It's just from his singing practice. His voice sounds much more light and free than ever before which is a good thing. He's using more frontal placement so he's not pushing his voice from the chest so much anymore.
me either like seeing a few mins of him playing guitar was incredible like that was something I enjoy about Matt and for Brooks he's like a machine just drumming away.
That moment when you see shadows play the guitar which was kinda cool but you wonder how.... then you realize he's got one of the best guitarists alive as a best friend :D
Lol? Wtf is this comment? Learning how to play guitar is not impossible, most people can play something on a guitar. Matt was playing since he was a kid.
Paradigm, Sunny Disposition, and Exist are 10/10. Shadows was absolutely right about the album being off-putting at first. I hated it the first few times I listened to it, and now I adore all but one song on it
The bests for me are Creating God, God Damn, Fermi Paradox(hidden gem), Roman Sky(Because I love Giordano Bruno) and Exist(One does not simply exclude Exist)
@@FeedeDelRojo No, Zacky recorded the entirety of the original version of STST. After Brian joined, they re-released the album where they replaced only the original piano version of To End the Rapture with a new version of the song that features Brian's guitar playing (the one we're all used to hearing). The rest of the album was still entirely the same with Zacky's original guitarwork. You can find that original piano version of the song on RUclips. It's interesting because you can even hear the vocals sound completely different between the two. You can hear the immature Shadows voice on the original and the very specific Waking the Fallen-era tone in the updated version.
I think matt is so right when he says he is challenging the fans, as my boyfriend and my sister don't like this album so much but I'm obsessed! can't wait to see them in January 😍😍😍
I'll make a decision if granted the previlege but I'm afraid my taste is unrefined, and no one likes cheap wine... My favorite verse from this song, it's really nice to sing.
I think the new album is fantastic. I only have positive thoughts about the musical direction you guys are taking. Everything, the drums, guitars, bass, singing, and extra instrumentation are phenominal. Mr. Gates has to be in the top 3 lead guitarists out there right now; it's not just his technical ability, but his style and choice of notes is impeccable.
I've heard of him, but I'm not all that familiar with his playing. He used to be in Falling in Reverse, right? What would you recommend as some of his best work? I'm always looking for new music to listen to.
Shaun Fuller look up "wolfsbane" by his new band Cry Venom. Or "Breaking Damnation" by Jason Richardson (another great guitarist). Those are both some of his best pieces in my opinion
Shaun Fuller Also, since you said you're always into checking out new music, check out my song "imagine" which is focused around some tech guitar stuff! haha all your dreams will come true if you do!
The stage has always been my favorite album since the release of it. And sunny disposition has always been of my favorite songs from that album it's awesome to see how it was made. Keep up the amazing work guys and I can't wait for the next album.
This is exactly what I thought of the record. Always when you think they are going to play this certain note they surprise you by playing another one and it kept the whole album so interesting to listen to... This album is insanely good.
Sunny Disposition is one of my favorite songs on the album. I like it BECAUSE of the 'funny' notes... that's pretty much how I described it to friends, that it uses "funny notes". Love the background growling vocals
I think I speak for everyone when I say you guys don't have to make these videos so short. We want to see everything we can! Make them all like 30 minutes long haha.
turkeysandwich3 agreed. Although I've always felt Brian has the prettiest face, Matt is definitely the most attractive, I think his personality just makes him more desirable.
Its almost unheard of to see a band take a downward spiral and seem like they may be at the ending and then completely kick open the gate and release some of their best work. That takes a whole new level of talent and musical maturity which Avenged has achieved.
this album is amazing guys. It feels good, it feels original, it feels new. Loved it so much from the first couple listens. Can't stop listening to it since the release on fact. May all your albums be as exciting this one.
I love the collaboration and discussion at the beginning about the notes and reception to them. I think we all know how passionate you guys are about music, but it's nice seeing the serious side behind putting everything together as well.
What I love about this song is that it’s like the “Revelations “ map of avenged sevenfold, there are elements and little hints from previous songs in it and they all make on great songs
I LOVE Sunny Dispostion! Most definitely one of my favorite songs from A7X ever. And I've been down since C.O.E. Great fuckin album yet again fellas 👍👍
This is my favorite song off the record. Feels like more A little peace of heaven kinda song. Watching behind the scenes of how they created this is just mind blowing.
I wish they did little videos like this for all of their songs. Its awesome to see my favorite band working hard to make great music. Saw them in Toledo Ohio for the second time and they are still the best band I have ever seen live in my opinion.
I really wish they continue in this way ^^ amazing album, it really stands out from the sea of monotomy and your every day riffs. I feel they could get even more proggier though...
I love their creativity. So much talent. I like music that pushes boundries ("unusual" chord junctions) and of course using different genre's styles and colors to create a unique sound. Keep up the great work!
