#AvengedSevenfold #TheStage #A7X
I'm for sure sleeping on the new stuff so what's another newer track that's worth checking out?
U should check out to demons or St James from a7x
Exist or Higher for sure. Higher is probably my favorite song off the album
Higher and Fermi Paradox, or Roman Sky for something more epic and soft. They're three amazing tracks.
Mad hatter is a sick song they released for Call of Duty Black Ops 4 and re-released on Black Reign, but you should also react to Dancing Dead off of the Diamonds In The Rough remaster or Not Ready to Die (another song on Black Reign, originally released for Black Ops 1)
Higher, Angels, Exist and Fermi Paradox from the same album
The drummer is brooks wackerman
fitting last name
Synster Gates is one of the greatest ever to play the guitar
He's always been great. Like idc how much people hate on the band (I really like them personally) you can't deny Syn's talent
@@jbasti227 And he just keeps getting better every single album, im anxiously waiting to see what they release next. You can hear the progress hes made as you listen through the albums, like, i dont know how to explain it but you can tell that he just keeps improving, his playing is among the most clean I've ever heard, and he can play basically anything, you can tell that hes dedicated to his craft and puts in the work.
Ab so fucking lutely.
@@tplouffe9226so? What do you think now that they released a new album ? Is what you said still accurate ?
@@zark1419 Yeah? The new album is good, it's just different, which I like. his talent in that album is still undeniable
Brooks Wackerman really gave this band the drummer they needed since the rev passed away same with trivium, both bands went through some lows since the departure of travis on trivium and rev's death for a7x but Alex and brooks really pushed this bands to the top of the metal world tbh. As far as a recomendation mine would be to check out exist, sunny disposition and god damm
Avenged sevenfold - roman sky
Avenged sevenfold - exist
Both of those for sure! Roman Sky blew me away when I realized they were talking about Giordano Bruno. I think they watched the new Cosmos series and it spoke to them (the Neil DeGrasse Tyson monologue at the end of Exist is pulled straight from that, even). Can't say I blame them. I still go back and watch it every so often.
If you want more and odd proggy composition, and this has gotten recommended a ton and will continue to be, EXIST.
Yes absolutely!
I second this 👌
Their new drummer is Brooks Wackerman (ex-Bad Religion, Suicidal Tendencies, and more)
drummer is brooks wackerman, played for bad religion for 15 years and toured with blink-182
Holy shit Bad Religion? Didn't know their drummer was this good lol
METALBIRB brooks wackerman was a fucking beast in BR
Brooks started out in a band called bad 4 good. With the red headed kid from the t.v. Show different strokes.
I saw Bad Religion as one of my first bands ever (I believe the bill was Rise Against, Bad Religion, Against Me!, and Four Year Strong) and didn’t remember the drumming being that good, but Brooks on this record is fucking insane. One of the best drummers i’ve ever seen. Great replacement for The Rev.
He also played for Tenacious D, Suicidal Tendencies (when he was fourteen)
Avenged Sevenfold :
1. Paradigm
2. Lost it all
3. Coming home
4. The Wicked End
5. Crossroads
saiful zamroni giving lost it all and the wicked end sum love
ethan jackson the wicked end is so underrated.
if you want somethin even more proggy "Exist" off this album is a masterpiece with lots of unpredictable twists and amazing instrumentals!!
You should check out Save Me from the nightmare album. That song is fire🔥
Most of this album is very proggy but has classic A7x riffage/leads built into it. This is by far my favorite album since city of evil, in between I could care less about that material. I love that they went in to progressive/classic rock-metal direction. It fits them very well and it shows that they are so much more than just some bro metal band, which they clearly were starting to box themselves into. They are pushing boundaries and that's what it's all about when you're an artist.
I suggest checking out Sunny Disposition off this album, it very out of the ordinary and I just love the lyrical content of the song. Would love to see you check out enterprise earth's cover of 'Now you've got something to die for' too.
