Lyrics:
"He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man"
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay.
I tried to drive all through the night,
The heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights.
No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me.
Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention.
As I adjust to my new sights the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights.
My hand is on the trigger I'm ready to ignite.
Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right.
Mental fiction, follow me; show me what it's like to be set free.
Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention.
So sorry you're not here I've been chained too long my vision's so unclear.
Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem.
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay.
These eyes won't see the same, after I flip today.
Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die,
We look up towards the sky for answers to our lives.
We may get some solutions but most just pass us by,
Don't want your absolution cause I can't make it right.
I'll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man.
Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention.
So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear.
Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem.
I've known it from the start all these good ideas will tear your brain apart.
Scared but you can follow me I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die.

if you still listening to this song, i'm proud of you
Yep 👍🏾
Yeahh
kocak bet lu cil😂
nostalgia banget si wkwk
Wkwk
You might be cool but you'll never be as cool as Jimmy swatting bats with a fly swatter while in a moving convertible with bat wings.
Its just a rip off of the opening on the movie fear and loathing in las vegas
Johnny Depp did it better
What they said
What about Hunter S. Thompson
@@metalheadwhoplaysgames1826 exactly
72 years old and this song kicks ass. Still rocking.
🤘🏽❤️
72 years old wow
🤘hell yeah
W old guy 🤘🏻🤘🏻
U da man bro
The rev with a fly swatter is just 💀💀💀💀💀
RIP Rev, one of the best drummers this world has seen
so true man, he left us too early man
i read nor 'male girl' 💀
Aw man, how did he pass? That sucks
@@danielle1ashleyHe died to an overdose, suspects to be planned. He had a heart condition that would've killed him eventually
No joke. He wrote most of their next album after Bat Country.
This song made them famous. Also Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan was ahead of his time. That man was an alien on the drums.
If The Rev was inhuman Neil Peart would've been our alien overlord if he didn't just pass.That man was a force of nature.
Man's skills are legendary. RIP bro
I was thinking about how good the drumming is.
He's no Danny Carey
RIP
Producers:what special effects do u want?
A7x: Yes
(10 years ago)
A7x: Use all special effects.
Producers:smashing buttons
its based on the movie fear and loathing in las vegas where the protagonists are high on like 10 different drugs
just in case anyone didnt know
Riding to Arizona
CAUGHT HERE IN A FIERY BLAZE
@@HECKproductions thanks for that. before you mentioned it no one knew
That’s cause they want the video to be like the movie
Someone in 2024?
Yes
Just saw @avengedsevenfold perform this song at their show and the energy and visual was lacking. Still a great show, but wasn't hyped after this song. Video was 10000000x better than in person in 2024.
BEST SONG OF THE CENTURY
Nobody
yeah!
113 years old and this song kicks ass. Still rocking.
😂😂😂 soooo 80s 90s style of reply. I've just replied a comment like this as well.
113????!!
Damn, Avenged Sevenfold was quite ahead of their time.
Quite literally.
@@work8078 They were ahead of their time. Yes it's another one of those remakes/samples way back from 1910....
I am 269 years old and this song is still relevant. They just don't make music like this anymore.
This world needs this type of music/energy these days…. Legendary
👀
We need rockstars

