    So I had a pretty similar reaction the first time I listened to the song, but I kept finding myself wanting to go back and listen to it again, and now I find myself really enjoying this song. This song is definitely one that takes multiple listens to appreciate, but it really starts to grow on you.

    I feel so differently about your comment calling it safe, i felt it was such a risky move to release something so evolutionary and progressive. It's cryptic and existential and the more I listen the more attached I am to the song. It's technical in its key changes and arpeggios, the solo feels almost classical, the corral style vocals in the end of the pre-chorus, leading into the dark, muted "Nobody" in the refrain just does something to me, man.

    I had a similar take after listening to Nobody. It took me a few spins to really get a feel for the pacing of the track. I will say tho, it grows on you significantly after each listen.

    Pieces of this do sound familiar to me. Their self-titled album had shades of ballsy experimental and odd combinations (Matt using autotune on the song Lost, Little Piece of Heaven being batshit, Dear God being a country song), City of Evil had a LOT of orchestra use (and Nobody has that low brass that I'm pretty sure was trombones, plus all those strings) - Afterlife had those barbershop quarter type harmonies... It really feels like they're taking everything they dabbled in previously and the spacey, trancy vibe of The Stage and just smooshed it all together - personally, I think it's pretty goddamned funny that they're sending this one out first.
    I keep thinking about how absolutely insane this is going to sound on a big stage, though, it sounds like a show opener to me.

    • @andikardian9014

      they actually doing experiment a lot in every their album, so we listen to 7 to 8 different sounds from them.

    As a fellow long time A7X fan, my first listen was the same as yours. I wasn't sure, but I think that's because my expectation was for a more traditional A7X itch. A few more listens and I love it! It's right on par with the rest of their catalog! Excited as HELL for the rest of the album. Love the channel dudes!!!

    About the brass parts. The Rev and Syn had a side band called Pinkly Smooth, in which Rev had the majority of artistic freedom. If you listen to them, this song will mean a lot more. It almost even feels like a tribute to Rev, with The lyrics, and throwing in his style. Just a theory, but enough to convince me.
    Disregard. I just watched Cosmic, and the theory is confirmed, for at least those two. I'm about to listen to the album to see if the whole thing is a tribute. Also, I think the guys may have been dabbling in hallucinogenics a bit.
    Second edit: Just finished the album. Both theories absolutely confirmed.

    This was my feeling hearing the Stage, it took a long time for me to get in to The Stage and just realize its part of this "every album is different" of A7X and its a progression of experimentation with them. So going in to Nobody, not a huge shocker IMO.

    During the lead up to the new music they had discussed how this would be inspired and influenced by Kanye. Matt has some pretty good flow going at times, trap like percussion, the brass! It’s seriously cool stuff yet still Avenged.

    My first time listening:
    M. Shadows vocals: Oh, he loose his voice, this vocals are so different, i hate this kind of vocals.
    Syn Gates' riffs: What a fuck? I miss Citty of Evil guitars, i'm so upset.
    Video Clip: One more video game stuff? lol
    Song Style: WTF? Its not A7x! Is there Rap in the middle of song? Whats this mix? Didnt like this at all, its very confusing.
    Syn's solos: Ok, i liked this, it's the only good part for sure, thank you Syn.
    Third time Listening:
    M. Shadows Vocals: I fucking love Shadows voice, fit perfectly with the music! How can he sings with vocal cords problems? He is so amazing! My favourite singer since I knew him.
    Syn gates' riff: OMG this riff is so deep and so simple at the same time! Love it.
    Video Clip: Holy fuck, I love how do they pass such a philosophical message! We have to be better people, the world is sick.
    Song Style: I didnt like this at first, but the song grew on me, i can't stop listening this masterpiece.
    Syn's solo: I think it's easily a top 3 solo ever done in history. No one can disagree.

    They weren't hacked and it wasn't marketing either Matt had this crazy idea for the bat country fan base to put on a treasure hunt with clues he'd drop on his discord which could include websites and what not. This Album Life is nothing but a dream is supposed to through off everyone he was saying there's the same beat you hear in the stage. He wanted to take a chance that other bands wouldn't. And the constant high hat is actually Brooks Wackerman along with the drumming. To conclude this, the horns you hear Matt actually went to Sony studios and stuck mics 🎤 in the bells as deep as could to throw everyone one off he did this on purpose to get a reaction from everyone basically.

    • @MatandChelsReact