Dude you sold me! Haven’t liked anything too much since City Of Evil and I’m a sucker for classic rock so your comment zeroed in on my feelings
METALBIRB classic rock is so good dude! Best pandora station I’ve listened to is “classic rock BBQ radio.” So good haha.
@@METALBIRB I would recommend Exist off this record too. It is prog metal at it's finest, and has layers upon layers of depth of the meaning of the song. Literally even the song structure has a role in the total meaning of the song
aint no way you couldnt care less for nightmare lmao its their second best album
What I absolutely love about this whole album is the perfect balance the band has found, especially Synyster Gates. There's SO MUCH class in his playing here (not that he wasn't amazing before that), he has such a classic feel in his solos, yet always takes it many steps further! Years after its release, I'm extremely proud of a7x for this album!
I think he’s just really rekindled his passion for learning different techniques and styles of playing and has implemented it really well into this album. I love his playing, always feels unique and I love when I can actually feel something from a guitar solo.
These intros are class🤣
I think you would really appreciate Avenged Sevenfold - Paradigm from the The Stage album. Great all around song. Drums and guitar really take over.
I suggest maybe checking out Exist from the same album or Planets from 'Hail To The King' both are some intense songs to listen to
Oh I definitely agree on these two especially Planets.
The Wicked End is probably your thing. Very intense and very proggy.
Avenged sevenfold- sunny disposition
Another one of my favs of this album that everyone sleeps on 🤷🏻♂️ guess they’re missing out
people listen or react to mainstream shit: slipknot soad, etc
Love Sunny Disposition
Intense, fast, and aggressive? The song God Damn from this album is all 3 of those, to a T
u want more? the full album is a masterpiece.. i thought for more than 10 years avenged was a teenager band with few good songs. then they came with this diamond and changed my mind
i think im the only one who didnt like this album, only a few musics :(
Bro, loving the added comedy and editing you're doing. Just thought I'd let you know we appreciate you 🤘
God Damn is a good example of their newer heavier tracks, so it would be a good choice, but also if you want to check out more of their chill stuff from the last album, Roman Sky is the track to go for
“Creating God” is another guitar masterpiece as well!!
Please react to
Avenged Sevenfold - Afterlife
Avenged Sevenfold - Strength Of The World
Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare
I think he already knows them 😂
I feel like fermi paradox is really underrated, it’s really fast and aggressive on some parts but really slow on others. Definitely one of my favorite songs from this album
Yes
Plus the solo is pure SOVL
Brooks wackerman is the drummer and hes friggin awesome
Heart Of Jordan- Echoes Still Remain 🤘
Throwback As I Lay Dying-Within Destruction!
This has become my favorite A7X song over the last few years. It has a little bit of everything. I can never get enough of this song. Try God Damn off the same album.
Check out Save Me from the Nightmare album. 11 minutes of pure skill, emotion and epicness
Enjoyed the hell out of this, MetalBirb, and I ended up being the 22,222 view! Good shit, keep it up!
Let’s all agree that this part right here - 5:54 is so beautiful!! Syn is a God on that guitar! 😍
Great reaction!! Love this song, especially the ending 🤩
Totally agree
Check out their lbc live if you haven't great live band.. My personal favorite from them is Save Me from nightmare album 11 minutes song goodness.
The Stage is for sure their best since City of Evil
White album tho
This Means War is my absolute favorite Avenged song. They're the reason I love all things heavy. 🖤
If you want long listen to “Exist” it’s almost 16 minutes long!
Dude - Exist will blow you away
You want something longer? Exist is the one to go, it's 15 minutes long!
Pff, dont u know dream theater?
@@menjoSIM I was just thinking along the lines of avenged sevenfold. Dream theater is a hell of a lot longer with 20 minute songs
For something heavier I'll recommend Shepherd of Fire, Planets, and Paradigm 🤘
Happy you did this. I gave up on A7X with Hail to the King, so happy I gave this album a chance a while back. It is good. It is very good.
