Anyone heard the new Avenged Sevenfold single yet? I just got it, and I think it's alright...

sonatafanica · May 17, 2010, 08:56:15 PM

I have not.

This thread is useless without the song, so here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1Bi1c9LmhU&feature=player_embedded

I didn't realize it was up on YouTube. I got it from iTunes.

Gadough · May 17, 2010, 09:13:58 PM

I like what I hear. Not exceptional, but good enough.

sonatafanica · May 17, 2010, 09:15:44 PM

I gave it a fair listen. The bridge is o.k., other than that it's a pretty uncreative piece of music.

MP did a pretty job covering the Rev's style (which probably wasn't that hard; you can cut through the MP influence on some of the old A7X drum parts with a knife). This song is pretty meh though.

I'm not a fan of Avenged Sevenfold at all, but I gave the song a quick listen. Those vocals are fucking annoying.

Zeltar · May 17, 2010, 09:49:09 PM

It's alright. Nothing special but it gets the job done. I certainly hope the rest of the album is more epic.

Arcaeus · May 17, 2010, 10:01:08 PM

Eh, about the same level of quality as their self-titled. That is to say it isn't terrible, but nothing special at all; not unlistenable, but not something I'd choose to listen to.

But I fucking lol at comments like this:

Quotedefinitely pure shit, they sold out after City of Evil, and continue to disappoint once-loyal fans....oh, and it's not because Jimmy died, it's because of the record label they're signed to, lack of harsh vocals, Guitar Hero/Rock Band BS, and people who think this is metal....

The vocals were very Hetfield.

Not all of them, but there was one moment where I was like "oh yea there's hetfield".

RandalGraves · May 18, 2010, 06:13:40 AM

I actually really dig this tune. It's not reinventing the wheel, but it's fun.

Indeed it was.

Listened to the song, but their music is not my cup of tea. I hope the fans will enjoy it though.

YtseJamittaja · May 18, 2010, 09:24:24 AM

Yes, their music is not my cup of tea but I really like this song!

John94 · May 18, 2010, 09:50:16 AM

I like it. Intro is very good. Can't wait to hear the Rev's Masterpiece or so he called it.

antigoon · May 18, 2010, 10:13:43 AM

I see the potential for good music out of this band. Love the singer's voice, just didn't dig the tune.

AwakeFromOctavarium · May 18, 2010, 10:38:57 AM

I do not appreciate this band at all. Not my thing. Sorry for trolling.

God, you're such a troll. GTFO

Slain · May 18, 2010, 06:52:06 PM

Eh, I can definitely sense Portnoy's influence (even if it's just slight) on this song, but I can't say I like the song too much. Their singer sounds like he really wants to be James Hetfield... I don't know, some singers really grow on me after a while (I didn't like Labrie much at first, but he's one of my favorite singers now) but I have a feeling that this A7x guy never will.