I love these videos. it's so cool to see how all of this was put together. thanks from the fans for the effort!! also, seeing Matt play a bunch of different instruments other than just singing is awesome. you guys are talented!
this morning like around 8 i was listening to sunny d and i said "they sound make a behind the scenes for sunny disposition" and then it uploaded today. thank you guys!
I can't wait to see the video about Exist. I just hope it doesn't end up like Coming Home or Sidewinder, where it's one of their best songs but they won't play it live
Yep, i have fallen in love with this record.. its dark, and dreary, just like i like my a7x to be! Fucking love this album so much.. its grown on me quite a bit, but this about all im listening to right now.. Would love to see this album live.. last time i saw you guys live was early 2000s, cincy warped tour.. you all had to cut your set, as security was scared the crowd was getting too brutal.. fucking pissed me off.. but.. it was fantastic..
Saw them in Sheffield last week... definitely my favourite album. Never thought it would be possible to beat after "Avenged Sevenfold"/white album but "The Stage" is mind blowing!!
seeing Matt on Syn's guitar: *mind explodes*
In the next video: Syn playing bass, Zacky on drums, Johnny singing with Brooks
PossiblyImNoob ZACKY ON DRUMS 😂
mind fuck
Jhonny on vocal
Haven’t we had enough of Jonny’s singing from nightmare
I support a 50 min video of these Studio Sessions
i second this strongly
yes please
The Strife how bout from the start till the end without cut version?
XpSAN how about just a camera following them around everywhere they go and completely uncut
yupppp me toooo
It's amazing how different his speaking and singing voices are.
Rusty Shackleford without seeing his face he sounds a lot like TJ Miller
His voice has change... I saw an old interview, his voice was deeper back than..
Sarcastichuman Beingsarcastic I'd also imagine that it's a bit worn out if this was filmed during the recording.
It's just from his singing practice. His voice sounds much more light and free than ever before which is a good thing. He's using more frontal placement so he's not pushing his voice from the chest so much anymore.
Matt playing guitar. Nice
SkorpionPlays - Destiny Hey I know you!!
Hey there ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
This new album is absolutely killer!
I never even knew Matt could play guitar tbh :P Was cool to see though
he recorded some parts during selftitled album
I didn't know Matt could play like that. Cool!
Fancy seeing you here lol
me either like seeing a few mins of him playing guitar was incredible like that was something I enjoy about Matt and for Brooks he's like a machine just drumming away.
***** I'm everywhere lol
Haha, I've got you on facebook and was scrolling through here and i was like, oh shit I know him lol
LOL nice. Yeah I'm a big A7X fan :)
Who else thinks this album is phenomenal?!
ManUtd18 i do
ManUtd18 meee
ManUtd18 definitely 🎶
ManUtd18 me too it's one my new top favorite from start to finish
Me :)
Matt is not only a great vocalist, but just a great musician.
I fucking love everything of this album
Jajaja se que sos argentino por la foto del pls de newells, aguante avenged
Felipe Sequeira jajajajaja estás en lo correcto
Como tocan estos hijos de puta, shadows, zacky, gates y johnny unos cracks. Y Brooks toca re sarpado la batería
Agustin Rapiman Brooks es un animal
Felipe Sequeira Es una bestia, toca re piola en Paradigm. Bah, en todo el álbum y en los conciertos
That moment when you see shadows play the guitar which was kinda cool but you wonder how....
then you realize he's got one of the best guitarists alive as a best friend :D
He was playing way before sevenfold was even formed, said the first song he learned was strength beyond strength
He learned guitar before he learned to sing tho...
Lol? Wtf is this comment? Learning how to play guitar is not impossible, most people can play something on a guitar. Matt was playing since he was a kid.
@@infernosdante4557 haha that's exactly what I thought
Paradigm, Sunny Disposition, and Exist are 10/10. Shadows was absolutely right about the album being off-putting at first. I hated it the first few times I listened to it, and now I adore all but one song on it
that one song is Simulation, isn't it?
That is my favorite song off the album 😂
Gp TheLastSinigami Yeah Simulation is hard for me to get into as well. Don't quite understand it.
DragonRising II oh same here...I legit was like "I need a new favorite band now." But it grew on me
The bests for me are Creating God, God Damn, Fermi Paradox(hidden gem), Roman Sky(Because I love Giordano Bruno) and Exist(One does not simply exclude Exist)
Zacky wearing Bad Religion t-shirt while jamming with their former drummer - priceless
Fuck!! First time I have seen matt. Play guitar
Sachin Agarwal You never saw the making of their self titled album?
Yeah but electric guitar. I knew he did acoustic.
he played with slash to on the song they made
OldSchoolDudeGaming he wrote a few riffs on electric guitar like on Critical Acclaim
I know he plays guitar. And I have seen a couple of clips and pics too but never like this.
Wow! Didn't know Matt could play guitar that good!
