Isaac Rumley Then ignore the lyrics and listen to the badass riffs. I personally believe it's a good song. I hate it when religion has to affect people in the slightest. Even if they have lyrics that like, I don't care, it sounds really good.
Illgetbacktothat because every metal band seems to have a similar name ......slayer - good hates us all (it's called disciple but most people know it as ghua) avenged - God hates us, so on and so forth
My favorite A7X riffs to play that weren't on this list are Beast and the Harlot, Chapter Four, Bat Country, Planets, Shepherd of Fire, Hail to the King, This Means War, and The Stage.
@@harryclark8274 stage, bat country and especially planets and hail to the king are one of the easiest open D boring riffs theyve made. They are very very easy to play and come up with. Just generic and boring riffs that sound good tbh and they dont deserve top 10 or even 20.
@@longinuscyclone213 its all played on one string (b) until the solo section...rhythm is just barring 2 4 and 5 over and over again. A monkey could make the song, but its still an Epic song
@@herzausstahl3215 well so what they all are really good songs and they are one of the songs that everyone who listens to avenged sevenfold will know and atleast love. the songs arent made to be perfect its made to make us happy and why not bring money to the creators
Haters ain't got nothing on Syn's technical skill. He is capable of a ton more than just metal riffs, and his dad and him and have made a free online school to teach guitar which in my opinion deserves a little respect from the music community.
@@swarmer5 I think you're right, it's not hard, but the rhythm and technique to it is sure complex and hard to write and therefore difficult to tab out, that's why it's really hard in my opinion to play the thing "perfectly" but who cares
My top 10 song’s riffs; 10 - Lips of deceit 9- The Wicked End 8- Save me 7- Reminissions 6- M.I.A 5- Second Heartbeat 4- The Stage 3- Requiem 2- Unholy Confessions 1- Afterlife
I love A7X, but, some people don't take the time to appreciate all of the song, they focus mainly on the solos or the vocals, they forget to appreciate how kick ass the riffs are, how amazing the drums are and how it all blends together seamlessly.
Long Live the Rev!!!! A7X fan for life they made my teenage years awesome and I’m 24 years old now still jamming All A7X classics cruising down snowy detroit MI
The like/dislike ratio truly shows that while you may not have got everyone's favourites on the list, you did a damn good job of playing them, and that's what really matters. Well done, sir.
Easily the modern metal band with the largest collection of memorable riffs. So, in some kind of way, like them or not, they are the "next Metallica" U should've made it into a top 20 or something tho, so many great riffs missing (Eternal Rest, Lost, IWSYT1, Beast and the Harlot, Chapter Four, Roman Sky, Natural Born Killer, etc)
As someone who likes A7X, but isn't a Rabid fan ( had a chance to go see them, chose Lamb of God instead) I was a little dissapointed not to see Buried alive, Sidewinder, Beast and the Harlot, Requiem or Hail to the King.
Triggered Snowflake Tried it and it works quite well! I dont usually turn off my mids , but i leave it rather low, like at about 4!! But now i cranked it up to 6. However, do u think i should lower the gain? It is currently at about 7 but with the high bass, treble, and mids, somehow it sounds a little muddy (maybe my amp just sucks??)
Unholy Confessions is awesome with the harmonies....maybe not one of their “album” songs, but you gotta give some love to “Not Ready to Die” the riffs and that song as a whole are on another level 🤘
10. Nightmare 9. God Damn 8. Beast and the Harlot 7. Second Heartbeat 6. God Hates Us 5. Natural Born Killer 4. Scream 3. Welcome to the Family 2. Afterlife 1. Critical Acclaim

I actually think you nailed the riff selection here. Some of their non singles go unnoticed.
Taylor Williams what about 4 am, that riff is amazing
Those are their best songs other than nightmare, Bat country and the stage.
girl I know is so good
Cause they're not as good or catchy as their singles.