Avenged Sevenfold - Fiction
Avenged sevenfold were one of my first favourite bands and when this album came out I was very disappointed but it grew on me a lot, such a banger! Loved that intro as well by the way 😅
Great reaction! I feel there are some tracks off of Nightmare that you would really like. Check out Danger Line, Buried Alive, and Natural Born Killer. Coincidentally those three are consecutive songs on the album. I’m enjoying the content and considering subscribing to the channel. Keep up the great work!
6:13-6:16 that climb syn does is so filthy 🤘
Like the hair!
Gotta check out The Ocean man 'Cambrian II: Eternal Recurrence' they got a new album coming right round the corner, amazing stuff
Great reaction.
Angels is my favorite track on this album totally underrated in my opinion!!
Listen to God Damn. It's aggressive and thrashy but at the same time really unpredictable. there's so many genres in this album that you have to listen to the songs 2-3 times to really "get" what they were going for. I myself didn't like the album when i first listened to it but it grew on me so much after listening to it a couple of times. It's probably one of my favorites from their catalog but i can admit that it's their best "musical" album to date.
I know you are a fan of City of Evil, so I was surprised to hear you say that you never felt they had epic pieces. Strength of the World is a Western cowboy movie in a song and that's on COE. Maybe you missed it, so you definitely gotta go back and check it out.
For fast and aggressive from new A7x though, you gotta go with God Damn. It's only like 3 minutes or so, but man... it hits. lol
If you want hard and fast listen to God Hates Us or Blinded in Chains, although the 15min Exist is HEAVY... at first. However, I recommend you hear their hits from previous records.
City of Evil is worth a complete listen if you haven't heard it all. Lyrically and technically it is impressive on every level, but if I had to narrow it down, I'd say Beast and the Harlot, Blinded in Chains, Bat Country, Sidewinder, Betrayed, MIA.
Their white album has Afterlife, Almost Easy, Brompton Cocktail, and definitely do A Little Piece of Heaven with metalbabe when you can. It's a pretty unique track.
Next is Nightmare the last record the Rev wrote in. He passed away during the writing process so they dedicate some some songs to him. (title track), Buried Alive, So Far Away, Fiction (suicide note), Save Me.
Then, do yourself a favor and skip Hail to the King. The album itself is not bad, but not worthy of reacting/reviewing. This album is what happens when Avenged Sevenfold goes into a depression.
The gems of this album (The Stage) are the title track, Fermi Paradox, and Exist. The other tracks are awesome (lyrically as well!) but they definitely are a strange turn they took.
A7X's new drummer is Brooks Wackerman. He played for Bad Religion, Suicidal Tendoncies, Infectious grooves, Tenacious D, The Vandals & many more
I love this song!
HELL YEAH BRO!!
Not ready to die is a MUST
Gates can sweep all he wants because he's actually good at it and knows how to use it musically unlike most guitarists when it became trendy
gunna need to listen to god damn from this album
Recommend watching the video too, it really speaks to you on top of the incredible music
Roman sky live in the Grammy museum. Also, they play some other songs all acoustic live like Hail To The King. It's awesome
I think this is one of their best albums in whole. Definitely an evolution of past music. Funny u mentioned the stage extended album has a "Wish you were here" Pink Floyd cover
The song paradigm off the stage is probably the "heaviest" song other than Exist which is heavier but in my opinion their magnum opus and you should definitely check that out.
Haven't listened to these guys in years. Sounds like metal from the 80s. Not my style but I can respect it.
Sunny Disposition or Creating God is pretty good. Paradigm as well.
What took so long!?!???
sunny disposition next??
You gotta either do God Damn which is a throwback to their older sound - it's kinda thrashy too. Or check out Exist which is their epic instrumental about the timeline of the universe and holy sh*t it's a trip to take
BURIED ALIVE
As far as the theatric element goes, there were a couple tracks that come to mind from City of Evil, The Wicked End and Strength of the World.
ALSO, is your name really Jimmy?? Lol. Been wondering since I found your channel what the hell your name is lol.
