Avenged Sevenfold - where do I start ?

That's fine but you don't see me going into every Pain of Salvation thread and telling people not to listen to them.

No, I agree..neither would I....but I was trying to explain "hate" in context. I'm not defending any post.

You only do it when it's a Genesis thread   

GUILTY!

I honestly think Nightmare would be a good place to start. Then Waking The Fallen (their best) and City of Evil.

agree with the first part - Nightmare is the most varied of the A7X albums. what to do after that depends on what your favorite songs from Nightmare actually are. off the top of my head, i would say something like:

"Danger Line" --> City of Evil
"Welcome to the Family" --> Avenged Sevenfold
"God Hates Us" --> Waking the Fallen

and of course, don't worry about the debut album until after getting everything else, even though it has a few really good tracks.

It's a fun, fast, poppy yet rocking song with an awesome... everything. Don't hate. Auto tune is fine when done right any way... though I have been known to listen to Attack Attack at times so I may be biased.

Also the closing solo is just too fun.

Sure, as I said, I quite like it. But it's hardly very representative of A7X, which is what you seemed to be intending with that list.

Well A Little Piece Of Heaven isn't either. What I was trying to indicate was their desire to experiment.

Even if someone cannot get into their previous albums, Nightmare is far more accessable. It's really a tremendous hard rock album.