I'm a simple man, i see A7X i smash that fucking like button.
I'm a simple man too. I see a girl with an A7X shirt on, I hit her up.
if i am a complicated man, i see av7x.... i am going to rock the world
I think you'd like my channel then :D
We simple men are easy to please
You are the like button's fucking nightmare
2:12 wow.....did not expect that.... bravo 👏👏👏👌👍
Nice to see Exist getting some love
Branflakes1522 well that love does exist
swoly god I hate to love this pun
In 200 years, people will study songs like exist like we are studying j.s.bach now
Exist is one of the best Avenged songs and a modern metal masterpiece... the vibe, the lyrics, the riffs, the solos, everything...
Not as masterpiece as save me though.
Haters ain't got nothing on Syn's technical skill. He is capable of a ton more than just metal riffs, and his dad and him and have made a free online school to teach guitar which in my opinion deserves a little respect from the music community.
1:06 I like how that part sounds like the main riff to Wherever I May Roam.
That's what i thought
Phrygian.
I know right, its hard for me to unheard it because im a big fan of Metallica
Ok?
And right before it a micro version of the killing in the name of riff
I’ve never seen a video where they play the crazy part in the beginning of natural born killer wow good shit
yeah its never even been played live
Dylan Avery
Why?
Seems like if they didn't like the song, they wouldn't have put it on an album. I don't understand that logic.
Tactical Boredom tastes change. Or they had one more slot they wanted to fill and it was the best option.
its all about insting n how hard u learn
Preface, if scream or beast and the harlot isn't in here I'm gonna piss everywhere
EDIT: only releasing half
Dylan White lmao
Dylan White hehe
Did you still clean it up
beast and the harlot definitely had to be here, the riff is too fucking sick
He must be new to A7x
I think Betrayed by A7X is super underrated and fun as hell to play
So true, my favourite song from them lmao
The post solo riff from Buried Alive and the riff from Eternal Rest, they're simple but man do they make you wanna headbang yourself into a concussion
Natural born killer is my fav🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
ShOXx ExT r emE such a satisfying song
One of their best, but most underrated songs. By far one of my favorite songs of all time.
ShOXx ExT r emE same
Stoner63 ikr
El Finnle ikr, i gotta say, it's one of my all time favorite songs too
scream is such a sick riff. would've liked to see beast and the harlot but you can't include everything in a top 10
Zach Sevilla Given the context of the song, that typo fits well.
Zach Sevilla keep it. It works.
Zach Sevilla The song is about sex
dadiocoleman Is it about sex? I originally thought it was about murder. Maybe it’s a bit of both lol
saca_corcho unholy confessions was in here bruh
I think that crossroads is one of their best riffs.
Mental Health only for moshpit... you can't compare it to a critical acclaim or unholy confessions or even better desecrate trough reverence.
DEFINITELY
i would've swapped girl i know for crossroads (if we're doing smth off that album anyway)
Facts
turn the other way easily has some of the coolest sounding riffs at least IMHO
Their self titled album is just incredible!
PixleG i don't understand why that album gets so much hate like some of their best riffs and ideas come from that album
It is. It's a fucking masterpiece!🤘🏻
@@UhOh_ItzJDX does it get hate? They're the best ones along with city of evil lol
My personal belief is that album is one of the best of all time, easily one of top 3
@@UhOh_ItzJDX maybe post HTTK or hate from people that is not A7X fan.
Good job man. Please do a top 10 Trivium riffs
That exist riff is sick. I'm trying to learn it but it's pretty hard
RealGamerManz they did say they wanted it so no one could play it perfectly
Cobain_is_Boi it’s not even that hard tho...
@@swarmer5 that's probably cos you don't know how to play it exactly like them
Pablo Randri I don’t know , i play it like the youtube covers

Well played Indeed
Can someone please tell me his tone in scream like the amp settings lol
Everything was badass af, until I saw your Pes 2014 shirt
That's the last time he went outside cause he is no normal human with those skills
That was some random shit. PES better than FIFA tho
he deserve more than pes 2014
the welcome to the family riff is sooo satisfying to listen to, when u hear the song come up its pleasing to my ears
Didn't even think about rating until I seen you smash that Natural born killer intro!!! Sick! 2 thumbs up!

I love that song too much
Every part of that song is great
I love AvengedSevenfold so much these riffs are sick
Never seen someone able to play A7X songs so well, this is awesome
I would like to see This means war ! That riff makes you feel so badass while playing it !!
Avenged sevenfold riffs are so satisfying to listen too
They are!🤘🏻
I love A7X, but, some people don't take the time to appreciate all of the song, they focus mainly on the solos or the vocals, they forget to appreciate how kick ass the riffs are, how amazing the drums are and how it all blends together seamlessly.
Glad to see Girl I Know on this list. Diamonds In The Rough is severely underrated.
Ethan Linebarger it’s not underrated it’s jus that ppl didn’t really kno about it
@@goozygaz it's still underrated.
Long Live the Rev!!!! A7X fan for life they made my teenage years awesome and I’m 24 years old now still jamming All A7X classics cruising down snowy detroit MI
Avenged sevenfold is definitely my favourite band and stuff like this just reaffirms it

*Afterlife's riff is my favourite*
That Natural Born Killer and Second Heartbeat riff is so sick.. Rock on A7X
3:16 My Fave A7X Song
Scream is brilliant.
Easily the modern metal band with the largest collection of memorable riffs.
So, in some kind of way, like them or not, they are the "next Metallica"
U should've made it into a top 20 or something tho, so many great riffs missing (Eternal Rest, Lost, IWSYT1, Beast and the Harlot, Chapter Four, Roman Sky, Natural Born Killer, etc)
I love how God Hates Us All has four tremendous riffs one after another
Nice choices. Two songs of "The Stage", which means that A7X is as good as it always been.
Holy shit! The Natural Born Killer Riff you mastered! Especially on the bottom strings!
YES!!! IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!! SIMPLY AMAZING MY FRIEND, SIMPLY AMAZING!!!
Top 10 iron maiden riffs / solos
This is the best rhythm work I've ever heard! Incredible job man!
As someone who likes A7X, but isn't a Rabid fan ( had a chance to go see them, chose Lamb of God instead) I was a little dissapointed not to see Buried alive, Sidewinder, Beast and the Harlot, Requiem or Hail to the King.
the beginning solo to Natural Born Killer always gives me goose bumps especially right at the end when the drummer chases the ding.
For those wondering the song at the very end is a little piece of heaven
Bruhmoment we know.
2 years later but thank you so much
tone on unholy confessions is damn near perfect