He used to be the guitar player with Zacky, before syn Syn appears.
nils01 He recorded the demos from STST, then syn appears.
@@FeedeDelRojo No, Zacky recorded the entirety of the original version of STST. After Brian joined, they re-released the album where they replaced only the original piano version of To End the Rapture with a new version of the song that features Brian's guitar playing (the one we're all used to hearing).

"Brian is gonna sing" come oon guys! You should've showed that
ahh so Matt played the intro guitar on this song, cool!
Danny Sands no he didnt
Danny Sands More like he created that part aside with Brian.
Probably not on the album. This was a jam session while they were writing and recording the album.
I love the chemistry in this band
my favorite song from the album, hands down
so matt wrote that opeth-sounding octave riff
Breaking contract with warner was ur best move. This is your best album since Waking the Fallen . Keep the great work we love you
Matt playing the guitar. How fucking awesome is this?
MY FAVORITE SONG ON ALBUM!!!!!!! SHADZ OUTDID HIMSELF WITH THE VOCALS IT SOUNDS SO BADASS!!!!!!!!
I think matt is so right when he says he is challenging the fans, as my boyfriend and my sister don't like this album so much but I'm obsessed! can't wait to see them in January 😍😍😍
I'll make a decision if granted the previlege but I'm afraid my taste is unrefined, and no one likes cheap wine...

Hilarious, I will!
Man, the way Matt explained everything. This album is genius.
The stage has always been my favorite album since the release of it. And sunny disposition has always been of my favorite songs from that album it's awesome to see how it was made.
Keep up the amazing work guys and I can't wait for the next album.
What do you think they are talking about ? Like the meaning of what they are saying
This is exactly what I thought of the record. Always when you think they are going to play this certain note they surprise you by playing another one and it kept the whole album so interesting to listen to... This album is insanely good.
Words can't describe how much I love these guys!
My favorite song in the album
Lovely Guiter Riff from Matt♥♥…………… That makes Sunny Disposition exceptional......
You can tell how much they love the fans to create videos like this so frequently. I love you guys, rock on.
Sunny Disposition is one of my favorite songs on the album. I like it BECAUSE of the 'funny' notes... that's pretty much how I described it to friends, that it uses "funny notes". Love the background growling vocals
Seeing matt play guitar is amazing.
fucking love this album lyrically and instrumentally ❤
The dog walking around the studio near the end. 10/10
Matts voice has really changed... Especially when he's just talking.
Yeah, but it's understandable. He has a singing style that really "strains the voice".
u sacrifice a part of urself on things u love. Now that's dedication and commitment. Respect
Changed, cuz of the high notes that he use now. Sounds weird, yeah..
+Никита «Soviet Steel» Зеленков He used to sing higher notes on city of evil and waking the fallen.. I think he is only growing up
Of course it has to change, their first record was like 18 years ago.
Man I feel SO CLOSE to the band in this video holy shit it's amazing
I always loved these behind the scene videos avenged does. It's probably why I fell in love with the band just cause the guys were so cool
Zacky V with Bad Religion shirt😍
Really love the chords you guys went with in the chorus. Way dark, and unpredictable. 👌
I think I speak for everyone when I say you guys don't have to make these videos so short. We want to see everything we can! Make them all like 30 minutes long haha.
that whole drum piece at 2:07 is so dope!
M Shadows has such a pretty face omg. Am I the only one who noticed that?
turkeysandwich3 he does have that innocent kid look lol
he always looked like a big brother to me. as weird as that sounds
brotherzone confirmed
I think they are all godlike )
turkeysandwich3 agreed. Although I've always felt Brian has the prettiest face, Matt is definitely the most attractive, I think his personality just makes him more desirable.
M Shadows has one of the best album to live voices when performing, almost sounds exactly the same. Can't wait to see them live again eventually.
Matts' raw city of evil voice is back. Love it.
Oh boy... this album is fucking awesome. 'Exist' should be played live. Its a show apart
Claudio Junior like as something to give matt a rest after a song with a lot of vocals
it would be great for that, but I can't see them playing it as anything other than the last song. It's too epic to be in the middle of a set.
maybe they'll just use the awesome intro of Exist as an opening for a show :D that would be rad
Waiting for "exist" session so bad!!! Please release it soon dude!

i love a7x!
they're incredible and perfect
I can't wait to see the studio session for Exist. That's my favorite song on the album.
this is a song that if Rev was still alive he would be the main vocals and it would be perfect in my opinion
Its almost unheard of to see a band take a downward spiral and seem like they may be at the ending and then completely kick open the gate and release some of their best work. That takes a whole new level of talent and musical maturity which Avenged has achieved.
