@@TailsGTR yes it is, the rev has zero vocals until Self Titled. The backing vocals the rev does before Self titled are the following: - Backing screams on The Art Of Subconcious Illusion - Gang vocals on "Strength Of The World" - The "All Alone" in the bat country chorus Aside from that everything is Matt from STST-CoE with the rev receiving his first vocal parts in Self Titled.
@@triplej8666 someone said it was the rev its my fault for not doing research since ive been a fan for like a year now thx for letting me know i was incorrect
Avenged sevenfold albums in order Sounding the seventh trumpets Waking the fallen City of evil Self titled Nightmare Hail to the king The stage Life is but a dream All bangers
One thing you shoul know about this band is that they are a real family, all the members were childhood friends from elementary-middle school (Except Johnny, he's a few years younger than the rest and joined in high school), they all grew up together playing music together, in their first album Matt's (lead vocalist) girlfriend did the backing female vocals and screaming, then became their manager and they got married, her sister is married to Syn (lead guitarist), and Syn's father sometimes plays the guitar in some of the songs. It wasn't until Rev's death in 2009 that they got a new member that wasn't basically family to them. I think this is the biggest reason why they're all so compatible and in sync together and can make these great songs in perfect harmony an coherence.
Love all those albums and wtf is my all time favorite album but ride the lightning - black album or kill em all - justice (depending on who u ask) are by far the best 4 album runs ever
you HAVE to do the live in the lbc show so you can see how truly godlike matt was before he blew out his vocal chords. That also has the rev on drums as well
A very underrated album, even though it is one of the best metalcore, most people only know the soft groove, but Waking is often missed by bastards, Thank you for the overall reaction to this album.
@@BigDaddyTyHD the poison is good for sure def top 5 but id say waking the fallen, ascendancy, the fall of ideals, and an ocean between us are better. But the poison is right after those
What I love about Avenged Sevenfold is with each and every album they give you their best. This is the best that they can do right now. They take what they know and make it better. And when they put out their next album, they’re gonna do the same.they take what they know and make it better. It’s the best that they can do. It only gets better from here.
LMFAO when you made it to I Won't See You Tonight at the end I was literally laughing my ass off when you were talking about how good the end vocals were HAHAHA awesome review bro... Would definitely love to see you react to the rest of their albums after this if you think this one is this great. haha You have a great musical insight I must say haha
I'm SO glad someone else has as much appreciation for Clairvoyant Disease as I do. It's so good I think my top 3 from this album are And All Things Will End, Clairvoyant Disease, and Radiant Eclipse.
Avenged Sevenfold has a story arc a lot like Deftones. This would be like jumping into Deftones between Adrenaline and Around the Fur, the further forward you go in their discography the more their sound changes (Although the hardcore kids were fucking PISSED about it back in the day).
I was one of the ones that was pissed 😂 first album came out in high school and were my favorite until they signed to wb and i threw their cd out my car window 😭 it took me til like 2012ish to try giving the newer shit a try
Avenged is crazzzyyyy good. Next album, City of Evil, is one of my favorite albums of all time, period, from any band. If you liked Waking The Fallen, you’re gonna LOVE City of Evil The band members by the way, real names and (stage names) Singer: Matt Sanders (M. Shadows) Lead Guitar, Piano, Backing Vocals: Brian Haner (Synyster Gates) Rhythm Guitar, Backing Vocals: Zachary Baker (Zacky Vengeance) Bass: Jonathan Seward (Johnny Christ) Drums, Backing Vocals, Piano: Jimmy Sullivan (The Rev) [RIP] Jimmy, The Rev, was the original drummer of the band, from their creation in 1999, until his early death in 2009, at the age of just 29. Following his death, other drummers that have played in the band have been Mike Portnoy, Arin Ilejay, and the current drummer since 2015- Brooks Wackerman. The Rev was a musical genius and had a huge part in songwriting. Heavily regarded as one of the best drummers of his generation, possibly of all time. He inspired many drummers. (including me)
This reaction touched me man, rewatched it already now. Hoping for a future album reaction from their catalog, personally any of them I'd recommend, although I'm mostly a fan of Self-titled and City of Evil. (also the Desecrate through reverence ending is my favorite on this album, it's very melodic: "Don't waste your time, and don't waste mine.." And also the bassline in the early parts of I Won't see you tonight part 1 especially.)
The switch ups in songs from them are why they are one of my favorite bands ever, along with my favorite band ever System of a Down. Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan was Avenged Sevenfolds drummer and he was a monster, sadly he passed away just before they released their Nightmare album. Also the guitarist Synyster Gates is one of the best shredders ever, they are so talented.
If you’re excited by the singers voice now wait until you see him do it live. Surprised more people aren’t throwing out their Live in the LBC videos since they’re probably their most reacted to videos. You could do the whole concert since the whole thing is on UA-cam in high quality or start with the first song Critical Acclaim. Live in the LBC is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
loved your reaction! its funny how i feel kinda proud of you knowing and liking this album that i love so much, you'll like City of Evil a lot, hope you do that one too. haha
this is my favourite band thanks for reacting, what's different about this band is that almost every album sounds different from each other, all of them are under metal genre but every album is different subgenre of metal, for next reaction on this band i suggest "city of evil"
this takes me back to high school.. things were so different back then, its crazy lol the album Sounding the Seventh Trumpet brings me back to middle school 😂
@@OkayReno Hello/ If you like bars in metal Itll be good if you listen Disturbed and Static-X. Also try some Hed PE band, they combine hip-hop, punk, metal, reggae in later albums, they more rap.hybrid type in general.
You want to do city of evil next. You want to do city of evil next. You want to do city of evil next. You want to do city of evil next. You want to do city of evil next.
Watch them Live in the LBC. They play Unholy Confessions and Second Heartbeat at that show and honestly they're both somehow better than the albums versions
Still waiting on a reaction to their Live in the LBC performance and since I noticed you do full album reactions you should definitely just do the whole show lol it’s ridiculous start to finish
The Stage changed my life and the way a think, their music always mede me feel different and i loved all the albums, but the stage wasn't just an album for me.
My favorite switching vocalist from clean to scream is christian avelstem, used to sing for scar symmetry, solution .45, miseration, beautiful voice and range all one guy, when he left scar symmetry they had to replace with 2 singers to cover for the talent
Their album City of Evil is one of my favorite albums ever. It's a heavy metal masterpiece. You need to hear it. They do ditch the screams and breakdowns on it, though.
Synyster gates is the lead guitarist and Zachy is the rhythm guitarist. Synyster was on one song ‘to end the rapture’ on the album before this one. Synyster gates did the solo in I won’t see you tonight part 2. Please listen to city of evil there are more solos and overall people say it’s one of the best metal albums of all time (top 100)
City of evil is a great follow up, also if you like this i recommend killswitch engage as daylight dies or architects all our gods have abandoned us or ascendancy by trivium
Def go down the line in their discography if you plan to react to more A7X! City Of Evil, then Self Titled, then Nightmare. Awesome to hear the bands evolution over time like that!
59:05 Jimmy Sullivan, ‘The Reverend Thomolew Plague’, best known as The Rev. Dude was an absolute monster on the drums. He wrote a lot of Sevenfold’s songs and lyrics, and did a lot of the vocals in their later works (by that I mean their self-titled album) before his passing in 2009. Their music after he passed is great in its own way, but it’s definitely not the same band without him if you ask me.
Dude, The Rev, I love that dude so much, he’s the reason I play drums, he was amazing, RIP. If you think this album is dark lyrically, Nightmare is a whole lot darker than
Great reaction I definitely recommend making other albums. A7X fans flock here like wasps to candy. Each of their albums is something special and original... Unfortunately, the singer had a problem with his vocal cords after the second album. So he had to start looking for different alternatives to singing. Only the singer does most of the vocals on the album. But all the band members get involved too. Some albums have really beautiful harmonies...
An Avenged Sevenfold discography journey would feed generations 🔥
🤘🤘
💯💯💯💯💯💯🔥
Bro just casually digging up pure gold on UA-cam
* someone get this man on City of Evil, NOW *
PLEASE. WTF is Gold but COE in my opinion is their most complete album.
I’m 35 years old and I can with full confidence say that Avenged Sevenfold is the greatest band of my generation
I’m 28 and I wholeheartedly agree. My all time favourite band in the world!
I'm 19, it's my favorite band too
Same here bro, same here. Loved em since I was in middle school. They've just owned everything
NO MORE BREATH INSIDEEEEE ESSENCE LEFT MY HEART TONIGHTTTTT
🗣🗣🗣
Best vocal part Matt has ever done, shit is insane
@@puppetmaster8551 yep, agreed. the more I get into singing, the more I realize how insanely difficult that part is to sing. what a talent.
@@_WeDontKnow_ ya exactly that shit is impressive as fuck, Matt is such a sick and unique singer
yeah its the same guy on vocals screaming and singing
@@TailsGTR yes it is, the rev has zero vocals until Self Titled. The backing vocals the rev does before Self titled are the following:
- Backing screams on The Art Of Subconcious Illusion

