As a big A7X fan, although this song has grown on me, it doesn't even figure in my top 30 A7X songs. Some songs that should impress you more are Save Me, The Wicked End, Betrayed, or Sidewinder. These really do them justice.
as a life long metal fan, its far from the best songs by A7X, but its undoubtedly one of the most regognizable hard rock/metal songs ever, thanks to its simplicity.
I love how thoughtful you are in all your reactions/reviews. I totally agree on the fact that you have to listen to it a few times before it kinda "clicks". Not my favorite A7X song by any means, but I do like it a lot. I also felt it was very much written to have wide appeal to an audience, which makes sense since I'm pretty sure this was their lead single on the album. Great video as always, Dave! I look forward to seeing some of those SOAD reactions you've got in the queue. Your critiques and analysis are some of the best on UA-cam in my opinion.
They went more simple with this album. Earlier stuff so much different for sure. This album pays “tribute” or “rips off” other artist. Depending on who you ask.
This A.s .7 song is on my repeat playlist. Any song that has multiple layers between 16th 8th whole note and half note intervals between vocals drums and instruments is alright by me
Hail to the king and This means war are two of my favorite songs from A7X and this song came out in 2013. M.Shadows said in an interview " It's just cool storytelling. We got back to what we wanted the band to be in the first place, which is more fun. I don't think metal should take itself too seriously."
Here are avenged sevenfold songs. radiant eclipse, unholy confession, remenissions, we come out at night, god hates us, critical acclaim, buried alive, god hates us, god damn, the stage, requiem, eternal rest, second heartbeat, chapter 4, desecrate through reverence, clairvoyant disease, and all things will end, almost easy, exist, nightmare, a little piece of heaven, scream, welcome to the family, natural born killer, bat country, beast and the harlot, M.I.A, burn it down, demons, 4 a.m, paradigm, carry on, after life, unwind the chainsaw, this means war, danger line, not ready to die, seize the day, shepherd of fire, heretic, save me, fiction, dear god, gunslinger, Roman sky, so far away, unbound, crossroad, blinded in chains, trashed and scattered, the wicked end, to end the rapture, turn the other way, darkness surrounding, the art of subconscious Illusion, lips of deceit, warm ness on the soul, I won’t see you tonight part 1 and 2.
What engages a crowd? Besides the obvious, sound quality, visuals, pleasant harmonies, catchy rhythms, powerful vocals, there's the sense of movement or development that really captures the crowd's INTEREST, not just their ATTENTION. Almost like reading a book, the crowd wonders, "Where is this GOING?"...they enter a narrative of their own spontaneous construction--a larger, or alternative, CONTEXT...
Man, as a long time avenged fan you've really echoed my own feelings on this one. It's grown on me, and it absolutely slaps live, but it felt really...reductive compared to what I'm used to. But it's a Solid song, and I appreciate it. Thanks man, looking forward to seeing more from you. I highly recommend their song Afterlife. Catchy, complex, and Really, really solid.
Check out Save Me from A7X. Curious to see what your thoughts would be about that song with all the different changes throughout the whole thing. As well as Mike Portnoy tracking drums for the album after the Rev’s passing. I’m a musician myself and would love to hear your thoughts on this one! 🤘🏼
I feel like this channel is one of those that you watch one time and it's like "ehh maybe he makes a couple of good points" and then you watch him a second time and your like, "well maybe he's actually listening to ALL of the instruments" and then next time you watch him and you're like "well MAYBE I'll subscribe" and then the third time you watch him and I'm like, "ok he's pretty cool", and then next time you watch you say this could be a great channel even though he KINDA dogged my favorite band but he's at least a good guy and passionate about what he does and then you subscribe
I love you reaction and review! 👍 This album was classic sounds approached by the band. If you wanna listen to their signature sounds after the self-titled album, go check the Nightmare album. I hope you reacts the song 'Save Me'. Hard hitting drums, crazy melodic guitars, etc. Or maybe the longest one, 'Exist' from The Stage album. A 15 minutes song. 😂 Keep making awesome reaction!
Interesting choices of songs to react to by your viewers ^_^ This album is very simple and more "stadium friendly" generally. I do quite enjoy the softer songs on the album such as "Acid Rain", "Crimson Day", and "Coming Home" though. The Stage is an interesting album with a very theatrical, concept feel about it that I hope you get around to reacting to at somepoint; maybe the title track would be a decent place to start. There are also a bunch of songs from Diamonds in the Rough and Nightmare that I really dig.

I mean, they are both tapping but they are very very diffferent aside form that. Perhaps it is the tapping coming in first with the music building behind it which gives it that vibe.

I love A7X, but their last really great album was 'Nightmare'. Nothing particularly wrong with what they've done since but not up to the standard of their earlier work, imo.
They asked him to play specifically in this style without adding too many funky fills or double bass. If you check out the love shows, he did great. But it's true that also that Brooks was a way better choice than Arin
If you want a musical challenge keeping track of time signatures you want to check out SCHISM by TOOL.. The bass line from this track is just plain NASTY

The Stage is their newest album and probably the most unique by them

The stage, fermi pradox, paradigm and exist can be in this list too
Basically this is on A7X’s Black Album equivalent, and this song is their “Enter Sandman” without being as popular.
I like that analogy
Thank you for picking out the chugs during the guitar solo. I’ve always loved all that movement going on underneath Gate’s solo work.