Sidewinder off of city of evil is a pretty great track
Everyone keeps saying it but ima say it anyway, Exist by these guys is another sick proggy song
FINALLY
Avenged sevenfold - Hail To The King
You should check out their song God Damn from their newest album. Its probably the heaviest track off the album. Their most recent song they wrote for Black ops 4 called Mad Hatter is pretty awesome too
Brooks Wackerman is the drummer on this album and I think he fits perfectly. You can also clearly hear some of those punk influences cuz he was the drummer for I think Bad Religion for YEARS which is cool as well.
Also, check out Nightmare definitely if you don't know that song/album. Was right after The Rev died and some of the songs still feature him in some aspect, but that song is definitely a fucking banger in a lot of ways if you don't know it already.
you need to react to their song "lost" is a underrated masterpiece
Bro make reaction videos for each song on the album!
You've got to listen to 'Feast' - Malcontent. Its from their new album that dropped today and it is hella good
Check out God Damn from The Stage. Thats a song that starts off quick and to the point
Uf chills
I wont see you tonight pt 1 and 2 for sure
Higher is a fantastic track with one of Synyster Gates' most amazing solos ever, and is definitely worth a listen!
This song is fantastic
Try Buried Alive from Nightmare or God Damn from The Stage for the ease into factor and then you can check out Exist which is a terrific track. My recommendation anyway. Cheers, and great job my dude
Avenged Sevenfold’s homer fan base is coming out in force to this video haha.
The Stage is far and away their best song and album. Not every song is good,but this album has the greatest amount of stellar songs on it and the best musicianship aside from the Nightmare album that had Mike Portnoy on the drums. The drumming went to places that it didn’t go and wasn’t capable of going before. The guitar work is also amazing and has a ton of feel. I just think this album is great and the title track is incredible.
I get what you’re saying about the song feeling like 5 minutes and wanting more,but the song feeling like 5 minutes is a good thing in my mind. I think it says a lot about the quality of a song (depending on the genre’s context) whether the song feels shorter or longer than the actual time length it is.
The whole album is insane. Exist is crazy tho and time stamps behind it. Also I think brooks is the best fit as a drummer since the rev.
Fermi paradox is the shit..... Black metal riffage and the best solo of Gates's career.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you fell off at city of evil I would recommend God Hates Us off of nightmare its probably their heaviest song since waking the fallen. The band also released a bonus song off of waking the fallen in 2013 i believe
Buried alive is a must listen from them
Sunny Disposition by A7X is an interesting one
This is a very good album from them. Totally different direction but they nail it
should've watched the music video
Have you heard Melatonin - Sleep Waker?
Check out Save Me!
Drummer is Brooks Wackerman from Tenacious D, don’t know if he’s still the D’s drummer but he’s damn good
For me, I think The Stage was a HUGE leap from all of their previous records in the sense of them pushing their own boundaries. They changed their sound and waayy amped up their abilities in musicianship. SO some songs for in between this and City of Evil I would recommend A Little Piece of Heaven and Nightmare
If I'm not mistaken, you stopped listening after City of Evil (2005). So there's 4 albums full of songs that you could listen to. Avenged Sevenfold (2007), Nightmare (2010), Hail to the King (2013) and The Stage (2016). Would be cool if you started with something from the self titled album, like Gunslinger or Afterlife.
Check out Emmure - Thunder Mouth! Sick song!
Not sure if you checked out. Nightmare? Buried Alive is an all time great. Goddamn and Sunny Disposition are off the last album
Do you want prog? React to digital veil by the human abstract (or really any of their songs) imo theyre at least in the top 3 of best prog bands
Check out Exist if you want feel and prog, then God Damn for something heavier with awesome riffs 🤘🏻
God Hates Us from the Nightmare album is one of their heaviest songs from the newer stuff
Brooks is the BEST replacement a7x could have ever ask for, he sounds just the rev!… actually I take that back- Jimmy will never be topped 🙏🙏