Aside from that everything is Matt from STST-CoE with the rev receiving his first vocal parts in Self Titled.
@@triplej8666 Actually The Art Of Subconscious Illusion backing screams are done by Matt's wife Valary, not The Rev.
@@triplej8666my bad thats actually insane i always thought it was the rev
@@triplej8666 someone said it was the rev its my fault for not doing research since ive been a fan for like a year now thx for letting me know i was incorrect
@@noor6668 Both Jimmy and Val are credited on Art Of Subconcious Illusion under "Additional Vocals"
chapter four has been my favorite song for the past 10 years. Trust me it never gets old.
Avenged sevenfold albums in order
Sounding the seventh trumpets
Waking the fallen
City of evil
Self titled
Nightmare
Hail to the king
The stage
Life is but a dream
All bangers
Forgot Diamonds in the Rough between Self-titled and Nightmare.
@@mattmcsherry761i know i was just naming the main albums
@@mattmcsherry761 Diamonds in the Rough is an EP, not an album
@@G3ometry It wasn't an EP when it was first released with LBC, and it's still not an EP with official release.
To me they are all S tier in my heart except sounding the seventh trumpet, That one is not for me but i appreciate it bc its the beginning.
Oh shit! Im so in for this one !!! Love a7x 💀
Edit: City of Evil next 🤞🤞 won’t regret it!!
Fr we need every album in chronological order
@@snootdewoot if we do that we won't ever get to Sounding the Seventh Trumpet
Which I'd actually be okay with it