What!? This is the first time I see Shadows playing guitar. Great job, man!!
makin tua makin bikin gremet-gremet, ah...😍💙
i swear we NEED these studio sessions to be longer
this album is amazing guys. It feels good, it feels original, it feels new. Loved it so much from the first couple listens. Can't stop listening to it since the release on fact. May all your albums be as exciting this one.
PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE AND LONGER ONES
Oh I've got Goosebumps! 💖
I absolutely love this song :D Really hope to hear it live
I love the collaboration and discussion at the beginning about the notes and reception to them. I think we all know how passionate you guys are about music, but it's nice seeing the serious side behind putting everything together as well.
More Matt singing, his voice in this record was wonderful.
And show syn's solos!
Hope they release a Higher and Fermi Paradox behind the scenes soon
John Kirk looks like they're going in chronological order so it'll be a while.
rodriguez_91 Yeah haha
I just want it to get to Angels so I can see Papa Gates' 1 take solo. I hope they recorded that.
that horns section is my jam
I just simply can’t believe that brooks came up with that beat after hearing less than 10 bars of the draft of the song… he’s truly a god
My favourite song of The Stage ❤
What I love about this song is that it’s like the “Revelations “ map of avenged sevenfold, there are elements and little hints from previous songs in it and they all make on great songs
On my first listen of 'The Stage' I had to immediately replay this song. So damn good! Loving these studio session videos.
I LOVE Sunny Dispostion! Most definitely one of my favorite songs from A7X ever. And I've been down since C.O.E. Great fuckin album yet again fellas 👍👍
I think we should all take a moment to appreciate how good whackerman is and how he puts the songs together
Wow M. Shadows on guitar, that's awesome! This is exactly why these studio sessions videos are so great, keep it up!
Ego is sure to save the world. Served up to happy boys and girls!
Domenick boucher fix*
This is my favorite song on the album 😍
I would've liked to see something about the saxophones in this
Zack Fraser they'll probably do a part two like they did with paradigm
Zack Fraser those are horns
Matty V Horns and saxophones
Matty V do you know what kind of horns they are?
Whatever they are,I'd like to see how they were written and recorded like the violins and cellos on Afterlife.
This is my favorite song off the record. Feels like more A little peace of heaven kinda song. Watching behind the scenes of how they created this is just mind blowing.
I adore all of this album. It speaks to my soul with words abd sounds! The stage just blew my mind!
this album is perfect from start to finish.. its on its own level..you can't compare anything to this...I'm eager to hear the songs live
Zacky V use the shirt of Bad Religion, and now One of Bad Religion member move to this band... nice 😀😀😁
Holy bat shit all this time I had no idea Matt played
He's ducking good!
I love watching this stuff. Enjoyed the white album and all the studio commentary on those songs.
Marr I completely agree with you.
Am sure Neil degrasse Tyson will make an apperance .... well at least i hope.
This album is sick, and now that I bought it I re complete my collection of every album and DVD. Avenged forever my favorite band
I absolutely love these "In the studio" recordings!!!
I wish they did little videos like this for all of their songs. Its awesome to see my favorite band working hard to make great music. Saw them in Toledo Ohio for the second time and they are still the best band I have ever seen live in my opinion.
first time see M.Shadows playing guitar. AWESOME!!!!
Great Album A7X. Cant wait for Exist Studio Session
I really wish they continue in this way ^^ amazing album, it really stands out from the sea of monotomy and your every day riffs. I feel they could get even more proggier though...
I love their creativity. So much talent. I like music that pushes boundries ("unusual" chord junctions) and of course using different genre's styles and colors to create a unique sound. Keep up the great work!
Matt playing guitar just gives me serotonin that's all bye
I could listen to Matt recording vocals all day
I love these videos. it's so cool to see how all of this was put together. thanks from the fans for the effort!! also, seeing Matt play a bunch of different instruments other than just singing is awesome. you guys are talented!
this morning like around 8 i was listening to sunny d and i said "they sound make a behind the scenes for sunny disposition" and then it uploaded today. thank you guys!
I can't wait to see the video about Exist. I just hope it doesn't end up like Coming Home or Sidewinder, where it's one of their best songs but they won't play it live

one of my favorites from this album
And noooo onnnee liiikes cheap wiiinnee
Stephen Sturgis sounds like the bit in breaking the girl by rhcp
Stephen Sturgis FAVORITE LINE EVER
Stephen Sturgis but but buttt... I drink $10 wine all the time
George Bedrin but do you like it?
Sachin Agarwal yeah I drank the whole bottle
Saw them in Sheffield last week... definitely my favourite album. Never thought it would be possible to beat after "Avenged Sevenfold"/white album but "The Stage" is mind blowing!!
One of my favorite fucking albums seriously killed this shit
This is my favorite song on the album! ❤️
This is my first favorite song of this amazing album! The others are badass too!
Absolutely love this album
This is my favorite song on the album!
I loved when Matt played guitar! Ahhhhh!
