casablancas their frontman is the one who sang on instant crush. I assume that gotta be the same song that someone was talking about when they mentioned a club banger. I’m onboard for whatever A7X does tho, it’s cool just seeing them do new shit every album and getting more and more extreme with the weirdness
"Avenged Sevenfold didn't write tunes that every one liked. They left that to the Bee Gees."
May not be everybody’s cup of tea as I’m seeing on social media, but I love the approach they’re taking. As a big Avenged Sevenfold fan, they’re my favorite band and I think expanding out is something that the heavy rock/metal culture needs and so far I’m absolutely digging this album.
Si, bueno una cosa es expandirse en probar cosas nuevas y otra es hacer un desastre de canción.
@@matiasjd1
Depende de qué tipo de metal escuches. Si escuchas puro heavy metal antiguo y sin cambios (o cualquier subgénero de metal que no haya tenido mucho cambio desde su surgimiento), entonces esto no te gustará nada y te parecerá un caos. Si escuchas metal progresivo le encontrarás sentido al "caos" de la canción. Es cuestión de perspectiva
@@ernestorodriguez5117 tremenda respuesta!! Y si, es así. De hecho me gusto como venía evolucionando esta banda, como por ejemplo en el disco anterior, pero este tema en particular no me termina de convencer todavía y no logro entrar en el tema, será cuestión de seguir escuchándolo a ver que pasa.. ojala todo el disco nuevo sea una locura! Y no repetitivo en su temas.. ya hacia falta nuevo material de esta banda.. que de hecho es mi banda favorita
@@matiasjd1 Están entrando en un terreno más próximo al progresivo y al metal vanguardista, es poco tradicional, relativamente caótico, es complejo, eso lo hace bello. Dale algunas oportunidades más, quizás encuentres un gusto en el género.
I'm really digging the message so far. We have some really close-minded people in the music community though.
I enjoyed Nobody. It wasn't what I was expecting first time but after a few listens it grew on me as it's own thing. Both of these tracks have a kind of similar production that gives both tracks a sense of shared identity even if they are polar opposites in structure.
Edit: this song makes a lot more sense on a second listen. It kinda sounds like a set of TV commercials and that seems to fit in the lyrical ideas that seem to be somewhat about greed and corporate strategy/capitalism/consumerism ("We love you" obviously referring to the idea of appealing to consumers). It all builds (see what I did there?!) up to the final chorus before everything just... chills. The ending is like a deep breath and appreciation of something more natural or simple (the production suggests this too, with the left in string noises from the guitar slide). Very arty song.
The song is so wild and bizarre it's really good A7X taking that proggy feel one step further
It kinda feels like Prog Industrial Metal, it's freaking weird but kinda cool lol.
@Big Homie Steve The Metal Head I'm right there with you im pretty hyped for this new album and what crazy it's gonna bring
Track 3: Nobody -> Track 4: We Love You
Life is But a Dream is going to be quite a trip. The fun part about all of this is just being a music fan and experiencing new things. It's why I love stuff like Sleep Token and Avenged Sevenfold. We Love You definitely took a couple of listens but its such a cool journey. High caliber musicians doing "crazy" and different things is a huge bonus.
I loved Nobody! What?! I didn't know people disliked it
Me too!
I didn't like it at first but it grew on me lol
I dont like nobody song by a7x but I'm damn sure its gonna grow on me after some more listen
People don't like different stuff. They want nightmare, bat country, and unholy confessions over and over again.
@@ryansheesley3703 yeah and the thing is I came into it a younger kid with all they’re great albums already released so I don’t stick to one sound from a record I consider everything they make to be they’re sound and it’s amazing to have that perspective
I liked Nobody after listening to it a few times. We Love You was a song that you must listen to several times in a row. There’s so much I love about it that comes out once you listen to it a few times. I really can't wait for the rest of the songs on the new album
True A7X fans know they love to push the limits of music, this album is going to be monstrous
I honestly love how out there these last couple of songs have been. Aspects of heavier here and there but mixed in with a really sweet prog metal sound. Can't wait for the next release!
They dug into their Mr Bungle roots for this, man. I think how much CoE fans will like it will depend on what parts of that album they liked😂
It's almost Avenged Sevenfold doing their version of Mr. Bungle.
Amazing piece of music. The Mr.Bungle vibes are all over it. That ending was sublime 🎧🙏
You are absolutely right !
I like the audacity of the song. Cant wait for the rest of the album. Its gonna be the a piece of art
Super excited for the album. Been a huge fan of Avenged Sevenfold since I first heard City of Evil and really loving this more experimental version of the band
This song goes hard. It's reinventing this genre
This tune is fantastic! I'm a fan since Waking The Fallen, and really can't wait for this new album to release. I've already pre-ordered it. 🤘
This mr bungle era Avenged Sevenfold is the best. I hope they continue into this direction.
I listened to this song all day I can’t wait for more avenged sevenfold been my favorite band since I was 14, this song is so unique brings all these elements and being a fan for a while and hearing all there songs you have to expect them to make unique songs like this they always have
I seen them live a couple days ago and this song slaps live along with nobody. They sound so good live and it was only their second show back.