18:00 oh man, you’re gonna love city of evil
did not expect this one, I love this band since a young age. This album is amazing it had set the blue print for who I am lmaooo
This, city of evil, self titled, and nightmare make up one of the best four album runs in metal. All four are masterpieces, definitely check them out
I’d go as far as to include httk in this list, so underrated, and a little to shat on imo
Love all those albums and wtf is my all time favorite album but ride the lightning - black album or kill em all - justice (depending on who u ask) are by far the best 4 album runs ever
@evanterwilliger7010 yeah that's probably the best, opeth and sabbath had amazing ones too
They did as their idols Pantera, making great albums in a row
you HAVE to do the live in the lbc show so you can see how truly godlike matt was before he blew out his vocal chords. That also has the rev on drums as well
Mann next album is gonna be FIRE🔥🔥
Maybe the best reaction I've seen to anything A7X related, love your energy. Earned a sub my man.
Same
Me watching like - "wait till he finds out its only Matt on vocals.." 😂
A very underrated album, even though it is one of the best metalcore, most people only know the soft groove, but Waking is often missed by bastards, Thank you for the overall reaction to this album.
Waking The Fallen, for me, is the best metalcore album ever....
Best album ever*
love waking but The Poison is at the top for me. that album had such an impact on the metalcore community back in those days, unlike any other
@@BigDaddyTyHD the poison is good for sure def top 5 but id say waking the fallen, ascendancy, the fall of ideals, and an ocean between us are better. But the poison is right after those

I'm SO glad someone else has as much appreciation for Clairvoyant Disease as I do. It's so good
I think my top 3 from this album are And All Things Will End, Clairvoyant Disease, and Radiant Eclipse.
3 bangers
Avenged Sevenfold has a story arc a lot like Deftones. This would be like jumping into Deftones between Adrenaline and Around the Fur, the further forward you go in their discography the more their sound changes (Although the hardcore kids were fucking PISSED about it back in the day).
💯

sitting in the denver airport for a 10 hour layover trying not to fall asleep…and this shi pops up. BANGER like always mayne
Not the DENVER Airport
Avenged is crazzzyyyy good. Next album, City of Evil, is one of my favorite albums of all time, period, from any band. If you liked Waking The Fallen, you’re gonna LOVE City of Evil

Matt Shadows is a very underrated singer.
"Fun" fact - I Won't See You Tonight is based on the band members' good friend, who attempted suicide
Can't wait for City of Evil, Self Titled, and Nightmare😭😭

Man and Matt's voice is something special for real
I grew up listening to Avenged Sevenfold my older sister got me into their music and i still listen to their music still
Let’s goooo, can’t wait to see the City of Evil reaction
chapter four is also my fave.. i used to learn playing that song on my electric guitar when i was a teenager
If you’re excited by the singers voice now wait until you see him do it live.

you gotta listen to, "the fall of ideals" by all that remain, another banger from the 1st song to the last.
MAN you GOTTA listen to CITY OF EVIL next
what I love about this band is that they change their style every album so you never get bored
This was my favorite album when I graduated in 04. It’s still their best album.
loved your reaction! its funny how i feel kinda proud of you knowing and liking this album that i love so much, you'll like City of Evil a lot, hope you do that one too. haha

Welcome to Metalcore my guy
