Avenged Sevenfold

A hard rock/ metal band from Long Beach, California. Earlier albums were heavily hardcore/ punk and strain metal, but they since evolved into a more mainstream and radio- friendly metal and hard rock band, and their influences, like Metallica and Guns and Roses, shine through . There are a few odd songs here and there, with Dear God being country and Save Me being more progressive metal, however the genre hardly matters as they perform all equally well. They also give an extraordinary live show, although Matt doesn't scream anymore, so earlier songs are modified for clean vocals when played live.
No matter what kind of music you like, Avenged Sevenfold is just a great band.

Avenged Sevenfold

An absolutely hardcore, badass, extremly talented band from Huntington Beach, CA. Their name is commonly abbreviated to A7X.

Band Members: M. Shadows (vocals), The Reverend (drummer), Synyster Gates (lead guitarist), Zacky Vengeance (rhythm guitarist), and Johnny Christ (bassist).

Their first album, Sounding the Seventh Trumpet was released through Hopeless Records in 1999. It features the song Warmness on the Soul (amazing). Most of the songs on this album are hardcore and very metal!

Avenged Sevenfold's second album, Waking the Fallen, was released in 2003 through Hopeless Records as well. It features the hit Unholy Confessions (masterpiece).

Their breakthrough album, City of Evil, was released in 2005 through the major record label Warner Brothers. The single Bat Country greatly contributed to the success.

They just recently released their self-titled album in 2007 featuring the single Almost Easy. This is by far their most unique album. It takes elements from country, hip-hop, classical, and of course rock music.

Pinkly Smooth is the side project of Avenged Sevenfold's drummer the Reverend. He has an incredible voice. He has significant vocal roles in A7X's latest album.

Avenged Sevenfold

Also known as (A7x)
They're the most badass Metalcore band of the modern era.

Composed originally from Jimmy Sullivan (The Rev), Matthew Sanders (M. Shadows), Zachary Baker (Zacky Vengeance) and Matt Wendt who soon left to be replaced by Brian Haner (Synyster Gates). They also in 2003 got Jonothan Seward (Johnny Christ) which completed their classic line up.
Their most famous songs are Beast and the Harlot, Afterlife, A Little Piece of Heaven, Hail to the King, The Stage, Nightmare, Unholy Confessions and more.
Their last major line up change was in 2009 when their amazing drummer Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan died from a drug overdose. This lead to them trying many different drummers, but settling with Brooks Wackerman (real name) in 2015.

Avenged Sevenfold

Terms have been misleading on this band so let's set the record straight; Avenged Sevenfold is NOT for a fact a metal band or nor do they claim to be a metalcore or hardcore band. They have stated before that they do not appreciate the mislabeling and that they merely write whatever style their heart's desire. Many supposed fans have given this amazing band a bad name and image by claiming that they are trying to be metal or that they think they are. It is unfortunate that many fans open their mouths trying to defend this rock band before knowing what they are talking about. It is important to look into the bands musical roots and their intentions before saying ANYTHING, whatsoever!
Avenged Sevenfold, Rock, Not metal or hardcore

Avenged Sevenfold

A piece of crap band that claims they are "metal". They dress like fags, play faggot music, the singer sings like a girl, and their 12 year old fans think they're all hard and tough wearing their "Avenged Faggotfold" t-shirts.
"Hey man, you should check out Avenged Sevenfold, they fuckin' rule!"
