Band Information, Part I:
Avenged Sevenfold are a Huntington Beach, CA phenomenon. They apply soaring, pop-punk harmonies to raging power metal licks with chugging hardcore breakdowns. At the start of their career in 1999, it seemed fans of Bad Religion and Iron Maiden finally had something to agree on, but these metalcore stalwarts-turned-mainstream-rock-stars upped the ante on their signature sound, combining a more eclectic range of influences in the hard rock arena, and flipping the ratio of guttural growls to clean singing to include more of the latter and less of the former. In 2005, this new approach saw the release and success of City of Evil -- the band's major label debut, and platinum-selling record. Continuing to conquer the Billboard Charts, A7X returned in 2007 with their self-produced, self-titled hard rock tome containing political outcries and an ode to Pantera.

They rock. A7X all the way.
Plus, Synyster Gates is the hottest man alive. Aside from Mudkip himself, obviously.

I absolutely love A7X. They are awsome! Eventhough they arent really emo, more rock I think, great music! In my top three all time bands. Afterlife, Strength of the World,Bat Country, Lost, etc. all great! Cant stand Little Piece of Heaven though. The video was disturbing and I think they have better songs altogether. Syn and Zacky = best guitar team out there and I think that this band is the great american rock band.
Let our history repeat itself one too many times, for every time we return to our scene it seems less like a crime.

RE: The Official - Avenged Sevenfold Thread
Bah, everytime they play here they're supporting either Guns 'n Roses or Iron Maiden. Two bands that I totally hate.
But they're coming here in February, and I'll be there. For sure.
I used to listen to them a lot a couple of years ago, but I stopped, for some reason. But like, three months ago I sat down and listened to s/t album, and oh my god, it's one of the best albums ever made. Not as good as COE, of course, but damn close.
Scream makes me want to dance.
And the Seize the Day-solo must be one of the funniest solos to play. I love it.