No sir, all we have is mumbling rap. We’re living in dark times.
@@mikea5205 if all you can find is mumble rap to listen too, you're not trying to look for good shit
This is it. This is the song and guitar solo that made me pick up a guitar at 7 years old and continue to play until now, 21 years old. Thank God for Avenged Sevenfold.
Friggin A dude! 🤘
This is the best solo of all time
Dude I think we litteraly might be the same person, I started playing drums to this song when I was 7... woah
Respect ✊✊
Very inspirational
It's nearly 2024. I'm nearly 42.
It's still a beast of a song.
Yep
Take a shot everytime some retard mentions what year they're listening to this song in.
Same situation here
It got rid of the pain of being a man?
W 🫶
The rev always did seem like he would be the guy to smack bats with a fly swatter
Alexander P
Alexander P I know so funny
Alexander P I saw him do that and literally went "same"
Alexander P lol
Alexander P so true I always thought that 2!
We played this a friends funeral we thought it was appropriate, this was one if not is his favorite bands. Family friends were so confused, his close friends just crying happy tears. So thanks for the happy close off :')
He is with Jimmy now
Sorry for your loss.
I’m sorry for your loss but of all their songs this one?
@@leor2894 possibly drinking from one of his bars.
That’s kind of fucked honestly. I mean, doing one of their songs isn’t that bad, but choosing this one specifically, and for people who were grieving at the moment, is almost disrespectful
2:52 is such a badass solo 😎
Finally someone mentioned
Still a banger for us 90s babys
This tribute to hunter S Thompson video is not nearly as recognized as it should be. Idk what happened to this band but they could be making money still lots of it.
Still a banger for us 70s babies
Hellz!
20s here baby!!!
@@dr.keegan5303they're still around. Just put out an album a few months ago. It was... Different. Still love them as my gateway to double bass blast beats, but they're definitely not the same without the Rev.
You know a song kicks ass when the "Most Replayed" part is the beginning.
Oh yeah
ofc
that RRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
is probably the most epic song opening ever
@@crucible1084😂
It’s because people can’t read the quote at the beginning fast enough so they restart 🤣
There is nothing more 2005 than this
Even the guitar got a 2005 body shape
@@bonechip01 Well, it kinda was, back then :D
I knoww. Like if someone asked "Sum up 2005 with one video" this would be it
I was born in 2006 😎
Yeah. Wish I could go back. Better times than today, that's for sure.
Abraham Arellano props too u listening too a7x
Came back to listen back to their old stuffs after listening to their Life Is but a Dream album.
Really can't fathom how their music changes throughout the era, but they are still my number 1 band.
Hey I just did the same thing.
As people mature so do their perceptions, ideologies, etc.
If you listen to their lyrics they honestly have not switched up that much. They've experimented more, as they should, they're ARTists. Why not expand and explore? Life changes, people change, the universe changes, of course music will change with it. They aren't just changing their style; they're adapting to the change of times and maintaining their legend status and relevancy, and also expanding people's minds.
@@sunchild7181i could not agree more
Their music has mutated over the years much like @sunchild7181 mentioned. The energy and vibe of this album represents that points of their lives. Artists tend to ‘calm down’ when they mature losing that youthful irreverence. Same thing happened to Linkin Park, GNR, etc.
Rev was a huge driver for most of their work. When he passed, their music changed. Nothing wrong with admitting this as fact. Doesn't mean you can't love them the same now or more, it just is what it is
This is the most mid 2000s anything ever.
It's like a resume in one video haha
Almost.
Funny cause this song and video are a shout out to fear and loathing in Las Vegas
MrFlipperInvader792 the band or the movie?
@@billyrj973 The book which the movie was based
0:06 to 0:14
When I stub my toe.
hahaha
Lol Hahahahahaha 😂😂😂😂😂 Nice dude
yeah i get it lol
hahahahahahaahhahaha
:D
2024 anyone???
Yup, still a top 3 guitar solo for me too.
I’m here
Right here
Yup still here
Hell FUCKING YEAH, ever since I learned this is a tribute to the movie "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" and that movie is based on the same titled book. I FUCKING SWEAR, this is american history right here
Hands down one of the best bands ever. I’ve been listening to them since I was 11-13 in 2003-2005 and here I am going on 35 in year 2024 still blasting them as loud as possible from my various speakers!!! Got my 3 little headbangers vibin in the back seat to them too!! My little brother and I actually played “So Far Away” At our mothers service when we lost her back in 2020❤ #hailtotheking #sofaraway
We’re still here
Still here 🤘
my first concert was with them in 2007 and i was like 15 or something
Dan april akan konser di Indonesia ❤❤❤
The Rev was so iconic and timeless. sad to know there will never be another drummer like him but proud that I was around to experience him ❤️
TARN SOFTWHIP - - That girl is a drumming beast!
Not a drummer, but I could pick out his sound from a thousand drummers. Inimitable.
@@PhilipXanderMusicMaybe he meant that "Jimmy's irreplaceable for A7x", i'd be agree with that
@@DEFFFFffffyn Oh for sure - I agree. I was just saying that even though *I'm* not a drummer, I'd recognize The Rev's style from a mile away :)
Go get yourself a drum set and some sticks and start practicing man. You never know use his inspiration to fuel your fire.
Fear and loathing Las Vegas reference: this is Bat country we can’t stop here!!!
Came to the comments section to look for this
Vegas Rules.
Other way around lol. “We can’t stop here! This is bat country!”
This ballas country yall cant leave me here
Yup, the entire thing is, I love it.
Probably the last heavier rock song that MTV pushed. Now that I've been deep into post hardcore, nu metal, glam metal, and emo, A7X has gained a lot of respect from me for being this weird combination of things.
The Rev was just an unbeatable drummer 3:11 rest in peace man🕊❤️
Me at 14 - Seeing this for the first time. this music is fucking awesome!
Me now at 29 - Hmm Explains my taste in women thank you a7x
Shit I'm Fourteen
women with tales?
i’m gay, so what’s my excuse 😂
I might’ve been one of those women.... that was a while ago tho..... sorry guys. But I agree, bc this totally shaped my taste in men. And I was like 19 when this came out. And let me tell you, men that look like them ARE NOT NICE MEN..... but boy are they good looking and fun. 😂
Zova sorry kid... 😂
This song gives a whole another perspective given the current corona virus.
It's numbah won!
Yo wtf dude
@@poisonedsprite6254 Caught here in a fiery place...
What you mean?
@@profound369 Corona virus comes from bats. Caught in the fiery place... Can't you help me I'm starting to burn....No one can save me and you know I don't want this attention....
1000 years old and this song still kills it.
Never get bored seeing The Rev dealing with bats at 0:26
I’m 50 years old and I still have a girl crush on these guys. My mother was wrong! Lol 😂