Never been so excited for an album drop. Nobody and We Love You gave me chills, and honesty, i teared up with the outro solo in Nobody. Just beautiful.
It actually sounds fantastic live 🤘
This song is incredible, I like it a lot better than Nobody. Not that I don't like Nobody it just gets a bit monotonous to me until the solo which is epic
I love that observation, I didn’t even think about it being a metaphor for their own career; and also an introspective on society I guess.
I’m also really enjoying this direction, from the skeleton on some type of path from his mortal shell walking off in nobody, to this wild vr journey about technological evolution, back to nothing! In we love you.
It is art, and it’s so awesome it’s from Avenged Sevenfold.
So, NEW RELEASES: New Acacia Strain double album (both really good), New DARKNET single (really good), New A7X (weird and good), New Veil of Maya (not my thing but pretty solid), New Cattle Decapitation (so Emotionally charged and solid record), New Asking Alexandria (meh), New TAA (pretty decent not as heavy as I expected), New Soulkeeper (Craziest comeback album of 2023 it melts your brain), New Left to Suffer (Really chonky and groovy), new DAFT PUNK b sides of RAM, today was fucking stacked.
I am in love with this new one and also like Nobody a lot! This album will be INSANEEEEE
This album may end up being there best and I've been a fan since 2001 , this is pure musicianship
I love this song so fucking much
This song is still very weird to me (and I don't mean that in a bad way) and very intriguing, even after listening to it multiple times now, but it's so different to anything I've ever heard personally and I just can't get enough of it
Was not expecting sounding the seventh trumpet Matt to come out!
Sounds like a7x 🤝 pink Floyd, with a sprinkle of Waking the Fallen vibes. I dig it
Thank you!! 💙💙💙
Saw them live with Kim Dracula and FIR. This song was INCREDIBLE live.
8:27 - 9:39 True. I’m digging this song, so far.
Been waiting and refreshing for this reaction!! Did not disappoint
Well said brother - as a huge fan of the old-sounding A7X I am trying to challenge my ears and absorb what this is, and after many many listens I am starting to get it
This is like the stage 2.0 as far as themes go. When the chaotic solo hits we're in a nuclear winter
7:11 I fucking love this idea. Nobody on youtube ever thought about that. Cool analysis.
The live is out! I seen it yesterday and M. Shadow’s voice sounds amazing. It’s a recording from their Las Vegas show
Perfect resume of the whole song: „This makes no sense to me, but its cool“
I fkn love this song
I love the older A7X albums but I love when bands go way out of their comfort zone to do something as experimental as this new album went. I absolutely love their evolution. Listen to the album as a whole it’s really good.
This is way better than the last song they put out, I dig the Mr. Bungle influence to especially on the singing parts with the synth
this is so good, i love how they keep changing, not doing the same stuff over and over. i would also love to hear more screaming from Matt on this record :D A7X foREVer :D
City of Evil remains my favorite album. But the Stage and this album, and their whole prog turn, is their best material since then. They've been laying the seeds for prog since early on, so I'm excited for them to dive all the way in.
I was unsure about Nobody on first listen, but after 2 or 3 I started to notice the details and love it. I was so excited to see another song drop, and with a stunning video. I love this, and the new direction they are going. When Hail to the King came out I was like "Oh, this is a bit different" Then The stage was even more so, now I love that each album has such a different feel and story.
The guitar 🎸 was cry 😢 at the end and I was crying laughing 😂 at you, thank you 🙏 I really enjoyed your reaction n I subscribe n LIKED 👍🏼. Thx again I have watched like 10+ reactions from not like it to loving 🥰 it and I feel sorry for those who don’t hear 👂 it… I 100% love ❤️ it and have listen 🎧 to “We love you” 30+ times since Monday and M Shadows
Voice, the drum 🪘 lines off beat, bass sick as ever and the solo n STP riff at the end OMG awesomeness like
All A7X for my ears 👂 love it!!! And NOBODY so sick !!!
I'm really late, but, I loved the song Nobody! I had to really sit and listen to it and take in everything and I fell in love!! They could make anything work! Love your reactions!!
im totally with you dude i love that these songs are not the same old song were used too there so interesting it so nice to hear something different.
I can't seem to get this song out of my head.
This is the best thing I’ve heard in a long time. It’s like riding a roller coaster while someone is barfing in front of you. Your not comfortable with it but your fucking excited about it. Nice avenged.
This fucking comment 😂😂😂 love it.
I loved Nobody right off the bat, and this one is so wild and fucking cool. Im so hype for the new record
Well said my friend. I love this direction for the band. They sound musically free and I'm all here for it!
This song reminded me of some of Dir En Grey's older stuff, which is weird because I never thought I'd be comparing an A7X song to Dir En Grey lol
Dir En Grey! ❤
Agreed 100% great perspective man..happily a new subscriber 😊
Song wise - im not a huge fan of some sections, the intro and the "build" parts. But i get it. To me, the meaning is that large cooperation's all want to spend and be bigger, and they will do anything they can to get there, but at the end of the day, they say they do it for us that "we love you". But when M shadows says.. build, bill, bill, bill.... bill nye the science guy comes to mind.