Definitely paid tribute instead of ripping off, they're too talented to accuse of ripping off other artists, to me @ least.
@@Captain_Kirk116 yeah. I think that what “hail to the king” means. I hear Metallica. Megadeth, Iron Maiden, many others on that album.

I would love for you to react to "Buried Alive" but also what some others said: "The Stage"
Great reaction, thank you.
"Buried Alive" is already in the que, added your name to the requesters.
Honestly this was a listen multiple times song for myself. But yea in end I decided I liked it
fat bass driving it home, going for a classic rock feel. flirtatious solo that warms up, cruisin, then youre left wanting. AMAZING.
I love this song, however I love the fact that you have such a real honest opinion!
Avenged Sevenfold are masters of solo and instrumentals
their, maybe just a small band?, and thanks, that i'm glad, because you can take your time for check this song.
sorry bad english🙏.
Check out Save Me from A7X. Curious to see what your thoughts would be about that song with all the different changes throughout the whole thing. As well as Mike Portnoy tracking drums for the album after the Rev’s passing. I’m a musician myself and would love to hear your thoughts on this one! 🤘🏼

Sounds about right to me....
What?! I never heard A7X before, and it was awesome! Love it! Don’t get me wrong, I love metal or darker hard rock, but this song was great 🤘🏻
Avenge sevenfold is such a great band
I love you reaction and review! 👍
This album was classic sounds approached by the band. If you wanna listen to their signature sounds after the self-titled album, go check the Nightmare album. I hope you reacts the song 'Save Me'. Hard hitting drums, crazy melodic guitars, etc.
Or maybe the longest one, 'Exist' from The Stage album. A 15 minutes song. 😂
Keep making awesome reaction!
Cant wait for more A7X reactions, their early stuff is good tho 🤘
I actually also had it grow on me, I like it a lot.
You can react " The Stage" is very great song !"
Definitely gotta react to some more A7x but a song that represents them better. Good video dude 🤘

Great reaction.. You should check out "Avenged Sevenfold - Afterlife" (Live In The LBC)
It's a great gym work out song
It’s both 🤘
Come back around to Avenged!
Songs off of nightmare I’m sure you would like especially save me
Check out Avenged Sevenfold - Shepherd Of Fire. Just as good as this song.

I was just curious if you're a Svengoolie fan? Your videos have that feel to them and I think it fits well with your reactions.
Honestly I have no idea who that is....can you send me a link so I can check it out?
He's actually pretty legendary for B Horror fans. He uses a lot of sound clips in his show like you. ua-cam.com/video/iSqSihKi53Y/v-deo.html
I've never heard of him before, but I dig his style.
Hell yeah! I recommend beast the harlot or anything off city of evil! Great band🤘
It was. . . Ok.
For me its the only one I listen too
You should try Afterlife by Avenged sevenfold
No mold and fungus means no mushrooms, truffles or blue cheese
Love ure react , can't Wait for more A7X react.
Is it me or does the intro sound like it was inspired by AC/DC’s Thunderstruck?
Same man, came to my mind too
I mean, they are both tapping but they are very very diffferent aside form that. Perhaps it is the tapping coming in first with the music building behind it which gives it that vibe.
So you mentioned you don’t like long intros, can I request the stage? It has a long intro but it all comes together but I mean listen for yourself
torn on this too, not bad tho
btw wondering where the billy talent suggestion stands?
It's in the pipeline for filming and editing...it should be coming out soon.
Have you heard their Buried Alive or The stage?

@@THEDavidHeretic Noted. Good to see Buried Alive in the queue tho. :)
Search Unholy Confession LBC. He sings it melodically and it's fucking amazing
The Stage & The Night are two other good songs from them imo
the Night? either you mean The Fight, which i 100% agree with, or there's a song i don't know about
@@UhOh_ItzJDX yeah, mb... The Night is a Disturbed song hehe
Want something darker? listen to Buried Alive
I love A7X, but their last really great album was 'Nightmare'. Nothing particularly wrong with what they've done since but not up to the standard of their earlier work, imo.
Personally this is the only avenged sevenfold album i like, cant stand their stuff before this like nightmare
Save me, buried alive, exist, the stage, paradigm, God hates us
David, you have to listen this band, shepherds reign, le manu
7.2
"That's the truth!"
I love this song, but the drummer between the rev and wackerman (excluding portnoy) was overly simplistic and kindof boring imo.
So true
They asked him to play specifically in this style without adding too many funky fills or double bass. If you check out the love shows, he did great. But it's true that also that Brooks was a way better choice than Arin
If you want a musical challenge keeping track of time signatures you want to check out SCHISM by TOOL.. The bass line from this track is just plain NASTY
Already in the que, added your name to the requesters.
A7x - Heretic
I think you'll like this song given by your name lmao, it's in the same album as hail to the king
Already in the que, added your name to the requesters.
@@THEDavidHeretic thanks, i'd like to see your opinion on it given you gave a good view on hail to the king
Hey man you should react to Power of Equality Red Hot chili Peppers live at Slane Castle
Already in the que, added your name to the requesters.
If you think this is good you should try their other one avenged sevenfold this means war
That was my first Avenged Sevenfold reaction on the channel.
God hates us live at rock em ring is a must😎
Please react to Fermi Paradox by A7X :)

This song was written for the Lead Singer's new born boy
City of Evil album 🤘🏻🔥🍻
Honestly. This is the title song for this album, and one of their biggest hits. It's good, but I think it's the worst song on Hail to the King. 😂