lmfaaaoo gd it
Blasting down the backroads, highbeams on, windows down, and not a care in the world. Literally the energy this song puts out for me.
This song makes me want to do the dash on the interstate 🤣
This album came out around the same time my addiction to pain meds was growing out of control. My first attempt after a year of daily abuse was my introduction to detox. Never before had I ever felt so depressed and sad. Every day I wanted to just die. I wasn't so much sick physically as I was reeling from the post acute withdrawals, the mental and emotional side. As devastated as I was by everything I heard bits and pieces of this song and saw the video. I was intrigued by how much talent I was hearing and the guitar solo seemed like it was making a comeback. This song will forever remind me of how it was a spark of joy amidst the hell I was in. I relapsed 2 months later and continued to for another 12 years before I embraced recovery and now have 3.5 years of sobriety. The nightmarish imagery in the Bat Country video is tame compared to the hell I saw in my dreams and the hell I lived while awake. Never the less, I love A7X.
Congrats on the recovery. I was in the same boat as you in the mid 2000s. Oxycontin 80s were my own personal hell. So glad to be away from that life. Looking back on it, it's a miracle that I'm still alive and healthy. Stay on the right track.
@@roosterj2599 damn! That's some crazy shit, can't believe he had a baggie under his skin. Back in the day I tried pretty much every drug that existed. Lsd, shrooms, every Pain pill, heroin, coke, meth, alot of benzos, a few barbs, pot, fent patches, random speeders, and probably some more that I can't think of right now. Not trying to glorify my drug use but just trying to get across how bad off I was. My worst moment was waking up in the hospital after an od. I overdosed on 80 mg methadone, 10 mg Xanax, and some other random pills that I took after I blacked out. Went to long term rehab a year after that. Partied like a rockstar basically, alot of ups and downs. Now I enjoy other things, fishing, hunting, mushroom hunting (not hallucinogens lol), gardening, fireworks, trading cards, and most of all being with family. My bro has 3 kids so I get to be the fun uncle which I enjoy. Hope all continues to go well for you. Stay strong.
Its good to hear you guys are doing better these days. Be safe.
Well done my G
Congrats man!
0:06 Dad waking me up for school.
You have a strange father.
I can relate
@Jin Lightning I laughed way too hard at this Hahaha
I would not like because it will ruin the 69
Oi you have a great dad. My dad wakes me up by blaring the That 70s show theme song full blast outside my door. I love me dad.
I remember rocking out in my car in this song back when I was a teenager in the mid 2000s. Still an awesome song!
“HE WHO MAKES A BEAST OUT OF HIMSELF GETS RID OF THE PAIN OF BEING A MAN, AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH”
This lead guitar Guy kicks ass,no disrespect to the rest of this Band it obviously takes all there talents to get this wicked sound....
I like the solo in Scream the most out of all of their songs.