@@ThatMooreBoy5.3 god hates us
Stokolm syndrome i mean ghu
Great video bro! can you do Top 10 Alice in chains riffs ?
YES! I totally didn't think anything from Waking the Fallen would make it on here. My first A7X album.
Shepherd of Fire would have been a good one
Fr, probably one of my favorite riffs from them
The transition from Natural Born Killer to Almost Easy sounded pretty nice
This brings me back to grade 8 playing A7X at the back of the bus
The chorus riff from And all things will end is amazing
Surprising you didn't get muted on unholy confessions
Dude, no apologies needed. You owe nothing to no one. Kick ass list!
You could say that this person playing the riffs makes them look almost easy.
Stop
Lol
Nice to see someone appreciate their newer stuff
A little peace of heaven guitar cover please!
Really love and appreciated you work man. Simple, quality content, played fantastically. Nice fat tone. Really nicely done.
Anyone else just busts out a 20 second scream for god hates us
Justin Alexander you kinda have to.
Now I’m imagining Jesus doing a cover of God Hates Us, both lead guitar and vocals. This would be during his “rebellious teen” phase, of course
Justin Alexander anyone else have an ear orgasm for 5:01
Yes all the time!
Dude I had to hold my self under control just to make sure I didn't wake up the hole Neighbourhood at the middle of the night
So glad you added "girl I know". That song is fucking amazing
What about Hail to the King?
I'm sad...
That one is one of my favorites.
Ur tone is amazing! How to u get that chunky Zacky V tone??

Brandon Tay mids
I know you metal heads usually turn that shit off but trust me is good
Triggered Snowflake Tried it and it works quite well! I dont usually turn off my mids , but i leave it rather low, like at about 4!! But now i cranked it up to 6. However, do u think i should lower the gain? It is currently at about 7 but with the high bass, treble, and mids, somehow it sounds a little muddy (maybe my amp just sucks??)
Brandon Tay most youtubers often have computers to their aid to perfect their tone, but turn your mids up and bass down
Brandon Tay i usually turn the gain bass and trebble all the way up
yeh, you hear everyone say no mids, all bass and treble but i have my mids up around 6 and it works sooo well.
1:06, Wherever I May Roam ....
Unholy Confessions is awesome with the harmonies....maybe not one of their “album” songs, but you gotta give some love to “Not Ready to Die” the riffs and that song as a whole are on another level 🤘
1:50 someone finally mentioned this album. btw its out officially now
I like this list . Could you do a Top 10 A7X riffs part 2 in the future , because there were some goodies mentioned in the discription . :)
I would have love to have seen Save me, The stage, Shepard of fire, Heretic.
So happy to see girl i know
Really underrated
Agree
It is.
0:50
KILLING IN THE NAME OF !!
Yea dude I’ve always thought that too 😂😂
I mean guys why is nobody talking about Acid Rain ! For me, it’s their best song from any album !!! So underrated
That part in 1:21 its like stockholm syndrome by muse
Vinicius França A7x influencing Metallica , KoRn , Iron Maiden , Pantera , Muse and etc. m8
Noname
No?
Noname that moment when Stockholm syndrome by muse came out before god hates us
Noname I think you meant a7x influenced by all of those bands mate
he literally just said it sounded like stockholm syndrome, nothing else xd
Thanks for getting right into the video without some 30 second intro and talking about what you’re gunna do instead of just doing it
1:18 100% their most badass riff hands down
Yep. That’s correct sir
He knows what’s up with exist, so underrated

00:38 God Hates Us
01:39 Girl I Know
2017 youtube : noo
2019 youtube : drop it make them feel nostalgic
I swear, I get goosebumps everytime I hear Scream's riff
Musically, Girl I know is a great song. Lyrically I can say it's my least favorite Avenged Sevenfold song.
UndeadKing996 dude same. Nobody seems to care about fucked up lyrics anymore...
person who exists it’s not fucked up it’s just so, how do I even say. Boring? I dunno I just hate the lyrics.
The Undead King M. Shadows has said it’s his least favorite because he hates the lyrics
its the only avenged sevenfold song i dont care for. so corny but definitely a good instrumental
If we're talking about fucked up lyrics, then we should be talking about A Little Piece of Heaven.
This is absolutely beautiful
WTF, do you deliberately pass the whole "City of Evil"? Come on, how on earth? It has the most badass and varied riffs of all sevenfolds albums.
Yeah with Hail To The King too
Because he can lol
Def would have added bat country
There are 50+ more riffs he could have added
Trashed and Scattered was definitely missing here
Omg you make this look soooo easy 😫
(2:11) how dare you being faster than my internet connection?
Well didn't know I liked A.S.F....until I heard these licks!!!!....decent chops !!!