So far all of their new songs have been the type that you need to listen to them 2-3 times before they catch on, at least for me.
Also, the boat at the end made me think of GoW immediately too
A7X will always be my favorite band and this song excites me especially after 7 long music less years from my boys. 🤘🏼❤️🤘🏼❤️ Love all your reactions broseph.
Avenged in this era where fans need to leave nostalgia behind. I think if you accept the fact that they’re in this experimental, proggy and almost thrashy stage they’ll be able to enjoy it to its fullest potential, and it’s straight up just fantastic music. The production is so much better than people are giving it credit for. These boys know what they’re doing.
Not my favorite song but I really respect the creativity and the art, and I do ultimately like it. These guys are thinking outside the box and trying to bring new things to the fans and the genre.
I don't see how this isn't a major hit. It's amazing.
A7X is one of my favorite bands and this is shaping up to be by far their most experimental album. On first listen I for sure don’t love this as much as nobody, but I do like it. Seems like theme wise it’s giving the stage part 2? Like last album we created the technology of our demise (paradigm, sunny disposition, creating god, simulation, etc..) and this album is the the result of that technology taking over and the aftermath of it all! Can’t wait to hear the rest of the album next month from start of finish and hear the whole story being told!!
This certainly isn't the first time Avenged Sevenfold has done slide guitar (commonly associated with blues music, think Elmore James). They did slide guitar on Tonight the World Dies from Nightmare, and they utilized it a bit on Gunslinger from their self-titled album.
Overall, it's probably not the best track for working out - but it is definitely very progressive. It's certainly not the first time Avenged Sevenfold went progressive, but it might be the first time they went way out.
I'm definitely looking forward to Avenged Sevenfold's new album!! \m/ \m/
The part before the solo sounded like sounding the seventh trumpet
I am thoroughly enjoying the newest stuff by these guys, looking forward to the album.
Glad you appreciated it since so many are trashing it. Great point thay if I want simple accessible head banging music listen to their earlier stuff
This wasnt a huge hit for me first time but it quickly grew on me deffo see the psychedelic influences
your little jokes and quips were pretty good haha
The Bungle Vibes are strong in this one, the Gypsy Jazz also shines in this too
Sounds like Mr. Bungle and I am INTO IT
I absolutely loved Nobody. This one is insane as well. Completely different than ANYTHING they've ever done before.
Loved this track stoked for the album
I keep telling people avenged sevenfold has always been different every single album. They don’t want to be stuck in the same genre for 20 years straight. If they keep making music that the fans want them to produce, you’re also making the artists sad for not having freedom control over their own work.
The fans might be happy because they got what they want, but for the artist themselves, it’s not what they want to do. 🌏
i love this opinion, it really is what you say and i love the fact that people decide to understand and vibe but not hate, so happy
I love this stuff f ing amazing seriously some of my favorite music is early 200s linkin park a with the crazy sounds and crazy riffs so this is right up my alley
dude i love nobody as well and this one is growing on me. its definitely artistic so its gonna polarize but damn its good i just love seeing artists get creative
The trippy prog parts, like what the song starts with, remind me of Sonic Adventure 2 music, like the themes from Shadow's levels with the emo vocals kind of muddled in the background
This is phenomenal!!!!
The message behind it was beautifully done!!!
I love Nobody, I love We Love You.
I hate to be the fan that “loves everything the band does” but I really find nothing wrong with them!
Don't stay up to date on a7x much these days and would have payed no attention if it was just the same old stuff. Loved this!
I don't think people realize that we are getting a BMTH album and and A7X album in the same year.
I love how unorthodox this album is.
I listen to this song at the gym 🥲😅
Me and my coworker 100% agree with the thumbnail. It's weird... but cool
I've never been so happy to be alive.
I love this band
I think Avenged is going on the path of Opeth when they turned Prog. I love it and think you are totally right about it \,,/
I for one am here for the A7X prog arc
It took me a lot of listens to come around to Nobody, this immediately blew my fucking mind so much I needed to decompress lmao
The first listen for me nearly killed my eardrums, but now, I think I understand the the appeal a little bit more.
This song is so fucking sick. I loved it the first time I heard it and can't stop listening
they actually did this song live and it slaps
I would be interesting if you could react to the second album The Acacia Strain released, where there is only three songs, but they are all 10+ minutes long. I always love your prog take, as it's a contrast to Nik Nocturnal getting bored if a song is longer than 3 minutes.
1000% agree.
Everyone song on this upcoming album is gonna take MANY listens to to understand it and enjoy it. I love that about it.
Every album they do is completely unlike any other album. And I've loved everything. This is one of the best songs they've ever made. Only thing is the lyrics don't seem as profound as some of their other stuff. But maybe there's something I'm missing.
I’ll have you know sir I DID have this on at the gym and I burned 100 more calories in the same distance I normally run! 😂😂
This is way different to what everyone else is doing, even more than what Falling in Reverse and BMTH is doing, props to A7X for changing things up.
The more I hear it, the more I like it!!
I agree on all you said..