So maybe you're right 😂
I had been looking for the name of this song for so long. SO LONG
Anyone 2024
Took me 8 years to find this song.
High as hell listening to mtv top ten rock.
Damn it it was worth the wait
Damn and if I remember you only had a month to spot it. This was the dawn of the internet where songs were hard to find after they took it off tv. Props bro. Glad you found it.
I found them by Welcome to the family on the radio took me 7 years to find it
Welcome home Ian...welcome home
I remember listening to this song while playing Madden 06. It was the first A7x song I heard and I immediately fell in love with it. I knew I had to hear more of their songs. Now I have all their albums and consider myself a diehard A7x fan. Without a doubt my favorite band!
Lol I remember this would be my hype song playing rush attack in madden 06 good memories
Yup. The good old days
Jason Lewis After hearing two or three of their songs, I knew I had to check them out and was very impressed with the range of music they play! It's like each album was completely different!!
Jason Lewis I remember this song from saints row 2 no matter what game the song is still amazing :D
+Jason Lewis I first heard this song in Saints Row 2. One of my favourite songs in the soundtrack.
this video brings me so much happiness, Syn and Zacky's solo is just simply perfect.

Rest in peace we love you jimmy 🤘
First thing you ever catch my mind about this song..... I was born in 85, this had to have been around 05 right? Wasn't into much heavy stuff back then but from the very start............ those drums. What a way to start a song
This song is a masterpiece. I don’t think you guys will ever top it and I’m so happy for it.
This is it. This is the song that did it for me. This is what got me into rock music and this is the first song I heard when I arrived to Florida to start a new chapter of my life at age 15. The amount of memories good and bad, as well as sentimental value this song has will never be matched. Also, this was A7X and their peak. And im soo glad I could be there for it. Masterpiece.
@Rodrigo Digao cara de bicho
Its a mix of power metal and heavy metal this whole album
Imagine them just like doing normal stuff like eat cereal or vacuum.
It's like being in school but there are no weapons.
Awww!! The double kick on the drums... such a rocking song.
2:48-3:15 - Goosebumps. Every single time.
I always hate a7x solos on rock band, but listening to them is awesome!
dude I literally got goosebumps during that
Lol everytime no joke
harmonic guitar solos are a lost art form
And now, i think this part like kill bill- sza reff's
Even if you don't like metal, you have to admit that this is art at its best.

I didn’t like avenged when they first came on the scene. This changed that. I’m a HUGE HST fan and this was just amazing for younger me 😂
This isn't metal, bro.
"He who makes a beast out of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man" I never understood this when I was younger but as I've grown older it makes more and more sense.
I quoted that line in a paper that was a plea against my expulsion as a teenager and that paper gave me clemency
Almost 2 decades old and still one of the best songs ever!
“We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.
Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.”

Syn is belle delphine confirmed cos he shreds in the bath with an octopus or whatever tf that is
Have a listen to a song by erasure, its called love to hate you. At about 1:30 in.......sound familiar?
Anthony Pearson heard it. More like the “i will survive” beat. Nothing like this one tho
Thanks indeed. He's such a legend.
"We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs started to take hold"

Wish I had seen that movie sooner. I just watched it recently then a few weeks later I thought about the connection of this song to it. Crazy how many times I've listened to this song over many years and never knew about that movie :D
Blurgh Gitty lol same here. Ive seen this vid for maybe almost 10 years and just recently found out about hunter s thompson. Better late than never i guess

Lyrics:
He who makes a beast out of himself
Gets rid of the pain of being a man
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
I tried to drive all through the night
The heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights
No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me
Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses, and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me, and you know I don't want the attention
As I adjust to my new sights
The rarely tired lights will take me to new heights
My hand is on the trigger, I'm ready to ignite
Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right
Mental fiction, follow me, show me what it's like to be set free
Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses, and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me, and you know I don't want the attention
So sorry you're not here
I've been chained too long, my vision's so unclear
Now take a trip with me
But don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem
Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
These eyes won't see the same after I flip today
Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die
We look up towards the sky for answers to our lives
We may get some solutions, but most just pass us by
Don't want your absolution 'cause I can't make it right
I'll make a beast out of myself, yeah
Gets rid of all the pain of being a man
Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses, and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me, and you know I don't want the attention
So sorry you're not here
I've been sane too long, my vision's so unclear
Now take a trip with me
But don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem
I've known it from the start
All these good ideas will tear your brain apart
Scared, but you can follow me
I'm too weird to live, but much too rare to die
Crazy how they were all in their early 20s in the makings of this song and the others on this album. I’d be having the time of my life too
The rev with the fly swatter in the background is so funny
So no one is gonna talk about Matt smashing a bottle on Zacky's head at 03:29?

