    I think Brooks is extremely happy to have made the choice and given the opportunity to join and be apart of Sevenfold, especially at a great time like this. They have had so many exciting stuff planned and for brooks this must be a dream come true. Yes he was in bad religion but Sevenfold are taking things too a new level and have no limits and he gets to join the ride and just in one years he’s been a part of some amazing experiences and even more experiences behind the scenes that we haven’t been able to see. And we can all see how Sevenfold enjoys having him around as well. And the Rev is looking down at this amazing thing he helped create and is so happy to see how far its come. Rip Rev, and long live Sevenfold, the greatest band on the entire planet.

      Bad Religion was definitely holding him back. How long can someone play simple ass punk beats when they are a world class drummer deep down? I'm sure he felt like he was in a dead end gig, both musically, aaannd financially. Now he's got all the creative freedom in the world, and as a side perk, he's making fucking BANK. But yea, his unique and totally original playing is insanely similar to the Rev's. If an afterlife exists, and the Rev is seeing this, I'm sure he would approve of Brooks taking his place.

    M. Shadows voice has really evolved. Considering what he's gone through with his voice, he managed to sound incredible and still uniquely himself, even if a bit different.
    I was listening to this thinking how much he sounds like Chris Cornell (who is and always will be one of my all-time favorite vocalists). Incredible how Shadows has adjusted his range and tone. I'm so impressed with this performance, though it's a shame he can no longer safely belt it out like he did for the LBC show.

    This song is about Giordano Bruno who was burned at the stake in 1600 in Rome for heresy. He was the first to claim that the universe was infinite, and the stars were actually suns with their own planets. He claimed that there was a huge possibility that these planets fostered life. In essence, he was a martyr for truth.

    "Roman Sky"
    As the embers rose through the Roman Sky
    Tell me, were you calm when they took your life?
    Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
    Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
    Shine forever true
    Shared with us the world well before your time
    Though they took your voice, words forever shine, yeah
    Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
    Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
    Shine forever true
    As they spoke your fate, a fearless man replied
    "As you will sentence me, your fear is beyond mine, yeah"
    Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
    Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door

    • @mrknockknock1
      @mrknockknock1 6 років тому +12

      This was a lot better than the album version. Shadows really poured his soul into this performance. The string section and Gates' harmonies really complimented his dedication. And the band as a whole, along with Brian Haner I and the string section, really stuck together, as if they were sharing the same brain. Even though this was freaking flawless, they didn't leave their modesty and humility at home. Respect.

    • @Glace1221
      @Glace1221 6 років тому

      mrknockknock1 you know what? Yeah, I like it more than the album version. Sounds more natural and classic with no unnatural cuts and no electric guitar. It sounds less manufactured and recorded, and more like a band of bards telling the story of a great Roman general.

    Lyric
    As the embers rose through the Roman sky
    Tell me were you calm when they took your life?
    Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
    Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
    Shine forever true
    Shared with us the world well before your time
    Though they took your voice words forever shine
    Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
    Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
    Shine forever true
    As they spoke your fate a fearless man replied
    "As you will sentence me, your fear is beyond mine"
    Just before you go, tell us how the heavens flow
    Weightless evermore, as you walk beyond that door
    Shine forever true

    Roman Sky is inspired by Giordano Bruno (born 1548 - Died 17 February 1600). The Catholic Inquisition, under direct orders from Pope Clement VIII, had him taken to the Campo de' Fiori (a central Roman market square). There, he had his "tongue imprisoned because of his wicked words", was hung upside down naked, and then burned at the stake. His ashes were then thrown into the Tiber river. His crime? Proposing that the stars were distant suns surrounded by their own planets, raising the possibility that these planets might foster life of their own(cosmic pluralism), and insisting that the universe is infinite and could have no "center".

So when they come together as a band it's mind blowing.. I can't get enough of them.. I've watched endless interviews of them and their all so hummble that sometime I wonder if they realized how great, amazing, talented of a band they are..