*ITS WEDNESDAY MY DUDES* 0:06
Under rated comment xD
🤣🤣🤣
Listened to this masterpiece for the first time when I was 16, 34 now and still freakin' love it
Avenged Sevenfold is what got me into guitar well over a decade ago. Forever grateful.
weird to see syn without his signature guitar
That means you're not a fan of them before 2006. either that or you don't watch A7X video City Of Evil era that much.
rob140892 lol I am a die hard fan of avenged sevenfold but in 2006 I was 4
that is his guitar its called synyster gates bat country custom
Randomthing1222 I'm a year older than you😂
Syn has multiple custom guitars. Only some of his guitars follow the same design. He has a few guitars, such as this one, that don't have pinstripes. Other examples are his German, American, and Confederate flag guitars.
when you realized the drum for this song is fucking insane... while your soul is on fire when you hear the intro...
Old A7X is freaking good....
well older but certainly not what they came out sounding like, their first 2 albums were screamo in which shadows refused to do anymore, great decision very awesome band from that point on
the turning point is the Self Titled Song... specially Seize the Day.
Dem drums doe....... I'm a guitarist and this makes me to throw my axes off a fiery cliff and pick up a kit.
Waking the Fallen, City of Evil, and Avenged Sevenfold, were all fantastic. Sounding Seventh Trumpet has some good songs, but overall is not a great album for me. Similarly Nightmare has a couple tracks I like (Welcome to the Family, So Far Away, and Tonight the World Dies are all great). On the whole though, the album just seems bad to me. Hail to the King is painful for me...far too bland.
Honestly, their 'older' stuff seems far more inspired, really pushing the genre and their image as a band, like they were trying to reinvent music. The last couple albums just seem like they're trying to ride their success as long as possible, while putting as little effort in as possible. Granted The Rev had a major influence on their style, but still....
My mom was listening to this today, and now I'm here! 😊
im 43, discovery this epic song yesterday at drumm youtuber channel and this song is a piece of art
_Wait...we can't stop here...this is bat country_
Sadly not a lot of people get the reference to FALILV

Fear and loathing in last Vegas baby
This dude predicted the Jussie Smollett attack hoax.
Just watch it awesome reference my dude👌
A7X at its best times. With The Rev... RIP!
Ethernica Gape Jimmy today has got birthday !
Fucking rev was the coolest guy I've ever known about
Definitely at their prime!
One of the top 5 guitarist ever in my opinion!
This is an amazing tribute to fear and loathing! Excellent story telling
this song might be the most fun to play on guitar, even without a backing track its super fun to jam to. absolutely love it
ikrrrr. i always fck it up around 2:48, i just cant get that rhythm down for some reason
I really like playing it on my bass I don't have it fully memorized but when I can play it it's fun
OMFG I HAVE SPENT YEARS LOOKING FOR THIS SONG!!! I JUST REMEMBERED IT AS A VIDEO I WATCHED ON VH1 OR MTV PLAYING ON MY TV WHILE I WAS GETTING READY TO GO TO MY HIGH SCHOOL. I FINALLY FOUND THE FREAKING BAND THAT SINGS THIS!!! I REMEMBER THE SOLO GUITAR!!! JUST AMAZING!!! AND THE LEAD SINGER VOICE!!! UGH I AM SO STOKED HAHA I CANT BELIEVE I FINALLY FOUND THIS FUCKING BAND!!!
same
heard it on ssx on tour, but didnt remember the lyrics, tried some musics of the OST but none was this one, then i saw 4 days ago something about ssx and remebered it again, then the first music i tried while doing another search for the ost was this one
Renan Nascimento I’m with you! 🙏
Welcome to the fucked up god damn family
Yayyy!
Better feeling than sex right? xD
My alarm in the morning for the 7 years until now 😅
Гениально и шедеврально!!! Наслаждаюсь песней до настоящего времени. Припев космический и фантастический!!!❤
If 2005 was a music video, this would be it
Year I was born
@@CruddySpark115 Same
Sad part dimebag darrell died 04
3 years before I was born and im living in that time
That moment when your dad sits you down at 25 and tells you about the time Avenged Sevenfold shot a music video inside the strip club he was a bouncer at..... Newfound respect for the old man lol
Club was called the glitter gulch. Hole in the wall on Fremont street in Vegas lol
+rep
My dad went there a few times and said that he tried to talk to the bouncer I don't know if he was drunk or not tho.
That's awesome
Who hasn’t been to the ol’ glitiz
I brushed passed Satan himself that night in the hallway
The drums in this are so incredible. No words can describe the talent the Rev had and what he gave us! Rest in Peace to the legend.
